How it works
Kitwise Design Maker is a simple, free alternative to apps like Canva for the designs people in Pakistan make every week: sale posts, Eid and Jummah greetings, Ramadan timings, wedding and mehndi cards, admission notices, price lists for WhatsApp status, YouTube thumbnails and shop logos.
Every template is a normal design: click any text to change it, drag things to move them, pull a corner to resize, and use the round handle to rotate. Text can be curved for round logos and badges, outlined, shadowed or put on a box, pill, bubble, burst or ribbon. Urdu headings use real Nastaliq and Naskh fonts, so letters join correctly.
When you are done, download a PNG, JPG or WebP for social media, or a PDF at the exact paper size for printing. Save the design as a .kwdesign file to edit it again later; your last design is also kept in this browser.
How to use the Design Maker, step by step
- Choose a size at the top (Instagram post, story, YouTube thumbnail, A4 poster, business card…) or open Templates and click one.
- Click a text to change the words, font, colour and size. Use “Curve” for round logos.
- Add more from the left: Text, Shapes, Stickers (100+), Photos (with round or heart frames) and Background (colour, gradient or picture).
- Arrange: drag to move, corners to resize, the round handle to rotate. Layers lets you hide, lock and reorder.
- Pick PNG, JPG, WebP or PDF and press Download.

Tips
- Use one big headline, one short line and one call to action (phone number or “Order on WhatsApp”). Fewer words read faster on phones.
- Contrast matters more than colour: light text on dark backgrounds, or dark text on light ones. Add an outline to text that sits on a photo.
- For print, pick the A4/A5/card size first and download PDF; the PDF is made at the exact paper size.
- Keep a .kwdesign file of designs you reuse (price lists, weekly offers) and just change the numbers next time.
