# Using Apple Writing Tools and Image Playground in the Buffer iOS app

### Writing Tools

If you need help crafting the perfect caption for your post, you can easily access Apple's Writing Tools from the Buffer iOS composer. Simply highlight the text you'd like to change and then tap Writing Tools in the menu that appears:

![Buffer mobile app - Apple Writing Tools option when post caption text is selected](https://support.buffer.com/api/attachments.redirect?id=6a101a13-0516-455d-8486-fe6f1e84fe77 " =1179x2556")

This should open the Writing Tools menu, where you can describe the change you'd like to make, tweak the tone, ask to rewrite, or proofread your text.

## Image Playground

If you'd like to create your own images for your post using Apple Intelligence, you can easily access Image Playground from the Buffer iOS composer. Simply click on ***Attach*** and then select ***Image Playground*** from the menu that appears, like this:

![Buffer mobile app - Image Playground option within the composer](https://support.buffer.com/api/attachments.redirect?id=5c014f1f-8672-4a3f-9d67-948c225a7d43 " =1179x2556")

From there, you can describe the image you'd like to create, let the Image Playground do its magic, and once you're happy with your image, you can tap ***Done*** to insert the image into your Buffer post.
