How to make a photo collage

  1. Select Choose files and add your photos.
  2. Pick a layout. The small pictures show where each photo goes.
  3. Set the spacing between photos and a background colour.
  4. Choose an export size, square or portrait, and a format.
  5. Check the preview, reorder photos with Up and Down if needed, then select Create collage and Download.

Layouts

There are eight layouts: two photos side by side or stacked, a four-photo grid, two three-photo layouts with one large photo, three columns, and grids of six and nine. Pick a layout that matches how many photos you have. Photos fill the spots in the order of your list, so the first photo goes top left.

Spacing and background

Spacing sets the outer margin and the gap between photos. Zero gives a seamless mosaic. Eight to twenty pixels gives a clean, framed look. The background colour shows in the margin and the gaps, so a white or black border works well for most pictures, and a bright colour suits a party or a product post.

Export sizes

The collage is always rendered at 1080 pixels wide. Choose 1080 by 1080 for a square feed post, or 1080 by 1350 for a 4:5 portrait post that takes more room on a phone screen. The preview on the page is smaller, but the downloaded file has the full size.

Tips

Everything runs on your device. Your photos are never uploaded.

Questions

What sizes can I export?

1080 by 1080 pixels for a square post, or 1080 by 1350 pixels for a portrait post. Both are standard Instagram sizes.

What if I add fewer photos than the layout has spots?

The photos repeat from the first one to fill the empty spots. Choose a layout with fewer spots to avoid repeats.

How do I change which photo goes where?

Photos fill the spots in list order. Use the Up and Down buttons to reorder them, and the preview updates at once.

Are the photos cropped?

Yes. Each photo is scaled to cover its spot and the centre is kept, like a thumbnail. Crop the photo first if you need a different part.

Can I choose PNG or JPG?

Yes. JPG makes smaller files for sharing. PNG is lossless.
