Canvas Updates: Name Pronunciation, Canvas Inbox Features

September 04, 2024

Ball State Canvas users can now add name pronunciation to their profile, a signature to Canvas Inbox, and an auto response to Canvas Inbox. 

To add name pronunciation to your profile in Canvas, select Account > Profile. Click the three dots on the right side, then select Edit Profile. Enter phonetic text in the Name Pronunciation field, then select Save Profile. 

To add a signature and/or auto response to your Canvas Inbox, select Inbox, then click the gear icon (Inbox Settings) in the top-right corner. In Inbox settings, you can set an auto response, including start and end times, subject line, and message. You can also enable a signature that will display at the end of all Canvas Inbox messages. 

If you have questions about these features, you can contact Canvas Support through the Help menu in Canvas.
