Canva down: Users unable to upload and edit images
Follow Us
Canva, one of the most popular graphic design platforms, is facing a worldwide outage. On DownDetector, an online outage monitoring platform, users started reporting issues with Canva from around 13:30 IST, with the volume of reports rising steadily since. The problems appear to centre on image uploads, with users unable to add new images to their designs or access editing functions. At the time of writing, the platform had recorded 127 reports on DownDetector, with the number continuing to climb. Despite the spike in complaints, the official Canva status page at canvastatus.com shows all systems as operational, with no acknowledgement of any ongoing incident. Users have taken to X to flag the issue directly, with complaints coming in from India and other markets, suggesting this is not limited to a single region.

Canva has not issued any official statement regarding the outage at the time of publishing. Users experiencing problems will need to wait until the company identifies and resolves the issue. We will update this story as more information becomes available.
