Everything you need in a free add text on image tool

Live text preview

Type captions, labels, or stamps and see them update on your photo instantly — then download a PNG when it looks right.

175+ fonts

Search a huge library of system and Google fonts — sans, serif, mono, display, and handwriting styles for any look.

Full color control

Pick from a complete palette or choose any custom color with the color wheel and hex input.

Readable on any photo

Turn on a soft outline so light text stays clear over busy backgrounds, product shots, and social graphics.

100% browser-based

Everything runs locally on your device. Your images never upload to Focera servers — private by design.

How It Works

Adding text to a photo should be fast and private. Focera keeps the whole flow on one page — upload, type your message, tune placement, and download without an account or desktop installer.

  1. Upload your image. Drag and drop a JPG, PNG, or WebP file up to 10 MB, or click the zone to browse from your device.
  2. Enter text and options. Type your message, then drag, resize, and rotate it on the preview. Search 175+ fonts, pick any color from the palette, and tune opacity and outline.
  3. Download the PNG. Preview updates live. When you are happy, export a full-resolution PNG with the text baked in.

Jump back to the add text on image tool anytime to process another file.

Popular Use Cases

  • Social captions — Add titles, quotes, or callouts before posting to Instagram, LinkedIn, or Stories.
  • Product labels — Stamp prices, SKUs, or “NEW” on catalog photos without opening a design app.
  • Watermark-style marks — Place a light name or URL with lower opacity and optional diagonal rotation.
  • Memes and announcements — Overlay short headlines on photos for events, sales, or team updates.
