Utilizing a qualitative approach with phenomenological types, the research methodology focuses on the students' actual experiences. Both questionnaires and interviews, which are descriptive qualitative methods, were used to gather data. The results show that students have a positive view of Canva, believing it to be easy to use, beneficial in streamlining the writing process, and successful in illustrating story ideas. Although there are certain obstacles, like problems choosing a typeface, students acknowledge that Canva has a big influence on their writing and creativity. Canva is a useful tool for improving students' narrative retelling skills and encouraging successful communication in the digital age, according to the study's conclusion.
