Canva users are flooding social media with reports that the popular design platform is experiencing technical difficulties. Many are unable to view or save changes to their designs, prompting widespread frustration among users trying to complete projects.

The company acknowledged the issue on their official status page, stating they are “currently still investigating this issue” related to users being unable to view or save design changes. The incident report was posted about an hour ago, indicating the problem is ongoing.

Posts about the issue are piling up on X with reports coming in every minute. Some are expressing frustration about timing, with one user posting about trying to edit a “last minute project that is due at 11:59 and canva DOES NOT WANT TO WORK.”

Others are questioning whether the service is down entirely. Users from various countries have reported similar issues, so it’s clear that it’s a big problem that needs to be sorted ASAP! 

The official Canva account responded to user complaints, saying “We’re on it! We’re working as quickly as we can to get things back up and running. Check https://canvastatus.com for updates. Thank you!”

Since Canava has already confirmed that they are working on a fix, we’ll likely see the service up and running as usual within the next couple of hours, if not earlier. Nevertheless, we’ll keep an eye out for any further developments and will post an update here.
