TYPOGRAPHY & EDITING

• Font color eyedropper — pick colors from your photo
• Bundled open-source Chinese fonts (Source Han Serif/Sans, LXGW WenKai, etc.) for offline use

COLORS & LAYOUT
• Extract theme colors from your photo; set background and text colors separately
• Five aspect ratios (1:1, 3:4, 9:16, and more)
• Bottom toolbar: swap image/text order, adjust image & text proportions, alignment, and custom colors
• Live Photo card export when supported by your device and media

SAVE & SHARE
• Top-left: import a photo or Live Photo

• Static exports can preserve photo EXIF metadata

WHO IT’S FOR
• Photographers who want location, time, or camera details on their posts
