      Canva apps appears to be in black/grey background

      Some Canva apps appear in black or grey, making the elements underneath difficult to see. As a workaround, we suggest changing your Canva theme from Light to Dark under the Accessibility: https://www.canva.com/settings/accessibility

    What to do next

    • Verify your own services recovered cleanly. Some upstream outages leave queues or caches in a degraded state, run smoke tests before declaring green internally.
    • Save the post-mortem. Vendors usually publish a detailed RCA 1-3 days later. We'll add it to this page when it appears.
    • Watch the provider going forward. Follow Canva's status feed →

    GlobalOutageMap aggregates publicly reported signals. We never claim authoritative status, always cross-check the provider's official channel before making business decisions.
