Canva, the creative platform has been unavailable for the last few hours on Tuesday morning. Many users are having issues with saving their designs and even view their work on the website. The company has shared its official status with a post on X and even started an incident report for the outage which started on early Tuesday for users. 

At the time of writing, Canva also pointed out that a major outage is affecting editing, viewing and saving designs on the platform. It has been more than four hours since the outage was reported and we are gradually seeing some of the features working normally.

The Downdetector platform did not show massive reports from users in India but it confirms that 64 percent of the complaints are related to Canva running on the web and only 9 percent facing issues with the app. The outage seems to have affected people in the US far more with more than 600 outage reports from users in the region. 

Fair to say that losing Canva this early in the morning will hamper productivity and most people in the US have to wait for their work day to end. 

Canva recently announced that it has garnered 200 million monthly active users and continues to grow rapidly from its previous user base of 115 million users in the last couple of years. The company has recently made acquisitions of AI startups to build its suite of features and tools to entice more people to buy its premium offerings

Canva is the latest platform to team with Google for the Veo 3 AI model that lets you generate videos with audio using text prompts. The company has confirmed that using Veo 3 you can generate an 8-second video clip with audio in sync. Google unveiled the new video generation model at the I/O 2025 last month and it claims to offer high-quality visuals with ambient sound using basic prompts.
