Canva also has a free content library with over 2 million assets, including royalty-free images, watermark-free videos, and pre-licensed audio. It includes AI-powered tools like Magic Design, Magic Edit, and Magic Eraser. Canva Pro, the premium version, offers access to premium templates, images, videos, and design elements. It includes features like Background Remover, Magic Resize, and Brand Hub. It also enables scheduling posts for Instagram and Facebook.










Comments and Reviews
Canva is the answer for those who need to design something quickly and throw something together without a hassle. It is extremely easy to use and design a variety of things, be it brochures, logos, images or even business cards. Unlike other graphic design programs out there, this one requires very little learning - which makes it a winner in my book. It's beauty lies in stripping all the complex tools and instructions to making something even a child in kindergarten can use.
Another "web app" that can't perform even a single task without making an account, or of course giving them one of your personal accounts from another site like google.
This is not appropriate, private or secure.
Users have option to use email and it's very clear in 2022 at this page: https://www.canva.com/signup.

Has an AI option
Canva has been a huge help in so many areas of my life! I’ve used it to create everything from Valentine’s and birthday cards to professional presentations for work. The templates are beautiful, easy to customize, and save me so much time.
Versatile and has many, many, many features that you wouldn't even think of. Creating on Canva is limitless.
