It is very accessible on the computer, and on IOS.
I like it a lot, and it is very easy to navigate.

Hi all! 
Canvis is accessible on an iphone as well. I used it before I graduated from my local community college. I looked at grades and I used it for exploration as well. I don't know if it's accessible on a Mack computer, but I know it's accessible on an iphone with Voice Over. I also used it on a computer but my computer is a Window's computer, so I used JAWS on it. Speaking of which, Canvis is accessible with both JAWS and NVDA.

I go to a community college and their Canvas platform is accessible with JAWS. I'm not really good with using Canvas with VoiceOver, but the discussions, modules, and grades are accessible. I'm still learning about looking at grades but it's good.
