Images are going to figure in your Instagram Ads a lot so it is very important that they really look good. You don’t need to be a Photoshop expert to enhance images and there is no need to pay a designer to do this work for you as the tools we will discuss are really easy to use and very effective.
Quick
You need to add text to your images to help persuade users to take the action that you want. This is really easy to do if you use a great app called Quick. No need to try and work out how to add appealing text with Photoshop or another complex photo editor.
It is really easy to add text to your images with the Quick app. Not only that but it is simple to change where the text is placed, the font type, the size of the text and the color. You can use the free version of Quick and it will have most of the features that you need. Purchase more features within the app if you want more advanced features.
Instagram Layout
Instagram provides this free tool which allows you to create a collage with multiple images. If you have an Android or iOS device you can get the app free. This is good news as you will be able to showcase a number of products for example in a collage.
