How to Add Text to Image Files in Three Steps

Add your caption

Upload your photo

Open a JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB. You can add text to image files right in your browser, without creating an account.

Write and style your text

Type up to five lines, pick a font, size, fill and outline color, then drag the text or use arrow keys to position it.

Download PNG or JPG

Choose the format that fits where the image is going and download a copy at the original dimensions. Your source file stays untouched.

Put the words where the photo has room

Drag the text on the preview, nudge it with arrow keys, or enter exact horizontal and vertical percentages. Faces, products and logos stay clear when you add text to image areas with open sky, wall or table space.

Stay readable on busy backgrounds

Pair a fill color with an outline instead of covering the photo with a solid box. White lettering with a dark edge lets you add text to image backgrounds full of foliage, crowds or patterned fabric.

Export the format your channel expects

Choose PNG for graphics, logos and screenshots with crisp edges, or JPG for ordinary photo uploads and usually smaller files. Switch formats and download again without retyping or repositioning your text.

Why Add Text in Your Browser

A sale price, an event date, a name or a short credit line often belongs right on the picture. Add text to image files here without opening a design app or starting a project.

Your photo stays on your device

Uploading, previewing and exporting happen in this browser tab, so the image is not sent to an AI provider or saved to an account.

Free, with no sign-up

You can add text to image files without spending credits or creating an account. Open the page whenever a caption is due and download as many versions as you need.

Compare wording and positions

Change the wording, size or placement and the preview updates immediately, so you can test a headline above and below the subject before choosing.

The original stays untouched

Each download is a new copy. Keep your source photo for the next date, price or message instead of layering one caption over another.
