I think keeping it under 20% text is a good guideline! You want the image to speak too.
Remember to test your posts on different screens! What looks great on one device might not translate well on another.

So true! I learned the hard way when my beautiful text got cut off on my friend’s phone!
It’s so much easier to make eye-catching graphics these days! Just don’t rely too heavily on text; sometimes, less is more.
I’ve been looking for a way to highlight text on pictures for my study materials! This tutorial sounds perfect. Any app recommendations?
You should check out ‘Adobe Spark’ and ‘PicsArt’! They have great tools for highlighting text and are pretty user-friendly.

I’ve used both apps. Adobe Spark has a lot of creative features, while PicsArt is excellent for image editing overall.

What about for Android users? Are the same apps available or are there better alternatives?
Yes, they’re both available on Android! Plus, I found ‘Highlight’ app which is surprisingly intuitive for quick highlights!
I love experimenting with different colors for highlights! It really makes the text pop, especially in presentations.
Totally agree! Colors can convey different emotions too, which can make a huge impact on your message. 
Has anyone tried using these apps for social media? I think highlighting key points could really engage my followers.

Yes! I’ve used them for Instagram stories and they seem to get way more attention than regular posts.
While it’s great for boosting engagement, does it really stand out enough compared to just posting the picture without highlights?
I mean, it might not be for everyone, but it adds a personal touch! Plus, it’s fun to get creative with it.
