apps<\/h5><p class=\"css-djh8eo e1lejebg6\">Our best apps roundups are written by humans who&#8217;ve spent much of their careers using, testing, and writing about software. Unless explicitly stated, we spend dozens of hours researching and testing apps, using each app as it&#8217;s intended to be used and evaluating it against the criteria we set for the category. We&#8217;re never paid for placement in our articles from any app or for links to any site\u2014we value the trust readers put in us to offer authentic evaluations of the categories and apps we review. For more details on our process, read the full rundown of\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/selecting-apps\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">how we select apps to feature on the Zapier blog<\/a>.<\/p><p class=\"css-djh8eo e1lejebg6\">\u00a0<\/p><\/div><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/creating-content-for-social-media\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">Social media posts<\/u><\/a>\u00a0have a very short lifecycle, so you shouldn&#8217;t spend hours creating them. It&#8217;s more important that you get your content out into the world where people can actually see it than you pore over every pixel to get things perfect. This is why a good graphic design app is so crucial: instead of starting from scratch each time, you have a range of great templates and design resources (like stock images, icons, shapes, and text styles) ready to go. Then, all you have to do is mix and match things with your own brand elements to have something unique and powerful. Being able to\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/how-to-repurpose-content-for-social-media\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">repurpose the posts<\/u><\/a>\u00a0you&#8217;ve already made is a huge time-saver.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">And you don&#8217;t need to pay huge prices to get incredible results. What makes graphic design apps free\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/free-small-business-software\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">isn&#8217;t necessarily a lack of quality<\/u><\/a>, but a lack of some powerful design features and nice-to-have extras, like AI-powered features. I&#8217;ve considered close to 40 free graphic design apps and found five great, free resources. Granted, some of these are more limited free plans of premium products, but they&#8217;re all up to the job of creating awesome images for your social media marketing channels. I&#8217;ll also flag what you get if you&#8217;re prepared to pay a few dollars a month\u2014some of these options have great value paid plans.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">I&#8217;ve relied on Adobe Photoshop for over a decade, and it sets a high bar for paid products. I didn&#8217;t expect these free social media post makers to eclipse it, but they had to offer a great service. Even if something is free, I won&#8217;t recommend it if it&#8217;s awful.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">To test each app, I spent a significant amount of time browsing hundreds of themes to get a feel for the quality of each one. I also created at least two test posts using the templates (with most of the favorites, even more). I generally focused on the overall ease of use and professional offerings of each app, but I also had some key criteria that each app needed to meet to be included on this list:<\/p><ul class=\"css-1r9xe42 e1lejebg9\"><li class=\"css-oiqntf e1lejebg7\"><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Is this app easy enough for anyone to use?<\/strong>\u00a0Tools like Photoshop and Illustrator (which I love) are incredible in the right hands, and unusable in the wrong ones.\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/best-social-media-management-tools\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">Social media management<\/u><\/a>\u00a0is rarely done by people with a design background, so any app has to cater to regular people. If you have the chops to use Photoshop and pay for it, you&#8217;ll probably get the best results, but it isn&#8217;t the right option for the majority of people looking for a free tool. This isn&#8217;t to say there won&#8217;t be some learning curve, just that it doesn&#8217;t require a textbook to climb.\u00a0<\/p><\/li><li class=\"css-oiqntf e1lejebg7\"><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Is this app suited well for social media marketing?<\/strong>\u00a0Again, Photoshop and Illustrator can do incredible things, but they&#8217;re complete overkill for most people trying to create images for their social media marketing channels. I wanted apps that streamlined the process of creating strong graphics, not offering every tool under the sun.\u00a0<\/p><\/li><li class=\"css-oiqntf e1lejebg7\"><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Is the app experience good?<\/strong>\u00a0A free graphic design app has the potential to be, frankly, awful to use (looking at you,\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gimp.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">GIMP<\/u><\/a>). But even if you&#8217;re not (yet) paying for a service, you shouldn&#8217;t be hamstrung by a slow, janky, and just unpleasant experience. Especially when there are great apps out there you could be using.\u00a0<\/p><\/li><li class=\"css-oiqntf e1lejebg7\"><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Are the design assets varied and professional?<\/strong>\u00a0It&#8217;s easy to find\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/how-to-design-a-template\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">social media templates<\/a>\u00a0online, but many of them are awful. You can&#8217;t slap some cheesy clipart on a graphic that represents your brand, or keep recycling the same social media post design over and over. I only included apps that had assets that would allow you to represent yourself or your company in a professional light. (To be honest, this criterion cut the most apps.)<\/p><\/li><li class=\"css-oiqntf e1lejebg7\"><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Can you use the app in multiple ways?<\/strong>\u00a0If you create one post for Twitter, it should be easy to\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/repurpose-content-for-social-with-ai\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">repurpose<\/u><\/a>\u00a0it for Instagram, or even for a flyer. Similarly, you should be able to quickly edit and update last year&#8217;s Christmas sale post with this year&#8217;s info. Apps that made this list had to be multi-purpose, rather than force you into one way of working.\u00a0<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">One other thing: while AI tools like DALL\u00b7E 2 and Stable Diffusion are incredibly popular right now and can generate impressive images from a simple text prompt, they aren&#8217;t yet able to create the kind of complex graphics that are part of most brands&#8217; social media strategies.

