All 58 atomic check outcomes

Principle / checkStatusConfidenceEvidence or reason
respect-user-preferences
respects-color-scheme
issueshighThe dark-emulated screenshot is pixel-identical in appearance to the light capture, and the structure probe reports computed colorScheme “light”.
CANVA-001 medium: The public landing page does not adapt to the user’s dark color-scheme preference.
respect-user-preferences
respects-reduced-motion
issueshighUnder prefers-reduced-motion: reduce, getAnimations() returned 42 running animations, each with 1400 ms duration and an infinite iteration count (serialized as null).
CANVA-002 high: Continuous hero motion remains active when reduced motion is requested.
respect-user-preferences
respects-contrast
passmediumLighthouse accessibility scored 100 and color-contrast passed on the rendered homepage; the UI remained legible across sampled screenshots.
implement-natural-interactions
view-transitions
issueshighRendered DOM/CSS inspection found no view-transition-name or ::view-transition usage across the homepage snapshot, while the page presents carousels, menus and cross-page journeys.
CANVA-015 low: State and route changes do not expose View Transition styling on the sampled public pages.
implement-natural-interactions
scroll-driven-animations
passmediumRendered CSS contained animation-timeline declarations; layout/trace evidence found no sustained scroll task problem on the sampled landing page.
implement-natural-interactions
physical-gestures
passmediumRendered CSS contained scroll-snap and overscroll-behavior rules for carousel/scroll surfaces, providing platform-native gesture behavior.
provide-guided-navigation
scroll-state-aware-chrome
passmediumDesktop and mobile screenshots show compact, persistent navigation chrome that maintains orientation without covering the primary heading.
provide-guided-navigation
anchored-positioning
passmediumNo tooltip-style floating anchored surface was present in the sampled first-load states; menus did not visibly drift or clip.
provide-guided-navigation
directs-attention
passmediumThe landing and detail screenshots use a single prominent heading/CTA, and the presentation detail includes a Home > Presentations breadcrumb.
maximize-content-reduce-noise
no-intrusive-interruptions
issueshighDesktop and mobile screenshots show the cookie panel covering roughly half the viewport and hiding the primary call to action/content on home, templates, presentation and pricing pages.
CANVA-003 medium: The first-load cookie panel obscures most of the primary content on every sampled marketing page.
maximize-content-reduce-noise
semantic-dismissible-primitives
issueshighThe rendered DOM contains zero dialog and zero popover elements while the screenshot shows a blocking overlay.
CANVA-004 medium: The blocking consent overlay is not exposed with a native dialog or popover primitive.
maximize-content-reduce-noise
reduced-chrome
passmediumScreenshots show border-light content-led layouts with a compact header; outside consent, decorative visuals support the product message.
adapt-to-the-form-factor
responsive-no-horizontal-scroll
passmediumAt 360x800, home and templates reported scrollWidth 360, clientWidth 360 and zero horizontal overflow; viewport metadata is present.
adapt-to-the-form-factor
component-level-responsiveness
passmediumDOM/CSS inspection found an @container rule, and 360px evidence shows components reflow without horizontal overflow.
adapt-to-the-form-factor
input-modality-aware
passmediumLighthouse target-size passed; focus probing found native/3px focus treatments on representative links and controls.
support-core-task-success
clear-purpose-and-primary-action
passmediumThe first viewport states “Bring your ideas to life” and exposes “Start creating”; detail/listing pages have specific H1s.
support-core-task-success
primary-flow-completion
passmediumRepresentative navigation targets for templates, presentation creation, pricing and help all loaded successfully with clear continuation controls.
support-core-task-success
clear-system-state-and-recovery
passmediumThe sampled invalid sitemap endpoint rendered a branded roadblock state with a “Go to home” recovery link and error identifier.
be-fast-and-stable
good-core-web-vitals
issueshighLighthouse measured LCP 4.168 s, FCP 3.31 s and TTI 7.241 s; the first-party trace corroborated two long tasks and 92.97 ms total blocking time.
