Missing Tools in Canva – where are they now?

Canva is a huge platform that services 280 million daily users creating visual content. As such they have entire teams of product designers working on improving features and adding new features at any time.

Sometimes this means that features or tools within Canva will moved and you might think you have missing tools in Canva.

Or perhaps they are in the same place but you need to access them slightly differently.

Either way, it's good to know when something changes. In this post, we'll keep you updated on where some of your favorites have gone. Our community asked, so we've answered!

Let's jump in and look at some of your favorite tools and features in Canva, and where to find them now! 

1. Where have Styles & Layouts gone in Canva?

Styles in Canva are one of my favorite features – letting me instantly add my brand colors to any design (and shuffle until you find a combination you like). It works for fonts too. They've moved and in this video, I show you were (they haven't moved far!). And Layouts have moved to the same place, so be sure to check out that part of the video below as well. 

2. Where is Canva's Content Planner?

Where is the Content Planner in Canva? Yes it’s moved but it’s super quick to find and in this video I share where Canva’s Content Planner lives now and how to find it. I also share how to schedule content for the future to save time and some other cool features in Canva to help you with your social media scheduling.

Find Canva's Content Planner for scheduling and managing your content!

3. Where is my Starred Folder in Canva?

Where is the Starred Folder in Canva? In this video I share where to find your Canva Starred Folder or your Favorites Folder. When it comes to missing tools in Canva, this is one of the features we get asked the most about.

It hasn’t disappeared, it’s just moved!

I also share a HOT TIP for organizing your Starred Content so it doesn’t become a hot mess. Watch until the end!

4. Where are Photo Collections in Canva?

Where are Photo Collections in Canva? Did you even know that Canva has entire collections or sets of photos hidden in plain sight? In this video, I share how to find them and an awesome resource that includes over 220+ Photo Collections ready to use (spoiler alert: they aren’t that easy to find on your own… or should I say it takes a lot of effort).

Hint: this might be one of the missing tools in Canva you didn't know you were missing. But once you discover it exists, you'll use it a LOT! Our team uses these every day and we love them.

5. Where is Magic Design in Canva?

Where is the Canva's Magic Design in Canva? In this video I share where to find Canva Magic Design for Images now that the way to access it has changed. It hasn't disappeared, it’s just moved.

Struggling to find Magic Design in Canva? It has moved and changed a little…

Phew! Feel beter now that you've found some of your faves again in Canva? Nobody has time to go hunting for things when you're busy and want to create content. So hopefully this post has helped you find the tools and features you need in Canva.

Need Canva Pro?

Many of these features are better with Canva Pro. As you will see from the videos, Canva's Content Planner is a Pro Feature in Canva and Canva Magic Design gives you a lot more credits if you have a Canva Pro account.
