Instagram Grid Maker

Turn one photo into a three-column Instagram profile grid. Choose 3, 6, 9, or 12 tiles and download files numbered in the order you should post them.

Image splitting tools

Choose a general pixel-preserving split, a profile grid, or a continuous carousel. Each tool processes the image in your browser.

Current Instagram guidance

Meta documents photo widths up to 1080 pixels with supported ratios from 1.91:1 through 3:4, and says one chosen orientation applies across every item in a carousel. Check the image-resolution guidance and carousel instructions before publishing because platform behavior can change.

Same job on a different file type or batch size. Each tool still processes the file in this browser.

Build a Profile Grid From One Image

The tool center-crops one source into a complete three-column mural, then exports upload-ready tiles with posting-order labels.

3, 6, 9, or 12 Posts

Choose a 1×3 banner row, 2×3 layout, classic 3×3 puzzle grid, or 4×3 mural. The preview shows every tile before export.

Current Portrait and Square Shapes

Export each tile at 1080×1440 (3:4), 1080×1350 (4:5), or 1080×1080 (1:1). Instagram currently preserves supported photo ratios from 1.91:1 through 3:4.

Files Numbered in Posting Order

Instagram places the newest post at the top-left of the profile grid, so the ZIP starts with the bottom-right tile and ends with the top-left tile.

How to make a 3×3 Instagram grid from one photo?

  1. 1

    Step 1: Upload the full grid image

    Choose a sharp JPG, PNG, or WebP source with enough detail to remain clear after it is divided.

  2. 2

    Step 2: Choose the grid and post shape

    Select 3, 6, 9, or 12 posts and choose 3:4 portrait, 4:5 portrait, or square tiles.

  3. 3

    Step 3: Review the center crop

    Check the grid overlay because the source is center-cropped to the combined shape of all tiles.

  4. 4

    Step 4: Post in numbered order

    Download the ZIP and publish upload 01 first. Continue in order so the completed mural lands in the intended profile positions.

What size should Instagram grid tiles be?

The tool exports each tile 1080 pixels wide. The default 3:4 option is 1080×1440, while 4:5 is 1080×1350 and square is 1080×1080.

What order do I post an Instagram puzzle grid?

Start with the bottom-right tile, move right-to-left across the bottom row, and continue upward. The downloaded files are numbered in that posting order.

Does the grid maker crop my photo?

Yes. It uses a centered crop so the complete source matches the combined aspect ratio of the chosen rows, three columns, and tile shape. Review the overlay before creating the files.

Can I make a 3×3 Instagram grid?

Yes. Select the 3×3 option to create nine tiles. You can also make one, two, or four rows of three posts.

Can I download the whole grid at once?

Yes. Download all tiles in one ZIP, or save individual tiles from the result grid.

Does this tool publish the posts to Instagram?

No. It creates and numbers the image files locally. You still review and publish each post through your own Instagram account.
