Accessible Canva: Progress over Perfection


Listen Later

For years, Canva has been one of the most widely used tools and one of the most challenging when it comes to accessibility, so when we started hearing that improvements had been made, we were skeptical. Then we opened a file. In this episode, we take a first look at Canva's latest accessibility updates and walk through what's actually changed. From real-time color contrast feedback to improved tagging and built-in accessibility checks, there are some genuinely meaningful steps forward. But it's not perfect. We also dig into where things still fall short, including reading order challenges and list behavior that can impact screen reader users, because accessibility isn't about passing a checker, it's about creating an experience that actually works.

If you've ever struggled to balance real-world tools with accessibility expectations, this is a conversation you'll want to hear.
