How to put text behind a photo

Drop a photo with a clear subject: you, a friend, a pet, a product
The AI cuts out the subject on your device (the first time it downloads once, about 14 MB)
Type your words, pick a font and a quick style, and drag the words to the right spot
Set size, colour, opacity, spacing, rotation, outline or glow
Download the JPG or PNG, or save it to Photos

One big word: your name, a city, a mood ("GOLDEN", "PARIS", "SUNDAY") behind your head reads best.
Two lines: press Enter: a small word above and a big one below, like a magazine cover.
Keep the face clear: the words sit behind the subject automatically, so put them where the background is calm.
Make it a Reel cover: use the 9:16 result in the Reel cover maker.
