This article is for Canva users accessing Affinity through a verified Education or Nonprofit account.
Once you’ve downloaded and installed your chosen Affinity app(s), you’ll be prompted to sign in when launching the app for the first time:
- On the first sign-in prompt, select Sign in with Canva.
- Select Sign in with Canva again. You’ll be redirected to a page where you can authorise Affinity to access your Canva account.
- Select Allow. A pop-up window should appear on your browser.
- Select Open Affinity Designer 2.app (or other app). You should see a welcome message on the Affinity app.
You’re now ready to start creating in Affinity. Not sure where to start? Our resources page has everything you need to get up and running, including quick start guides, video tutorials and plenty more.
Please note: If you're not seeing the Sign in with Canva button, please make sure you've downloaded and installed v2.5.5 or later of the Affinity apps. It will also not show for users located in China.
