Canva has recently provided an update to the application by including three themed options: dark, light, and sync with the system. So the Canva users can either choose the dark mode option or choose the sync with the system option, so it adapts to the system settings by default. The mobile and desktop devices have a built-in dark mode option in the display setting where the users will be able to make the changes to the complete look and feel display screen.
Quick Guide: Open the Canva app → go to Settings → select the Theme option → choose the Dark theme.
