Add Text to Image Online

Need to add text to image for a YouTube thumbnail, Instagram story, meme, or product label? This free add text to image tool runs entirely in your browser — no Photoshop, and no server upload. Type your caption, choose fonts and colors, add stroke or shadow for readability, and position the overlay anywhere on the photo. When you add text to image here, everything stays on your device: your files are never sent to our servers, so you get faster results and stronger privacy for personal, client, or confidential photos.

• JPEG / JPG — widely supported; best for photos and social posts after you add text to image.
• PNG — lossless; best for thumbnails, graphics, and crisp text edges.
• WebP — modern format; great balance of quality and file size for web publishing.
• HEIC & GIF — supported when your browser can decode them, including photos from iPhone.
