How To Schedule Canva Designs For Instagram Stories From Your Desktop PC

Designing Instagram Stories often means jumping between tools: creating visuals, exporting files, sending them to your phone, and finally publishing them manually. For teams, agencies, and busy professionals, this is not only time-consuming but also prone to mistakes and mental overload.

Storrito makes it easy to directly integrated Canva into your content publishing workflow. This means you can connect your Canva account, import existing designs, create new ones, and finish your Stories in a single place, without disrupting your process.

In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how the Canva integration in Storrito works, who it’s for, and why it can simplify your Instagram Story production.

Why Canva?

Canva has become one of the most widely used design tools for social media, especially for Instagram Stories. Its templates, brand kits, and collaborative features make it ideal for teams and agencies.

However, Canva alone doesn’t solve one key challenge: reliable Story scheduling. Instagram Stories are still primarily app-first, and many scheduling tools either don’t support Stories fully or require manual posting steps.

Storrito bridges that gap. By integrating Canva directly into the Storrito editor, Storrito connects design and scheduling into a single, uninterrupted workflow.

How The Canva Integration Works

Connecting Canva to your Storrito editor is straightforward:

1. Open the Storrito editor and start a new empty Story
2. Click the Canva button and connect your Canva account
3. Browse your existing Canva designs directly inside Storrito
4. Import a design into the editor with one click
5. After importing, your design behaves like any other Story asset in Storrito, so you can continue editing and enhancing it using Storrito’s native features.

Finish Your Stories Inside Storrito

Once your designs have been imported to the Storrito editor, you can:

• Add Instagram stickers such as polls, quizzes, or the link sticker
• Insert text, emojis, and GIFs
• Prepare Stories exactly as they should appear on Instagram

When you’re done designing, your Story is saved to your Storrito gallery, ready to be scheduled or reused later.

Create New Canva Designs Without Leaving Storrito

Storrito also lets you start new Canva designs directly from within the platform.

By clicking "Design with Canva" inside the Storrito editor, you can create a fresh design using your templates and brand assets. Once you’re finished, simply return to Storrito, refresh the page, and your new design appears automatically in the Canva tab where it's ready to be imported and edited further.

This is especially useful for teams that manage multiple accounts and campaigns at once and don't want the hassle of switching tools.

Who Will Love The Canva Integration?

The Canva integration is fantastic for anyone designing and posting Instagram Stories, but it's particularly useful for:

• Agencies managing multiple client accounts
• Brands with established Canva brand kits
• Social media managers working across devices
• Remote teams collaborating on Story content
• Anyone who wants to reduce manual Story publishing steps

By combining Canva’s design strengths with Storrito’s Story scheduling and sticker support, teams can move faster while maintaining consistency.

A More Streamlined Story Workflow

Instead of juggling tools, exporting files, or relying on mobile reminders, Storrito brings design and scheduling together in a single workflow.

If you’re already designing in Canva and scheduling Instagram Stories, Storrito offers a smoother way to connect the two.
