Turn one image into a feed centrepiece

Split one image into a seamless Instagram grid, 3×3, 1×3 and more, and download every tile in the right order to post a striking multi-image feed.

A grid post splits a single large image across several Instagram squares so your profile shows one big picture made of tiles. Upload your image, choose a layout like 3×3, and the splitter cuts it into equal pieces you can post in sequence for a seamless panorama effect.

Detailed guide

Posted in the right order

Tiles are numbered so you upload them in the correct sequence for Instagram's grid, which fills right-to-left and top-to-bottom. Turn on square-crop for perfectly even tiles. Everything is processed in your browser, your photos are never uploaded.

Sizing your image for a clean grid

Instagram's profile grid now shows posts as 3:4 portrait tiles, while older layouts and many tools still assume squares. For a 3-column grid, start from an image that is three tiles wide: 3240 × 1080 px for one row of square tiles or 3240 × 4320 px for a 3 × 3 portrait panorama. Use an image with a strong subject spread across the width so each tile still makes sense when viewed on its own in the feed. Avoid putting faces or text exactly on a cut line, because a thin gap separates tiles on the profile and can slice through an important detail.

Posting order and carousel tips

Instagram places the newest post at the top left, so a grid must be uploaded in reverse: post the bottom-right tile first and the top-left tile last. The splitter numbers the tiles in upload order to make this easy. If you post other content afterwards, it will push the grid down and shift it by one tile per post, so plan grids as a set. For a seamless swipe instead of a profile mural, split a wide image into a single row and upload the tiles together as one carousel post, where they appear side by side in order.

Frequently asked questions

How do I post a grid on Instagram?

Split your image here, then upload the tiles in numbered order. Instagram fills the grid right-to-left, top-to-bottom, so posting in sequence recreates the full image.

What layouts are supported?

3×3, 1×3, 2×3 and 3×1. Turn on square-crop to keep every tile perfectly even.

Will the tiles line up seamlessly?

Yes: the splitter cuts equal pieces from the same image, so they reassemble seamlessly on your profile grid.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Splitting happens entirely in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.

How do I split a photo into a 3x3 Instagram grid?

Upload the image, choose the grid (for example 3x3), and the tool slices it into numbered tiles that assemble into one big picture on your profile. Download them as a ZIP in posting order.

How do I make an Instagram puzzle feed?

Split a large image into tiles and post them in reverse order so they line up into a seamless picture across your grid. The tool numbers each tile so you post them correctly.

Can I split a panorama into a swipeable carousel?

Yes. Slice a wide image into equal panels for a swipeable carousel or a grid, then download all pieces at once.
