Canva’s desktop app lets you create awesome graphics, presentations, and more with simple drag-and-drop tools, no design skills needed.

It mirrors the browser experience but adds desktop features like system notifications, offline access, and better multitasking with tabbed editing.

Started in 2013 as a web-based design tool, it is now used by more than 220 million users. The desktop app arrived around 2020, bringing its template library and collaboration features into a dedicated workspace.

Updates now include AI-powered tools, performance tweaks like Memory Saver, and deeper OS integration, making it a go-to for both beginners and professionals.

Canva is considered as a friendly design studio living right on your Windows PC. It helps you create anything – social posts, resumes, YouTube thumbnails, even short videos – by dragging and dropping.

No design skills needed. Just pick a template, add your text or photos, and you’re done.
