SourceFeatures and limits
Documented differences. An unverified answer means we do not have enough evidence.
Figma
Desktop apps cover Windows and macOS with browser access and separate mobile apps.
Canva
Browser access plus desktop and mobile apps; offline support is narrower than general app availability.
Offline use
Figma
Only loaded pages remain available during a lost connection; offline changes synchronize later.
Canva
Prepare existing designs on each device. Supported routes include desktop browsers, desktop app and Android; iOS/iPad apps are excluded.
Collaboration
Figma
Starter supports collaborative work on up to three files with three pages each and unlimited participants.
Canva
The current plan comparison documents live collaboration, comments and link sharing; Business adds team administration.
Export
Figma
Static exports and local .fig copies are supported. Owners can restrict copying or sharing.
Canva
JPG, PNG, SVG, PDF and presentation exports are documented. Some quality, transparency and CMYK controls require eligible plans.
Project portability
