August Updates: New Personalization Features in Customily

Back-to-school season is here 🎒 and we’re helping you get ready with fresh updates. August brings new features and smart improvements to make your workflow faster and your products more customizable than ever.

Let’s dive into what’s new! 🚀

New: Premade Shapes for Text Warp!

We've just made text warping even easier and more flexible in your designs. Before, shaping your text with the warp tool meant manually adjusting the nodes to get the look you wanted. You can still do that—but now we've added a set of premade shape options to speed things up!

💡 Here's what's new:

Choose from a variety of preset shapes for a quick starting point. Instantly apply a shape to your text warp.

Still fully customizable—just hit the ✏️ Edit Shape button to move the shape’s nodes and fine-tune it however you like.

⚙️ How to use it:

1. Create a new design
2. Add a Text Warp element
3. Choose a shape: Move the shape nodes manually or pick from our new Premade Shapes
4. Click ✏️ Edit Shape any time to adjust it further

Better Image Upload Experience 🌟

We’ve added new settings to make managing uploaded images easier and clearer, improving the customer experience, especially on mobile.

These enhancements streamline fulfillment by letting customers fine-tune their images before submitting their personalization.

• 🔍 Zoom in to view small images in detail, perfect for adjusting photos in small areas or on mobile devices.
• ✂️ Adjust/Crop button conveniently placed next to the upload button for quick edits.
• 🌫️ Adjustable crop overlay opacity to easily see what’s outside the cropped area.
• ⏳ Loading indicator while the image is being processed, so you know the app is working when filters take a few seconds to apply.