If you&#8217;ve accidentally included any premium assets, you&#8217;ll have the option to pay to remove their watermarks (normally at about $1 per asset). It&#8217;s handy if you only occasionally use Canva, but if this happens a lot, you should subscribe to Canva Pro for $12.99\/month (or at least check out the 30-day free trial). Pro has heaps of extra designs, and some nice features, like automatic resizing, a social media scheduler, and the ability to upload your &#8220;<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/create-brand-visuals-in-canva\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">brand kit<\/a>,&#8221; so you can easily add your logo, brand colors, and font to your designs.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">Canva has recently started adding lots of\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/canva-ai\/\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">AI-powered features<\/u><\/a>.

And it&#8217;s free to get started.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">Template-wise, Express still falls behind Canva. It has less to choose from, and the search isn&#8217;t as good. Don&#8217;t get me wrong: there are still thousands of awesome free templates, but you&#8217;re less likely to find that perfect template and more likely to have to spend a few minutes tweaking one that&#8217;s close, but not quite there.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">For all that, Express is a better editor in many respects. It has\u00a0<i class=\"css-0 e1lejebg13\">Quick Actions<\/i>\u00a0on the home screen that can do things like resize images, convert videos to GIFs, and remove backgrounds. They&#8217;re powered by Adobe&#8217;s Photoshop and Premiere apps operating in the cloud, apparently. It&#8217;s a really intuitive way to have access to what can be quite advanced tools in other apps.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">In the editor, Express has some pretty powerful features, but it keeps them out of the way. Almost anyone should be able to create a great-looking social media graphic with it, but if you want to drill in deeper and customize things more, there are advanced layer options, blend modes, color toning, and other features pulled from Adobe&#8217;s better-known apps. You can generally access them by selecting any design element and checking out the right sidebar. It really hits that nice middle-ground: quick and easy to use for 90% of jobs, but with the more powerful features available for when you want them.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">Express is an excellent standalone app for designing social media graphics, but it&#8217;s hard to overlook its integration with the rest of Adobe&#8217;s Creative Suite. If you plan to scale your business to the point where you need to use (and pay for) Adobe&#8217;s more powerful tools, Express is the way to go. You can create libraries (in the\u00a0<i class=\"css-0 e1lejebg13\">Libraries<\/i>\u00a0tab of the sidebar) that are available across all your Adobe apps and pull in photos from Lightroom or brand elements from Illustrator. Adobe Stock images and graphics are also available throughout the app.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">Adobe is also going all-in on AI and has teased a\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/adobe-firefly\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><u class=\"css-0 e1lejebg14\">powerful generative AI called Firefly<\/u><\/a>. The features aren&#8217;t available in Express yet, but expect them to get added over the coming months. They are likely to be limited to the paid plan, though.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Adobe Express price:<\/strong>\u00a0Free for basic features and 2GB of cloud storage; from $9.99\/mo for\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.adobe.com\/express\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">premium features<\/a>, such as logo upload and placement, branded templates and tools, additional Adobe apps, and 100GB of cloud storage.<\/p><div id=\"pablo\">\u00a0<\/div><h4>Best free social media design app for quickly making images to share on social media<\/h4><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><i class=\"css-0 e1lejebg13\"><\/i><a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/pablo.buffer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\"><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Pablo by Buffer<\/strong><\/a><strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">\u00a0<\/strong>(Web)<\/p><div class=\"css-lgj0h8 eurb20r0\"><div class=\"css-xi606m eurb20r3\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/images.ctfassets.net\/lzny33ho1g45\/7luGXPDUqLAgpwXXosISGM\/e2c52174800b44fc24516f99d75a1c4e\/pablo.png?w=1400\" type=\"image\/avif\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/images.ctfassets.net\/lzny33ho1g45\/7luGXPDUqLAgpwXXosISGM\/e2c52174800b44fc24516f99d75a1c4e\/pablo.png?w=1400\" type=\"image\/webp\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"eurb20r1 