Description:
When an instructor has hidden an Original Assignment in My Grades, students cannot continue a saved attempt in the Blackboard app on Android devices.
Steps to Repeat:
  1. As an instructor in an Original course, create an Assignment. In the "Display of Grades" section, uncheck "Show to students in My Grades".
  2. As a student on an Android device, log in to the Blackboard app.
  3. Go to the Assignment from the above course.
  4. Start an attempt > Save a draft > Continue the attempt
Observed Behavior

"It looks like you started this attempt on another device. Would you like to continue it now?" Tapping "Ok" starts a loop back to the continue attempt option, which leads back to this message.

It looks like you started this attempt on another device. Would you like to continue it now?

Expected Behavior

The student can successfully continue the attempt.

Until this issue is resolved in the Blackboard app, students can continue their Assignment attempts in web Learn.
