How to design, edit, and export in Vinsia Studio.
Getting started
Vinsia Studio runs in your browser - no account, nothing uploaded. Start designing to create a project, or browse templates for a specific layout or frame. Start designing Templates
Two ways to start
Pick a layout first - choose a grid, an optional frame, and a name. The canvas opens with empty photo slots.
Take photos first - capture or upload as many as you like, then pick a layout. They drop into the slots in order; extras still land on the canvas. Take your photos first
The toolbar
Undo/redo, duplicate/delete, group/ungroup, layer order, alignment, zoom, layers panel, shortcuts, dark mode, and export.
To zoom the canvas (not the page), hold Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) and scroll, or pinch on a trackpad.
Adding content
The left panel has one tab per tool:
- Photos - drag & drop, upload, or use your webcam. New photos fill the next empty slot.
- Frames - swap or remove the overlay anytime.
- Text, Shapes, Stickers, Emoji - click to add, then drag, resize, or rotate.
- Draw - freehand brush with color and size controls.
- QR Code - turn a link or text into a scannable code.
- Date - stamp today's date or time.
Layers & history
The Layers tab lists every object, top first. Drag to reorder, or use the eye/lock/delete icons. Undo/redo cover the whole editor.
Filters
Select a photo, then use the Edit tab for presets (Vintage, Retro, Kodak, Fuji, Film, Black & White) or manual brightness, contrast, exposure, saturation, temperature, hue, and blur. Presets and manual adjustments combine.
Exporting
Export from the toolbar: PNG, JPG, WEBP, SVG, or PDF, a resolution (Low/Medium/High), and an optional transparent background. Projects with more than one photo can download a ZIP with every photo plus the final design.
Privacy & storage
Projects save automatically to your browser (IndexedDB) - nothing is sent anywhere. Recently captured/uploaded photos are a temporary cache that clears itself after a few days.
Shortcuts
Open the keyboard icon in the toolbar for the full list.
