Docket

Canvas Student app alternative

Canvas, organized around your week.

The Canvas Student app is organized by class. Docket is organized by what's due, so you open it and see your whole week across every class.

Docket showing a week of work from every Canvas class

What's different

  • One week, every class: no clicking into each course to find what's due.
  • Turn in from anywhere: open an assignment from your list or calendar and submit it.
  • What-if grades: try scores and see what they'd do to your grade, using your class's real weights.
  • One inbox: announcements, teacher messages and comments on your work together.
  • Your own tasks and calendars next to your assignments.
  • Looks the way you like: backgrounds, dark mode, streaks and rewards.

Use both

You don't have to give anything up. Keep the Canvas app for what you like about it, and use Docket to plan your week. Anything you do in one shows up in the other.

Questions

Does Docket replace Canvas?

No. Your school still uses Canvas, and Docket reads from it. Docket is a different way to see and do your work, built around your week instead of each class.

Can I still turn things in?

Yes. Files, text, links and recordings go straight to Canvas, the same as turning them in there.

Is there a phone app?

Docket works in your phone's browser. Add it to your home screen and it opens like an app, with notifications.

Is Docket made by Instructure?

No. A student made Docket. It isn't affiliated with Instructure, the company behind Canvas.
