How to write on a screenshot
Start with the part of the screen you want to explain. Keep the original image simple, then give your new words a space of their own.
01 · CAPTURE
Take the screenshot first.
On Windows, press Win + Shift + S and drag around the area you need. Save the capture from the screenshot preview. On Mac, press Shift + Command + 4, then drag to capture an area.
This step uses your computer's screenshot tool. DevSnapKit styles the saved image afterward. The video shows capture instructions and the source area, followed by the real editor workflow.
Capture only the useful area. There is no headline yet, so the new words will be easy to spot. 02 · IMPORT
Bring your capture into the studio.
Open the text studio. Choose Replace Image below the canvas and select your saved screenshot. Your image is processed locally in your browser.
Your screenshot is in the canvas, ready for its own caption. 03 · WRITE
Add one clear thought.
Choose Add text and type your headline. Here we add “A brighter outlook.” Choose Elements → Text to finish typing and reveal the style controls.
Pick a typeface and size, then use the Move handle to place the words above the screenshot. Drag a side handle to change the box width. This example uses Gelasio at 42 px.
The headline is a separate editable object. The words inside the screenshot remain unchanged. 04 · EXPORT
Download the whole idea.
Open Export. Choose PNG, WebP, or JPEG, check the displayed pixel dimensions, then select Download. This is the actual downloaded PNG.
Your words stay editable in the open studio session. The exported image combines the screenshot and text into one file.
Output dimensions depend on your canvas and selected export scale.
Now try it with your screenshot.
Write on a screenshotSMALL DETAILS, CLEARER WORDS
Make the type
feel like yours.
A place for every word.
Choose left, centre, or right alignment. Adjust box width to control line breaks, then move it into place.
Find every text box.
Use the text picker to select a box, including when another object overlaps it.
Room to change your mind.
Adding, moving, restyling, and deleting text share the same undo history as your image edits.
What does your screenshot need to say?
Three ways to use a sentence of your own.
A TUTORIAL
Introduce the next step.
Add a short title to tell readers what they are about to learn.
A PRODUCT UPDATE
Show what changed.
Give the new feature a headline that explains its benefit. For link previews, compose an Open Graph image.
A QUICK EXPLANATION
Point out what matters.
Place a label beside the detail you want someone to notice.
Before you add the words.
Can I edit text after adding it?
Yes. Click your text on the canvas, or select its entry in Elements → Text and choose Edit on canvas. It stays editable in your open studio session, including after downloading an image.
Does the text become part of the image?
In the exported PNG, WebP, or JPEG, yes. The download contains the finished visual, without editable text layers.
Can I change words already in a screenshot?
No. DevSnapKit adds new text boxes. It does not recognise, erase, or replace words baked into the screenshot. Change the source app and take a new screenshot to correct those words.
Can I rotate a text box?
No. You can move a text box, change its width, and restyle it. Text rotation is not supported.
What if my text runs outside the canvas?
Export asks you to fix the overflowing box. Move it inward, shorten the words, reduce their size, or adjust the box width before downloading.
Is adding text to images free?
Yes. Text, logo uploads, and QR codes are included in Free. Pro adds premium templates, high-resolution export presets, batch export for multiple canvas sizes, and premium gradient backgrounds. Final pixel dimensions are shown before export.
