Questions
How do I make text readable on a busy photo?+
Turn on the shadow, add a dark outline, or put a semi-transparent box behind the text.
Which fonts can I use?+
Sans, serif, mono, an Impact style, handwritten and rounded. They use your device’s fonts, so they can look slightly different on another computer.
Can I add more than one text?+
Yes. Add the tool again for each text; every step has its own text and position.
Are my photos uploaded?+
No. The text is added in your browser, and the photo never leaves your device.
