You can use this method by passing your bitmap & text as parameters:

private Bitmap ProcessingBitmap(Bitmap bm1, String captionString){
Bitmap bm1 = null;
Bitmap newBitmap = null;

try {


Config config = bm1.getConfig();
if(config == null){
config = Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888;
}

newBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bm1.getWidth(), bm1.getHeight(), config);
Canvas newCanvas = new Canvas(newBitmap);

newCanvas.drawBitmap(bm1, 0, 0, null);


if(captionString != null){

Paint paintText = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
paintText.setColor(Color.BLUE);
paintText.setTextSize(50);
paintText.setStyle(Style.FILL);
paintText.setShadowLayer(10f, 10f, 10f, Color.BLACK);

Rect rectText = new Rect();
paintText.getTextBounds(captionString, 0, captionString.length(), rectText);

newCanvas.drawText(captionString, 
  0, rectText.height(), paintText);

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), 
  "drawText: " + captionString, 
  Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), 
  "caption empty!", 
  Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}

} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

return newBitmap;
}

This worked for me. I just wanna do little enhancement in it. I want to add white text with transparent black background. How to do that?? — Suraj, Apr 19 '19 at 12:56

First,

add the permission:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

Then, use the LocationManager:

LocationManager manager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); 
Location loc = manager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
double longi = loc.getLongitude();
double lat = loc.getLatitude();

Use this code into your LocationListener

Then, when you save your image, save also the latitude and the longitude in a SQLite database for example:

table: [my_images] : (id, path, latitude, longitude)

Hope it helps.
