About this tool

Ways to use it

Add quotes to status updates and Stories, prices and calls to action to product photos, names and dates to invitations, captions to event photos, announcements to images for WhatsApp groups, or titles to video thumbnails. For the classic text-at-the-top-and-bottom layout, try the meme generator, already set up in the right style.

Text styles that work

  • White text with a black outline: readable on almost any photo.
  • Serif font with a dark background bar: an elegant look for invitations and quotes.
  • Bold yellow text with a thick outline: grabs attention in thumbnails and ads.
  • Left-aligned text in the lower third of a photo gives it a news-caption look.

The finished image keeps the original resolution and file format. PNG images retain transparency.

Frequently asked questions

How can I make text readable on any photo?

Use a dark outline on light letters (or the other way around), or turn on the background bar to add a semitransparent strip behind the text. On very colorful photos, the bar usually works better than an outline.

Can I use fonts from my computer?

The options use fonts that are already installed on most computers and phones, so the result matches the preview. If a font isn’t available on your device, your browser will use the closest available match.

Can I move the text with my keyboard?

Yes. Click the preview and use the arrow keys to move the text 1% at a time (5% with Shift).

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser: your file is read and processed on your device, and not a single byte is sent over the internet. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads.

Is it really free? Is there a daily limit?

It's free with no daily limits. Processing happens on your device, so there's no per-use cost and no need to limit you.

Does it work on phones?

Yes. The site works in any modern browser on Android, iPhone, Windows, Mac, and Linux—no installation needed.
