Get to the official Canva page at www.canva.com to start. If you have a smartphone or computer, you can also get the Canva app from the app store for that device. Since the app is available for both iOS and Android, it should work on most devices.

There is a big button on the Canva homepage or app starting screen that says "Sign Up," "Get Started," or "Try Canva Free." If you click this button, you'll be taken to the registration page where you can start creating your account.
Canva gives users a choice of ways to make an account, so they can suit their needs. Here's how to sign up:

Each way has its own benefits, so which one you choose will rely on your personal taste and how well you want to connect to other platforms.
If you want to use your email address to sign up, you'll need to fill out a form. This is what you'll usually give:
Most of this information is taken from your current account when you sign up through Google, Facebook, or Apple. This saves you time.
Canva will ask you to agree to their terms of service and privacy policy before you can move forward. You should read these quickly to get a sense of how Canva handles your information and what to expect from their site. To move forward, check the box or click the "Confirm" button when you're ready.
Canva may ask you to confirm your email address before they let you finish the signup process. If this step is needed, you'll get an email with a link to do it. Open the email and click on the link inside. This will take you to Canva, where your account is now fully enabled.
Once you've made an account, Canva will ask you to describe how you want to use the site. Usually, these are the choices:
By letting you pick an account type, Canva can customize your experience by giving you the right templates, tools, and features.
Canva may offer you the chance to upgrade to Canva Pro, Canva for Teams, or Canva for Education after you have set up your account. The free version has a lot of useful tools, but upgrading gives you access to paid templates, a huge media library, and extra features like brand kits and content planning. You can start with the free plan if you're not sure and then upgrade if you need to.
It's easy to log in after creating an account. You can enter your email address and password, Google, Facebook, or Apple ID when you go back to the Canva website or open the app and click "Log In." If you choose to save your login information, a lot of browsers and gadgets can do it for you so you can get to it faster.

I'd now like to talk a little about the Canva app for phones. And since most people now do jobs and everyday things on their phones instead of computers, you should also set up this app. You can log in to both the PC and web versions of Canva with the same information. All of your designs uploads, photos, and logos will be synced across once you do this. This means that you can view anything you make on your computer through the app on your phone. Just a few small things are different, and the website doesn't have all of the tools that the app does. The screen size is the only clear change between them. At our desks and computers, we can see a lot more and make plans for bigger projects. The small screen on your phone makes it easy to get designs, organize things, and post to social media while you're out and about. You can get the Canva app for your phone from either the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. It's likely to be an ad at the top of the page. Pick Canva, and then use your Canva login to log in.

Then it will open on your phone and show you this screen:

The PC version of Canva is a little different from the mobile version in the ways below:


Tap the little purple circle in the bottom left corner of the screen while you're designing to get to the elements. A white circle with a number in a square inside it is on the right side of the screen. This lets you see all of your pages at once:

You can start making content as soon as you finish making your profile. To do this, click "Create" and pick the kind of content you want to create. Canva lets you make many kinds of content, like posts for social media, slideshows, flyers, and more. If you're going to write something, give it a title and a short description. The title should be short and clear, and the description should help people understand what the material is about.
If you want your account name to show up in Canva emails (for example, when you invite team members to a design or share it), you should only use letters and not numbers or special characters.
You get a public profile where people can see your assets and templates as a Canva Creator. To promote your business, make changes to your page's information.
There is a link to your profile at the top of the page that you can click to see it.
Your display name and the name of your URL can't be the same. Give each one a different name.
To change your profile picture, go to the homepage and click on your account icon. Then, click on your account icon again to add your picture.
Make sure you're in the brand of either Creator or Contributor.
next to it, click to switch to it. The page will then refresh.If you can't see your Contributor brand under Switch Teams, make sure you're logged in to the right account.
