Create Grid Photos for Your Instagram Feed With These iPhone Apps

On your Instagram feed, those neat little squares are windows into your life, work, and passion. But you can go beyond and display your pictures in full instead. You can do so easily by making them into grid photos, which add a bold, eye-catching look to your feed.

Let’s take a look at some popular apps to beautify your Instagram feed with grid photos. We’ll also check out additional features you can expect from these apps.

1. PREVIEW: Planner for Instagram

Once you link your Instagram account with Preview, you’ll see a mock version of your feed to plan and design. Then, simply drag and drop until everything looks perfect to you. The app is officially approved by Instagram to auto-publish your scheduled content, allowing the post to go live at the best time.

Preview provides everything you need to create stunning content: filters, free stock images, hashtag and caption ideas, and more. Split Image, one of its many features, is for creating grid photos. Use the simple 2×1 grid for a subtle pop of interest. Try the large 3×5 grid to highlight a special photo.

Do note that Split Image is only available on paid versions of Preview. Feel free to take the time to explore its free features before committing to this convenient, all-in-one app for your Instagram content.
