App Suggestion Request: Image Editor for adding text (self.android)

submitted 4 days ago by gofsckyourself to c/android

I'm looking for an app, that does not have ads or in-app purchase kind of stuff, that has a robust feature to add text over an image. I want to be able to customize the text's font face, size, style (bold, italic, underline, etc), color, outline, and background.

Even better would be if it allows me to start by pasting an image from clipboard, and more so if I can copy the image back to clipboard after edits.

Ideally, something that is FOSS, but I wouldn't mind paying for an app if it's good and doesn't have a bunch of needless tracking.

Thanks y'all!

Same. This is the best photo editor I've used on Android. The UI takes some getting used to, but it can do everything OP said, even the clipboard stuff. (Mostly. See below.)

It has curves, cloning, painting, cropping, rotating, resizing, add text, add image, add arbitrary shapes, and more and more. It can even make animated GIFs or extract frames from GIFs.

It's like Photoshop but not from Adobe. I paid for the pro version forever ago and have been using it for years.

Clipboard stuff: It can't open the clipboard as a file that I can tell, but you can paste the clipboard into an image using the "text/image" function. You can even have it resize the pasted image to fit the current document size. So you make a new document that's the size you want, use Text/Image to paste it in with that setting emabled.

And then you can export the current image to the clipboard using the normal save feature. Or save it to an actual file.
