After the app is installed, you can download fonts in the OTR format from your computer to your phone, and then use them in Instagram. Instagram also lets you align the font, right or left.

To try it, take or download the photo, select the pan tool and its color, tap anywhere on the screen and hold until the screen turns to the color you need. If you choose the marker tool, the background will be semi-transparent, and you can use the eraser tool to create all kinds of drawings. One more feature is taking hashtags away. Hashtags you add to your stories can increase public coverage, but they may also spoil the general picture. There are two ways to hide them. Make them as small as possible and then just cover them with the GIF image. Or use the color picker to select the color of your background and then paint the hashtags with the same color so they become invisible. Another interesting option is shadow effect for text.
