Alma vs Canva for App Marketing

September 30, 2026 · 6 min read

Use Alma if the problem is getting posts out for the app. Use Canva when you are designing a screenshot or a one-off graphic. If you can only set up one this week, set up Alma.

Alma

Alma writes and designs TikTok slideshows and Instagram carousels from your App Store or website link, then schedules them to Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Threads or LinkedIn. You can keep its words or paste your own. The point is a calendar that does not depend on you opening a blank canvas.

Pricing: $29/month for 500 slides, or $199/month with no cap.

Canva

Canva is a design tool with a huge template library. It is the right place for App Store screenshots, a simple brand image, and a graphic you will reuse for months. It does not know your app, and a daily carousel made by hand tends to stop.

Recommendation

Start with Alma for marketing the app every day. Add Canva for the store frames and anything you design once. Using only Canva for daily content is why the account goes quiet.
