PicMonkey is an online photo editor and design tool, owned by Shutterstock since 2021. It’s known for its photo touch-up tools, which makes it a good choice for Facebook covers built around portraits, products or lifestyle photos.
Key features include:
- Facebook cover and social media templates
- Touch Up tools for portraits and skin retouching
- Background Remover and Color Changer
- 9,000+ graphics and textures and hundreds of fonts
- Shutterstock stock photos and video
- Brand Kit for logos, fonts and colors on higher plans
- Collaboration tools for teams on Business
You can create designs using PicMonkey’s effects, graphics and templates, but you need a subscription to download or share them. A 7-day free trial is available. The Basic plan costs about $72 per year (around $6 per month) with 1 GB of storage. Pro, from about $7.99 per month, adds unlimited storage, a Brand Kit and priority support, and Business adds multiple brand kits and team collaboration. Prices vary by billing period, so check current rates.
There’s no free plan for downloads, and AI tools are lighter than Canva’s. For photo touch-ups and polished photo-led covers, though, PicMonkey is a solid choice.
