Try editing selected words yourself
New in Andalusi: select one or more words inside a text layer and drag the two handles to widen the selection, then change just those words' font, size or colour, or give them a background. The rest of the text stays exactly as it was.
The preview above is a live recreation of the app's word selection tool: tap a word or drag the handles to widen the selection, then open a tool from the bottom bar.
