PixelLab review

PixelLab is the free option for text-heavy graphics such as quote cards, thumbnails, posters and memes. The Google Play listing describes text and 3D text objects, dozens of text effects including shadow, inner shadow, stroke, reflection, emboss and mask, and fills from solid colors, linear and radial gradients or image textures. You get 100+ hand-picked fonts and can add your own. Stickers, emojis, shapes and freehand drawing sit on top of your photo, and the background can be a color, gradient or image. It removes plain green, blue or white backgrounds, warps perspective to place a logo on a box or sign, applies image effects, and exports at any format or resolution. Projects save for later editing. The app is free with ads and is part of Google Play Pass for an ad-free version. It has no business templates, so for flyers and presentations Canva's free tier does more.
