An iPad release with optional AI tools
MacRumors reported the app’s release on November 2. Canva’s newsroom index dates its own announcement November 3, so the source publication date differs from the availability date recorded here. Both describe an app available in the App Store. [1][2][3]
Canva says AI Studio includes generative expansion, upscaling, motion-blur and noise reduction, and splitting a flat image into editable layers. The cited sources report Canva’s capability claims rather than hands-on validation. Those tools require a Canva premium account; the core design tools are free for individuals, with a free Canva account required to use the app. [1][2]
