Below is a collection of some of the best tools and mobile apps to use for generating word clouds. We have arranged these resources into three main categories: word cloud generators for Google Drive, iPad word cloud generators, and web based tools for creating word clouds.

This is another great word cloud tool. You can use it the same way like Wordle but with an added feature which is that of creating clouds in various forms.