CANVA-006 high: Throttled load performance misses the good LCP range.
be-fast-and-stable
visual-stability
issueshighThe 360x800 layout observer measured CLS 0.2157, including a 0.21285 shift at about 6.18 seconds, above the 0.1 good threshold.
CANVA-005 high: The mobile templates listing has poor visual stability.
be-fast-and-stable
efficient-main-thread
passmediumFirst-party trace measured only two long tasks and 92.97 ms TBT; Lighthouse TBT was 93 ms, within the good range.
be-fast-and-stable
efficient-resource-delivery
passmediumAssets were compressed and mostly cacheable; trace LCP was 1.20 s in the unthrottled capture, though overall delivery issues are recorded under related checks.
be-fast-and-stable
trim-unused-and-duplicate-code
issueshighHAR recorded 60 requests and 3.27 MB transferred; Lighthouse estimated 277 KiB unused JavaScript and 62 KiB unused CSS, with four individual JS resources around 31–61% unused.
CANVA-007 high: The anonymous homepage ships a large amount of avoidable code and network weight.
be-inclusive
names-roles-labels
passmediumLighthouse accessibility scored 100; button-name and link-name audits passed, and the template search input has an accessible label.
be-inclusive
sufficient-contrast
passmediumLighthouse color-contrast passed and sampled screenshots remain legible.
be-inclusive
structure-and-focus
passmediumLighthouse heading-order passed; DOM contains header/nav/main/footer landmarks; focus probe found focus treatments.
be-inclusive
legible-text
passmediumDesktop/mobile screenshots show large readable headings, comfortable body line-height and no clipped main copy outside the separately reported consent overlap.
be-inclusive
zoom-reflow-targets-and-media
passmediumMeta viewport allows scaling, Lighthouse target-size and viewport audits passed, and mobile layouts had no horizontal overflow.
follow-best-practices
no-console-errors
passmediumLighthouse errors-in-console audit passed with no logged console errors.
follow-best-practices
sound-document-and-assets
passmediumDOM has HTML5 doctype and UTF-8; Lighthouse image aspect-ratio and responsive-size audits passed. Unsized delivery is separately reported.
follow-best-practices
browser-platform-hygiene
issueshighLighthouse found an unload listener in sentry_browser.js and four BFCache failure reasons, including the unload handler and no-store responses.
CANVA-009 medium: Deprecated unload handling prevents back/forward cache restoration.
be-discoverable
title-and-description
passmediumHome and templates expose descriptive rendered titles and meta descriptions; the template probe records “Free templates | Canva”.
be-discoverable
crawlable-and-mobile-friendly
issueshighDiscoverability measured only 4% raw/rendered word coverage on home, 2% on templates and 4% on the presentation page; each was classified as a JS shell and raw HTML lacked title and h1.
CANVA-011 high: Core public content is largely absent from raw server HTML.
be-discoverable
canonical-and-indexing-signals
passmediumRendered home has canonical URL and 107 hreflang entries; robots.txt allows core paths and declares two sitemap indexes; sampled pages returned HTTP 200.
be-discoverable
structured-and-shareable-metadata
passmediumHome includes JSON-LD plus eight Open Graph tags and a canonical URL matching visible Canva organization/product content.
be-private-and-secure
secure-transport-and-headers
passmediumPage uses HTTPS with HSTS preload, nosniff, frame protection, strict-origin referrer policy and CSP; no client secrets were found.
be-private-and-secure
data-minimisation-and-third-parties
passmediumConsent offers reject/manage choices before optional analytics; tracker probe found one known error-monitoring origin and no third-party cookies.
be-private-and-secure
in-context-permissions-and-modern-auth
passmediumNo browser permission prompt appeared on load; login is user-initiated and Google identity is available. No inappropriate prompt was observed.
be-private-and-secure
defensive-browser-policies
issueshighHeaders inspection found CSP unsafe-eval and no Permissions-Policy. Cookie inspection found g_state without Secure and four of five cookies flagged, including SameSite=None cookies.
