You can add the Google Drive app, and your Canisius Google Drive, to your iPhone or iPad.  This makes it easier to access files you store there for classes or other work at the college.  Also, you can upload photos, video, and other media you create using your iOS device, for use in your Canisius Google Drive.

Instructions

Installing the Google Drive app.

If you do not have the Google Drive app installed, go to iOS App Store to get it.  

In the iOS App Store, search for Google Drive.  Be certain you choose and install Google's own Google Drive App (Google LLC), and not a third-party app.

Tapping either will install Google Drive to your Device.

Log into the Google Drive App

Once you've installed the app, log into it.  This can either add it as the first or only Google account, or add it in addition to a private gmail account.  (The app will then let you easily switch between accounts and corresponding drives.)

When Google asks you for your email, use 

(your username)@my.canisius.edu

The "my." is important because it turns your email address into a special identifier Google uses for your Canisius account.

Once you click "Next" on the Google Login screen, you'll see the familiar Canisius login screen, where you can use your Canisius College username (not email address) and password:
