Canvas Helps One Organization in Their Mission to Restore Eyesight in Children.
Jonathon Owens is an Advertising Art Director for a prominent international advertising agency, working in Sydney, Australia.
Jonathon has a degenerative eye disease, which is gradually reducing his central focus. “I think about the implications of losing my vision daily and it terrifies me. I’m lucky that my vision will not completely disappear, but millions of children around the world are losing their eyesight unnecessarily every day. I want to help change this.”

Transitioning Paper Forms into Mobile Forms: The Canvas Custom PDF Service
As a mobile App Consultant, I speak to hundreds of current and potential clients every week who ask be about the process of going paperless using Canvas. I explain that we at Canvas can take almost all of your current paper forms, and covert them over to mobile applications using our Send Us Your Form service, or SUYF for short. The first form we convert is always FREE, and every form after that is only $50. But you always have the option of using the Canvas Application Store and downloading any pre-made mobile form, or simply just making a form from scratch using our robust App Builder.
App Building Two Cents’ Worth: Use List Screens to Repeat a Section of your App or Add Line Items
We frequently get questions here at Canvas that sound something like this...
- Can I copy and paste fields and screens?
- How do I repeat a section of my Canvas app?
- How does my mobile worker enter multiple line items on my work order/invoice/service ticket?
- What is a "list" screen?
So I thought I would answer all of these questions in one fell swoop and add a powerful tool to your Canvas app building toolkit! List Screens allow you to repeat a single screen (Simple List) or multiple screens (Advanced List) giving your mobile workers the flexibility they need in the field to account for the fact that all jobs are different.
