Canvas Helper is a lightweight browser extension designed for people who spend a lot of time working inside quiz pages on Canvas LMS. It provides small workflow utilities that help reduce repetitive actions and keep your quiz experience more organized, without requiring you to leave the page you are already using.
The goal of Canvas Helper is simple: support a smoother quiz workflow by adding optional, in-page tools that work alongside the existing Canvas LMS interface.
Features
Answer Saver for multi-attempt quizzes When a quiz allows multiple attempts, Canvas Helper helps you review and organize your own previous submissions, making it easier to stay consistent across attempts.
Optional in-page controls A small on-page toolbar can be enabled on relevant quiz pages to access features quickly. It can be hidden at any time to keep the page clean.
Configurable behavior Settings allow you to control where the extension runs and where it remains inactive, so it only appears when you want it.
Browser-based tool Works as a browser extension and does not require a separate platform or external interface.

FAQ
Q: Is Canvas Helper only for quiz pages? A: The extension is optimized for quiz workflows, but its behavior can be adjusted based on your preferences.

Q: What does “workflow hack” mean here? A: It refers to small productivity and organization tools that reduce friction while working through quizzes, not changes to the platform itself.
