Canva Updates

Magic Layers is an AI-powered tool that turns flat images into fully editable design layers. It lets you select and edit individual elements in an image without recreating the design, while preserving layout and visual hierarchy. It works best on graphic designs, illustrations, and stylized visuals, meaning that you can remove parts from previously 'flat' pictures!

Magic Insight responses are evolving into clear, explanatory narratives inside of Canva Sheets. Users will receive not just formulas and charts, but also the context and story behind them.

Education templates now feature 3D elements, allowing teachers and students to explore complex subjects like planets and anatomy in an interactive and engaging way. Use any of their lessons or lesson resources free of charge!
