## What is Backtext?

Put words behind anything. Backtext lifts the subject out of your photo, right on your iPhone, so your text can slip behind people, pets, mountains and skylines.

Pick a photo, type your words, and style them with 20+ fonts, gradients, outlines, glows, shadows and text boxes. Drag, pinch and rotate until it's perfect. Pinch the photo to zoom in for fine placement. Then save it to Photos or share it anywhere.

Backtext is free, with every style included. Free saves are up to 1080 px with a small "Made with Backtext" mark.

BACKTEXT PRO: one purchase, no subscription
• No watermark on your saves
• Full resolution, up to 4096 px
