Adding text

Does anyone know how I can add text to an image stored on Google photos?
I have some images of the grommet positions and it would be better to add text directly to the image rather than describe each one individually then refer readers to the link.

You have to export it to a photo editing program, and then re-save it to Google Photos. I don't know which operating system you are using, but in Windows 10 you can do the following.

1. Open photo in Google Photos
2. Click on "More Options" top right.
3. Download to desktop.
4. Right click on download and then "Show in Folder"
5. "Open with" Paint.
6. In Paint, find Tools tab at top, and select Text.
7. This allows you to insert text into the photo.
8. Save, and upload to Google Photos again.
