Is Canva free?
Canva includes a free plan that includes a limited selection of templates, graphics, and fonts for designing social media images, videos, or multimedia presentations. We think the free plan is more than enough for beginners, but should you need more, a paid subscription gets you premium features and more design elements.
What file types can I use to export my Canva designs?
Canva allows you to export in several file formats, including JPEG, PDF, SVG for images, PDF and PPTX for documents and MP4 or GIF for videos.
Which images can I upload to Canva?
Canva accepts .jpg, .png, and .svg files. If your image is in a different format, you’ll need to convert it first.
Can someone else edit my designs?
Yes, Canva offers a collaboration feature that allows multiple people to work on the same design at the same time when using a Canva for Teams account.

We’re supercharging the Canva Visual Suite with magical new features to make your work faster, easier, and a whole lot more fun – providing a burst of speed and creative inspiration that empower teams to take their brand to the next level.
Canva was made possible by exciting evolutions in technology. In fact, it was the convergence of HTML5 and personal devices that made it possible for us to start democratizing design a decade ago. Today, the huge advancements we’re seeing with artificial intelligence have given us the opportunity to once again reimagine the design process.
If you’re an avid Canva user, you might’ve noticed some of the ways we’ve already been harnessing this technology with the recent launches of image generator Text to Image and copywriting assistant Magic Write. Today, we’re excited to introduce a whole new range of magical features that supercharge the Visual Suite and empower creative teams to not only work faster, but also smarter.
In September, we focused on what you could design with Canva. The introduction of our Visual Suite unlocked entirely new types of design – from websites to whiteboards. Now, we’re turning our attention to how you design. These are some of the most innovative features we’ve launched in Canva’s history – with the goal of making the creative journey more accessible, more customized, and more on-brand than ever before. Best of all, they’re also immensely fun to use.
Visualize your design ideas with Magic Design
If you’re struggling with the right design for an Instagram post, presentation, event poster or project one-pager, Magic Design breaks the logjam and gets you started. Simply upload an image or select a style and Magic Design whips up a curated selection of templates made just for you. It’s the easiest way to visualize any design, spark inspiration or discover templates that are uniquely yours.
Lay out your design in style
Choosing the right layout and overall style for your work can be an important decision, so we’re introducing two tools that do the heavy lifting for you. Layouts gives you multiple professional layout suggestions based on your current content, then automatically applies that to your design when you select the one that fits best.
Let your imagination flow with Draw
We might not all be born great artists, but sometimes we still need to sketch a diagram, freely markup designs, or add bespoke visual elements to a design. After numerous requests from our community, we’re excited to be introducing a new tool called Draw that lets you unleash your creativity by sketching your ideas.
Magic Write just got even more magical
Few things are more frustrating than staring at a blank screen and waiting for inspiration to strike. That’s why we introduced Magic Write, an AI-powered copywriting assistant for Canva Docs that helps to ease writer’s block and makes writing quicker by generating text based on your prompt.
Do more with Text to Image
Since our AI-powered image generator, Text to Image, was launched last year, our community has watched their words and phrases transform into beautiful images over 60 million times. Now, the next evolution of Text to Image is here. Generated images are much higher quality at over 2K, generation times have reduced 68%, and we’ve introduced 10+ creative new image styles. It’s also now available across all languages, and we’ve built a multi-layered set of mechanisms to further improve trust and safety.
Create the perfect image
Strong and captivating images are essential for bringing your designs to life, but sometimes your image needs a few tweaks to make it just right. Our new photo editing tools unlock a powerful and fun way to get picture-perfect results by adding, removing, or changing specific parts of an image with just a few clicks.
Create professional videos with Beat Sync
Video content is a priority across all channels these days, and nothing brings a great video to life like an awesome tune. Syncing video to a beat is one of the hardest parts of video editing, but we’re here to solve that with the launch of Beat Sync. With Beat Sync in Canva Video, you can automatically align clips to the beat of the music, making your videos look slick and professional, effortlessly.
Bring designs to life with animation
Animations are a charming way to engage an audience, but they’re also challenging to get right. With our new Create an Animation feature, watch your ideas come to life by dragging an element across the screen to record the path you want to follow, then hit play and watch the magic happen.
Bring your copy to the world with Translate
Imagine you’ve spent several days creating an amazing social media asset for your company and you’re ready to share it with the world – except, most of the world doesn’t speak your language. So much of our work these days is global, and translating text is time-consuming. We’re now closing the language gap with Translate, a new feature that instantly converts your document or design into any of 100+ languages we’ve made available. Whether you need a design in Japanese, Spanish or Arabic, we’ve got you covered.
