Step 5: Save and Share Your Photo

Once you've added and adjusted the text on your photo, all that's left to do is save the edited photo. Normally, you can do this by selecting the "Save" or "Export" option. Then you can share your edited photo on social media, send it via email or message, or simply save it to your photo gallery for future use.
