How it works

  1. Upload a photo

    Tap Upload photo and pick the picture.

  2. Type your text

    The editor opens on Layers with a text box on the photo. Type, then drag and resize it.

  3. Save

    Tap Save & get link, then Download.

Make it readable

Pick any color, make the text bold, put a background behind it so it stays readable on busy photos, and set its opacity.

More than text

Layers also adds arrows, lines, drawing, highlights, rectangles, ellipses, your logo and blurred areas. Each layer can be moved, hidden or deleted.

Undo anything

Every change can be undone and redone until you save. The original photo stays as it was.
