Popular online graphic design platform, Canva, experienced a significant outage on Monday, leaving millions of users worldwide unable to access their accounts or complete ongoing projects.
The disruption sparked frustration among professionals, content creators, and businesses who rely on the platform for daily design tasks, marketing materials, and social media content.
In a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), Canva acknowledged the issue and assured users that efforts were underway to restore service.
“Not the ideal situation right now, but we’re working on it. You can check canvastatus.com for updates. We’ll keep you posted!” the company said.
Reports indicated that both desktop and mobile users were affected, with error messages, slow loading times, and complete inaccessibility of the platform.
Canva, which has over 170 million monthly active users across more than 190 countries, is widely used by individuals, small businesses, and media organisations for digital design and content creation.
As of this report, Canva had not disclosed the cause of the outage or provided an estimated time for full service restoration.
