Navigate the Canva mobile app
We've updated the Canva mobile app to make it easier to create designs, find your work, and access your favorite tools. Everything's now organized into five clear tabs at the bottom of your screen.
Get to know the updated mobile layout
The Canva mobile app now has a refreshed navigation with five main tabs:
- Canva AI: Generate and edit designs, and brainstorm ideas
- Create: Start new designs with Quick Create shortcuts (formerly Home)
- Templates: Browse and search design templates
- Your Designs: Find all your designs, including recent work (formerly Projects)
- More: Access your Profile, Brand Kits, Apps, and other features
We're rolling out navigation changes gradually, so some steps in this Help article may not accurately reflect what you see in the app. If you can't find Canva AI, your profile photo, or your Print cart on the homepage, go to More.

FAQs
Can I go back to the old menu?
You can't switch back to the old menu. The updated menu is now standard for all Canva mobile users and is designed to help you find and create designs faster.
Why does the menu look different on some pages?
We're updating pages gradually, so you might see the new menu on some pages but not others. This is temporary while we roll out the changes.