CANVA-010 medium: Browser security policy and cookie posture have avoidable gaps.
be-resilient
progressive-enhancement
issueshighRaw HTML comparisons across three representative public templates retained only 2–4% of rendered words and omitted title/h1, despite the pages having substantial public content.
CANVA-012 high: Public content and primary discovery journeys do not progressively enhance without JavaScript.
be-resilient
resilient-runtime-behaviour
passmediumFive representative routes loaded without clipped navigation or blank runtime states; the help route retained usable high-contrast chrome.
be-resilient
offline-and-installable
not-applicablehighCanva’s core editor is intrinsically online and collaborative; offline/installability was not treated as required for these public marketing surfaces.
be-resilient
network-and-http-failure-states
passmediumThe sampled invalid URL returned a branded roadblock with explicit home recovery rather than a blank shell.
be-internationalised
lang-dir-and-logical-properties
passmediumHome reports lang=en-GB and dir=ltr, templates lang=en, 107 hreflang links, and rendered markup includes logical inline properties.
be-internationalised
locale-aware-data
not-applicablehighThe sampled public surfaces display no dates, currencies, durations or locale-sensitive numeric data requiring an Intl formatting judgment.
be-internationalised
time-zone-correctness
not-applicablehighThe sampled public surfaces contain no event scheduling or time-zone-sensitive values.
be-trustworthy
no-dark-patterns
passmediumConsent presents Accept, Reject and Manage as direct choices without confirmshaming; sampled pricing copy did not show disguised commitments.
be-trustworthy
humane-error-handling
passmediumNo required multi-field form was present on sampled public paths; template search is optional and does not produce premature validation.
be-trustworthy
trustworthy-input-assistance
passmediumThe only sampled input is a labelled search field; autocomplete=off is appropriate for dynamic template-query suggestions.
be-trustworthy
safe-commercial-and-account-flows
passmediumPricing and login entry points are clearly labelled; no forced continuity or hidden default was observed in the sampled anonymous states.
be-sustainable
optimised-assets
issueshighThe image probe found all 13 images without width/height, 11 without srcset, 8 below-fold images not lazy-loaded and 9 legacy-format assets; Lighthouse independently failed the unsized-images audit.
CANVA-008 medium: Homepage imagery is not delivered responsively or with stable intrinsic sizing.
be-sustainable
no-wasteful-work
passmediumTrace showed bounded TBT and trackers recorded only a small telemetry/error-monitoring request footprint before consent.
be-sustainable
third-party-and-media-budget
passmediumNo autoplay video/audio was present; transferred media was dominated by product imagery, though optimization issues are separately recorded.
be-agent-ready
structured-agent-capabilities
issuesmediumThe platform probe found no WebMCP/model-context registration on the public product surface; agents must infer actions from a large rendered UI.
CANVA-016 low: Canva’s agent-relevant productivity capabilities are not exposed as structured browser tools.
be-agent-ready
on-device-inference
not-applicablehighThe sampled public marketing and discovery surfaces expose no bounded inference task where built-in local inference is necessary to complete the user journey.
be-memory-efficient
no-leak-under-repeated-interaction
issuesmediumThe baseline heap summary was 67.15 MB across 1.52M nodes; after 20 menu toggles it was 88.60 MB across 2.06M nodes, about 32% more bytes and 36% more nodes. Separate page sessions add variance, so this is a leak signal requiring allocation-retainer confirmation.
CANVA-013 medium: Repeated navigation-menu toggling produced substantial retained-heap growth.
be-memory-efficient
bounded-footprint
issueshighA post-load heap summary contained about 1.52M heap nodes, 8.77M edges and 67.15 MB self size before entering the editor.
CANVA-014 medium: The initial memory footprint is disproportionate for a marketing landing page.
be-memory-efficient
no-detached-dom-or-unbounded-listeners
passmediumNeither heap summary listed Detached* constructors among the dominant retained constructors; the stronger growth signal is separately recorded.
