This is the most useful extension. I reached out to the developer and he told me that he submitted an update to work with the updated canvas this week. It is just waiting on google review. I can't wait to have this extension running again. It saves me a lot of frustration when grading.

This has been such a time-saver! But, Canvas did an update and the betterizer doesn't work anymore. Can this be updated? (Jan 2026). Thank you!

There doesn't seem to be a place to contact the developers, but the recent changes that canvas has made are making my workflow more difficult and time consuming. I was wondering if betterizer is going to update so that I can enter a grade and hit enter to move to the next submission in speedgrader. I am continually frustrated by not being able to do this anymore. Other than it not being updated, it has been a really good extension. Guess I will go over to instructure and start a thread about canvas creating this functionality.

For some reason several of the speedgrader features of this extension don't work anymore. When I enter the grade for the student and press enter now, it won't automatically go to the next student to grade. So now I am super sad this extension does not work.

Was my favorite extension that I used every single day until recently. Not sure if it was my district or Canvas itself, but now several of the speedgrader features of this extension don't work anymore.

This extension used to work. I've tried downloading it on three different computers, and it doesn't work on any of them anymore. It's a great concept and I appreciated having it when it worked properly. Hopefully the developer can get it working again soon!

So, it's a good concept but there is little in the way of details on just how to best use the features. Usually this stuff is common sense, but in this case I'm not so sure. For example, how do leave my canned comments on the document itself? Putting everything in the comment section is a joke. Also, what the hell does "Enable Autofocus Gradebox" mean?
