You can add images to a design from your PC or upload it from an online source (social media). There are some cool photo effects available in this software to beautify the image(s) in your design.

Other editing spices packed into this app includes clip art images, text fonts, preset text styles, background patterns, lines, shapes, and social media icons.

In addition to the tools mentioned above, there is the option to crop, resize, move, rotate, flip and carry out some other simple graphic design functions that are regular with top graphic design tools.

Personally, I was satisfied with the various custom font styles, size, color, and effects that can be used to beautify simple designs.

When you’re done with a design, you can choose between saving the design as a PNG or JPG image. You can also choose to share your designs online via social media and/or other platforms.

If you feel exhausted while still on a project, click on the dotted dash (as shown in the image below) and then click on Save Project and take your break. Whenever you feel like picking up the project again; Re-Launch the software and click on “Load Project” to continue with it.

My FotoJet Designer Software Review and Experiences

I was able to do some simple designs with FotoJet Designer Software a few minutes from installation. It is fast and easy to use. It took me less than 2 minutes to create some simple graphic designs with the aid of the default templates distributed with it.

Coming from someone that has used a simple photo design tool like photoshine, I was somewhat impressed with the location of the design toolbar. With this toolbar, one can easily undo, redo, zoom, and perform simple quick tasks. The size and dimensions of my design were shown on this bar for easy editing.

I tried creating a more premium design with this app but found out that FotoJet Designer doesn’t come with full photo editing options and as such will need one to use one of its online tools from time to time.

One of such tools is the FotoJet Collage Maker and the photo editor function. I’d have preferred a complete offline tool without the need of going online to make photo collages.

To me, it would have been a monster app, if the three functions (FotoJet Designer, FotoJet Photo Editor, and FotoJet Collage Maker) were merged into one.

Finally, FotoJet Designer makes graphic design seems simple, easy, and effortless. Even an average person with little or no knowledge of graphic design can create unique designs (to an extent) with this software.
