New Canva users installing the app cannot find where to enter a prompt or start creating, with the AI-first interface providing no clear onboarding path. Misleading app store descriptions set expectations the UI does not fulfill, leading to immediate uninstalls. The discoverability gap disproportionately affects non-technical users who expected a simpler tool.
