To upgrade or install this release, users simply access their Canva account, with no separate software downloads or paid plan changes needed. The tool is available directly to all of Canva's more than 265 million monthly users. Access is provided across every pricing tier, including free accounts.
Users can verify access by opening their Canva account and checking for the Canva Code 2.0 feature. A key gotcha to keep in mind is assuming a paid subscription is required, but free accounts receive access alongside every other pricing tier. Once available, users can verify functionality by using plain-language prompts to build interactive websites, apps, and experiences.
