Microsoft Designer

Microsoft Designer is a free-to-use graphic design tool embedded with AI capabilities, allowing users to create or edit images using AI or manually craft their own ideas into images as well. It is equally reliable for professional graphic design or simply retouching your personal photos.

The tool works similarly to other photo editing apps, sharing the same workspace, and offers a wide range of pre-made templates, idea prompts, download options, and post options. It is compatible with multiple devices, including Android, Windows PCs, and so on.

What is Microsoft Designer?

Microsoft Designer, developed by Microsoft Corporation, is basically designed for Android devices. The innovative software empowers users with AI capabilities that unleash their creativity to craft eye-catching photos like a pro. It offers free of cost services for both Android and Windows operating systems.

The app not only helps to create or edit photos, but also integrates with cloud storage to enable users to store their content, download it, and share it with others right from the app. It uses DALL-E 2 by OpenAI technology to make your creation and editing process attractive, powerful, and innovative.

Microsoft Designer Features

Simple to Use

The app is simple to use, as you can access it while using your Microsoft account, and start your editing or creating process. The app, unlike other photo editing apps, offers a text field on the left side of the screen, and you need to type your requirements for creating an image. It will, within a few seconds, generate various designs for your ease in selecting which better suits your requirements. 

You can import your own images to ask the tool to recreate them using AI. You can select templates or get more fresh ideas by clicking the “Generate” option. In addition, select a size for your images from the top of the screen, and get images within the same size.

On the right panel, a column is available within multiple ideas that helps us select any one to continue. You can access to editing process by clicking on the “X” button and hiding the panel. Now, you can use different editing tools one-by-one, select them using your cursor, and drag them to adjust the place you want. While modifying the element, you will also receive some guidelines.
