FAQs


Question 1: How to download Cricut Design Space on PC offline?

Answer: In order to download and install the app on your PC, you will need an internet connection. However, after installation, you can choose to use the application online or offline.

Answer: Yes, you can! The software is cloud-based, allowing you to create your design here and there and wherever you want. All you will need is an account to sign in to any computer you want to design from. Ensure you have your username and password to make it happen.
