FAQs

Can I Download Cricut Design Space on My Android Phone?

Yes, you can! The Cricut Design Space app is available for Android phone users, as it is for iOS, Windows, and Mac users as well. Your phone just has to have certain features like all the other devices to run the app smoothly. Otherwise, it will be difficult to run the Design Space app on your mobile device.

Does Cricut Design Space Support Multiple Projects at Once?

Yes, it does! When you are using a desktop or laptop for the Design Space app, you can open multiple windows and work on various projects at the same time. In the different windows you can pick different designs. However, while cutting, the Cricut machine can connect to just one window. So, if you want to work on multiple projects at once, you can pick a design and save it for cutting later.

Yes, you can! If you have purchased any project and have saved it on your device, you will be able to edit and cut it offline as well. You can even work on new projects, including fonts, patterns, and images, but you have saved them already on your computer. If you are working on a project and suddenly lose your internet connection, you can continue working on it. When the internet connection resumes, it will automatically sync with the internet.
