Make your own buttons and badges — easily. Button Badge Maker is a layout tool for badges, buttons and DIY merch. Pick your photos and they are instantly cropped into the shape you choose, arranged in one step, and turned into a print-ready A4 template. No design software, no manual repositioning — just faster, simpler badge making. Key features: • One-tap layout: many photos are auto-cropped to the chosen shape and grid-centered on an A4 page — up to 50 per page, with a clear hint if some don't fit • 21 badge shapes: circle, square, triangle, star, pentagon, hexagon, octagon, diamond, heart, oval, shield, water drop, candy, cloud, bookmark, bell, tag and more • Real-world sizing: enter the finished size (e.g. 58 mm diameter) and spacing in millimetres — the whole page recalculates and stays centered • Rounded corners & cut lines: adjustable corner radius on polygonal shapes, with dashed cut lines to guide trimming • Fine-tune each photo: drag it inside its shape individually, duplicate favorites, or delete the ones you don't need • 28 photo looks: Hasselblad Blue, Leica Vibrant, Japanese Style, Black & White, Sepia, film tones, Hong Kong Neon, Teal & Orange and more — applied to the whole set or restyled one photo at a time • Text & symbols: add text along a circle's outline or a shape's bottom edge, with full control over color, letter spacing, bold and shadow; insert single-color symbols and the full set of colorful emoji with one tap • Pick any font: bundled fonts (MiSans by default) plus import from TTF / OTF / TTC files • Print & export: AirPrint the A4 sheet directly, or export high-resolution images to save and share • 7 interface languages: English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, Deutsch, Français, 日本語, 한국어 Everything is processed on your device — no account needed. The free version allows one export per day; upgrade to Pro for unlimited printing and exporting. From badges and round buttons to stickers, cards and hand-made merch: select, arrange and print — your own set, ready in minutes.
