I know the new Canva Glow Up changes have been frustrating for a lot of you, and I completely understand how a redesigned interface can throw off your workflow.
While you may no longer be able to revert to the pre-Glow Up version of the interface, there is something you can do: share feedback with Canva in the hopes that if enough users express the same concerns, it may lead to future adjustments.
In fact, Canva has already made changes based on user feedback – they recently moved the editing panel back to the left side of the page after initially shifting it to the right.
I’ve just put together a quick video showing you exactly where to go to submit your feedback and why it’s important to be specific about how the changes are affecting your experience.

I know many of you have been expressing frustration with Canva’s new Glow Up interface, and I completely understand how difficult it can be to adjust when changes impact your workflow. Adapting to a new design tool setup can be challenging, especially when it feels like things have been moved or shifted around in ways that disrupt your creative process.
That said, I want to remind you that if you’re finding the new interface problematic, the best way to let Canva know is by sharing your detailed feedback directly with them. In the lower-left corner of your Canva dashboard, you’ll see a “Glow Up” icon. This is where you can submit your thoughts, concerns, and suggestions about the new interface. Canva really does listen to these comments – it’s how they’ve already made some adjustments, like moving the editing panel back to the left side after initially switching it to the right.
When providing feedback, I recommend being as specific as possible. Instead of just saying that you don’t like the changes, try explaining how the new interface is affecting your workflow.
For example, are you finding it harder to locate certain tools? Has the redesign slowed down your process in any way? By highlighting the exact challenges you’re facing, you’re helping Canva understand how these changes are affecting real users like yourself.
Specificity is important because it’ll give Canva the context they need to make informed decisions about potential updates.
If they receive broad comments like “I don’t like the new interface,” it’s harder for them to identify exactly what’s wrong. However, if you’re able to point out particular issues, such as difficulty in locating certain tools or how a feature used to be more accessible in the previous layout, that gives them actionable insight into how these changes are impacting your experience.
The more detailed and consistent the feedback they receive from users, the better equipped Canva is to address the most common concerns and make adjustments that better serve their community. I encourage you to take a moment to share your experience with them.
