After the V2 update that turned the tool into a full-fledged label manager, RecalCards Gen takes things a step further. This V2.5 brings new creation tools, advanced image settings, and a genuine design-software-level workspace, all while staying super accessible.
New tools have joined the generator. The text tool lets you add titles, captions, or any other inscription directly onto your labels, without needing an external editor. The shapes tool rounds out the palette, adding simple graphic elements (frames, circles, solid shapes, dividers) to help you structure your compositions more easily.
Still with the goal of giving you more creative control, V3 introduces a symmetry function to flip your visuals with a single click, along with an opacity setting to layer and blend your images together. This opens the door to far more elaborate compositions.

This is arguably the biggest change in this version. The workspace now includes features usually found in graphic design software: zoom in and out to fine-tune details, a grid and snapping to precisely align every element, and true layer management to organize your most complex compositions.
To fit your preferences (and your late-night creative sessions), the generator now offers a light mode and a dark mode.
