<p><em><strong>Canva Down: </strong></em>Canva appears to be experiencing a possible outage, with users reporting problems logging in, uploading images, and downloading designs. While Downdetector currently shows a small spike with around 71 reports, complaints are rapidly increasing on X (formerly Twitter). Some users, including our colleagues, say they are temporarily switching to alternative design tools.<img style=”display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;” src=”https://feeds.abplive.com/onecms/images/uploaded-images/2026/03/12/46be5f18f22be405f77498e5a6826e3417732904138531297_original.png” /></p>
