PhotoText: Text on Photos

Leave one line on one photo.

Pick a photo you took today and lay your words over it. Choose a typeface, a color, an outline, a shadow, and watch the result on screen as you go. The preview and the saved image are drawn by the same code, so there are no surprises after you tap save.

■ A finished look in one tap
50 style presets. 12 are open from the start and the rest open with a short ad. Tap a chip and the typeface, color, outline, shadow and letter spacing all change together. Your text stays where you put it and keeps the size you gave it, so a layout you worked on is never thrown away.

■ 29 typefaces
9 ship with the app and are ready straight away. The other 20 download when you want them. A typeface that cannot draw the characters you just typed is greyed out before you pick it, so you never end up staring at empty boxes.

■ Tools for the words
Outline, shadow, text box, curved text, gradient, and a mask that fills the letters with the photo itself. Letter spacing, line height, size and rotation are all under your fingers. Undo and redo are there, so try things.

■ When nothing comes to mind
Everyday, travel, love, comfort, humour, seasons, quotes. Tap a phrase to borrow it and edit it into your own.

■ No watermark
Saving for free does not stamp anything on your photo. A clean result is not something you have to pay for.

■ No photo permission
Only the photos you pick through the Android photo picker come into the app. It never asks for access to your whole gallery.

■ A daily nudge
Once a day, at a time you choose, a reminder to leave a line on today's photo. Change the time in settings or turn it off whenever you like.

■ Light and dark
Follow the system theme or pick one yourself.

■ Unlock with a short ad
There is no in-app purchase. Watch a short ad and it opens right there.
