Phonto is a simple app that allows you to add text to pictures. The text is customizable which gives the user a more personalized experience. There are more than 400 fonts are available with the option to change size, color, and everything in between. Lamont Wallace ‘17, exclaims, “Phonto is a great app for adding text to images, creating captions, or for adding photo credits. It’s super easy to use!” Phonto is an app that is both free and versatile, this app is extremely user-friendly & it is taking the nation by storm. Close competitors of this app are Word Swag and Typic. “What even is Word Swag,” complains Kayla Bilal ‘20. Though these apps essentially supply the same editing tools as Phonto, they aren’t raved about as much because of their costs and inconvenience for all types of phones/devices. Phonto is available on all Apple and Android devices which makes it inclusive and convenient. Android user, Terrie Briggs ‘18, says, “This is my go-to app for creating quick flyers. It barely even takes up that much space.” If you are someone with a vision and don’t want to bother with difficult-to-use editing software then this app is perfect for you. It provides the finishing touches of photoshop without the complexity of it.