e7ascrl0 css-134qt3o e5cerj40\" src=\"https:\/\/images.ctfassets.net\/lzny33ho1g45\/7luGXPDUqLAgpwXXosISGM\/e2c52174800b44fc24516f99d75a1c4e\/pablo.png?w=1400\" alt=\"A screenshot of Pablo by Buffer, our pick for the best free social media design tool for quickly making images to share on social media\" \/><\/picture><\/div><\/div><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\"><a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/pablo.buffer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">Pablo<\/a>\u00a0is a minimalist tool for placing text over the top of images, from the team behind the social media scheduling app\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/blog\/buffer-social-media\" target=\"_self\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">Buffer<\/a>. It couldn&#8217;t be simpler to use or in its design.

In the center of the screen, there&#8217;s a preview of your image. On the left, you can search for an image through Unsplash or click\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Upload Image<\/strong>\u00a0to add your own. At the top of the screen, click\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Templates<\/strong>\u00a0to choose from one of the six defaults. On the right, you can choose the size and shape of the canvas, add a filter, position the text, and insert your logo or another graphic. Click on the text to change its formatting, double-click on it to edit it directly. Oh, and click\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Reposition<\/strong>\u00a0to change the position and crop of the background image. That&#8217;s literally it.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">Once you&#8217;re happy with your post pic (and it won&#8217;t take long for you to be), click\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Share &amp; Download<\/strong>\u00a0to save your image or post it directly to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, or Instagram (or queue it up with Buffer). If you do queue it up with Buffer, you can also\u00a0<a class=\"css-1l9i3yq-Link\" href=\"https:\/\/zapier.com\/apps\/buffer\/integrations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-color=\"primary\" data-weight=\"inherit\">connect it to any of the other apps you use with Zapier<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">For all the lack of options, Pablo is still on this list.

The catch is that, instead of having to carefully check what template you&#8217;re using, you can only download three designs a month.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">If you only occasionally need to create images for your social media channels\u2014or just want to create a one-off banner for your Twitter account or Facebook page\u2014it&#8217;s really nice to not constantly be running into upgrade notifications or selecting themes only to be told they&#8217;re only available on the Pro plan. As good as Canva and Adobe Express are, the free plans do make you very aware that there&#8217;s a paid plan they&#8217;d love you to be on. Snappa is a lot less pushy\u2014but no less useful.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">The other mild difference with Snappa is that its templates\u2014while excellent\u2014aren&#8217;t as thoroughly themed as some of the other options, nor is there an easy way to search through them. You need to look at the defaults as a base you can customize and build from, rather than something ready-built where you&#8217;re simply adding a photo and changing the words.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">If you want to make a birthday post, for example, you should look at the templates and pick one that has a layout you like, and then make it yours by adding your own images\u2014or finding one of the included royalty-free stock images that works for you. You can customize it further by clicking on\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Effects<\/strong>\u00a0and adding a color overlay, blur, or other adjustment\u2014most of which serve to make any text on top of the image more legible.<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">Of course, you then need to add balloons. Because every birthday post has balloons. To do that, click the\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Graphics<\/strong>\u00a0tool and then\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Icons<\/strong>. Use the search to find a balloon you like, and click to add it. To make sure everything lines up nicely, you can click the\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Toggle Grid<\/strong>\u00a0option in the top toolbar and use it to position things perfectly.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"css-1kvqkq0 e1lejebg5\">When you&#8217;re happy with how things look, click\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Download<\/strong>\u00a0to save your image or\u00a0<strong class=\"css-0 e1lejebg11\">Share<\/strong>\u00a0to push it directly to your social media accounts\u2014so long as you haven&#8217;t maxed out your free posts.
