A. B. C. D: ANYBODY CAN DESIGN, with Canva!
Let me take you to a beautiful thing that many of you will still have as a nostalgic memory: Greeting cards! It was such an unforgettable experience of receiving and exchanging colorful and artistic greeting cards during special days. Making it sweet memories of 19’s kids, the digital world had replaced everything, most probably with a mobile app. But the significant number of mobile apps has always created confusion among smartphone users.
Let me directly come to the matter: which is the best app available in the Google play store for designing posters and greeting cards? I need not think much for an answer. I will give you three options: CANVA, CANVA, AND CANVA!! I tell this without any doubt, from my experience. Moreover, the Google play store also suggests that Canva be the editor’s choice when looking for an app to design Instagram posts, Facebook posts, greeting cards, etc..., for our personal and professional uses. But still, many people have not reached Canva, and many who went to Canva are not using it properly. To my knowledge, it’s due to some myths that people believe. It’s a pity!
By writing this blog, I aim to bring you out of those myths and make you shine like an evergreen star in social media with designs you create through canvas! So, let us begin.
What makes Canva the best app for poster design?
I will highlight five features that make Canva an all-time favorites for smartphone users.
1. Great non-pro like a pro.
The greatest myth we hear about Canva is that we can do nothing in it unless we pay money as a premium. Absolutely no! We can enjoy 90% of Canva’s features without paying a premium. So spend a tip only if you want complete freedom in access to features, photos, videos, etc.… and create social media posts, eBook cover, or video presentation.
2. Size that fits social media.
On the very first page itself, Canva provides us with different sizes like the Instagram post, Instagram story, Facebook post, etc...Select what you want to create and create posters in the apt size you need. Moreover, you have the option to create a page on your customized size.
3. Amazing templates.
When we select a size to create a poster, Canva provides us with so many templates created by them. Most people believe we have to always pay for it. This is the second myth about Canva. Remember, we need to pay for something in Canva (let it be templates, photos, audio, etc.…) only if a CROWN Symbol is shown with it. Or else, it would be free.
4. Awesome tools.
Canva provides us with a lot of tools. Do find time to explore each of them peacefully. It also offers free access to its photo, graphics, and audio library, which I bet you are the hugest of what you can find in any other app in the world. Note that in the case of audio, you have a minimal option for free.
5. Long living storage.
Don’t hesitate to sign in to Canva with your Google account. It will, in turn, help you a lot. This feature ensures access to the designs you have created even after a year, which you can edit, print or share. Moreover, Canva stores the media (photos and videos) that you have once uploaded for a project (find it in the ‘upload’ option) from your phone. It can be reused many times.
Keeping all these in mind, if you are ready to explore Canva, you are there to explore the best poster designing experience that your smartphone can ever give you! I hope you all enjoyed this article.
