A little help along the way

Follow these steps. Every option is explained underneath. Everything happens in your browser; the photo is never uploaded.

  1. Say what you want to do, and add a photoChoose an answer to What do you want to do? (Make it look better is the usual), then drop a photo, choose one or paste one. The editor opens full screen on that tool; the others are in the bar of tools, beside the photo on a computer and along the bottom on a phone.
  2. Make it look betterPress Auto, or tap a look: each is shown as a small picture of your photo. Then set Light, Colour and Detail in words, such as Darker, As taken or Brighter. Exact values and the look's strength are under Fine-tune.
  3. Crop, turn, flip or straightenTurn Shape on and choose Original, Square, 4:5, 16:9 or 9:16, or drag the crop's corners freely. Turn left or right, flip either way, and drag the dial to level a horizon.
  4. Add wordsPress Add words, type them, and drag them into place. Choose a font, a colour, a size and a box behind them.
  5. Hide a partDrag over what should not be seen, and choose Blur, Pixels or Box, as a rectangle or an oval. Box is the safe choice for anything private.
  6. Draw on itChoose a pen or a highlighter, a colour and a thickness, and draw on the photo.
  7. Compare, undo and downloadHold the photo while Looks is open, or hold Compare, to see it as it came. Undo and Redo go through every change. Download writes the same kind of file at the same size.

Questions people ask

Can I make a meme from my own photo?
Yes. Drop your photo and it opens with TOP TEXT and BOTTOM TEXT in Anton, white with a black outline; tap each to write your own words and download.
Is there a watermark?
No. The meme is written on your device in the photo's own format and size, with nothing added but your words, and nothing is uploaded.
Can I change the font or take the outline off?
Yes. Choose any of the ten bundled fonts and colours, and turn the outline round each letter off or on for any words.
