Ratings and reviews

So... This worked great. Solid, good UI, totally a 5-star app. Then I had the audacity to need it for courses at two schools at once. Instead of, say, keeping me logged in to both and letting me switch with a simple drop-down (like email apps and websites have for over 25 years) it instead logs me out of both after short periods of inactivity--say, the time it takes to read a section and take a short quiz on a publisher's app. 1-star for failing at basic credential management.

I'm having a new issue after the update. when I tried to play a video that has an external link it says error has occurred. So instead I try turning my phone so I can see the video on the whole screen but it keeps going to video three of one. even though I'm playing 1. so I hear video one still playing while my view is a play option of the last lesson. it's all of my classes.

The app is incredibly slow. I would understand if it was something like many users using it in peak times, but it is slow for things that don't depend on other users, like typing a post or opening a menu for options. The sole purpose of canvas is to do online assignments, and I can't due to their atrocious performance. To add, my device isn't a problem because other apps with higher demand run fine.
