Everything you need to build an Instagram grid
6 grid presets, plus custom
One-click 3×3, 1×3, 3×1, 2×2, 2×3, and 3×2 layouts, or use the row and column steppers to build any grid from 1×1 up to 6×6.
Tiles numbered in upload order
Every file is pre-numbered in the exact order to post so your finished grid reads correctly — no manual renaming or trial-and-error required.

Your images never leave your device. PixelTools runs entirely in your browser — zero server uploads, zero data stored.

Tiles are sliced from the original image resolution. No downscaling, no recompression — download as lossless PNG or adjustable-quality JPG.

All tiles download together in a single ZIP, already named and ordered, ready to drag straight into Instagram's post composer.

Frequently asked questions
Is PixelTools Instagram Grid Maker free?
+
Yes, completely free with no limits. Split as many images as you want, into as many grids as you want. No subscription, no trial, no account required.
What order do I post the tiles in?
+
Post the lowest-numbered tile first. Instagram profile grids show your most recent post top-left, so PixelTools numbers the bottom-right tile #1 (post first) and the top-left tile last (post last) — by the time you've posted them all, the grid reads correctly on your profile.
What grid layouts are supported?
+
Pick a preset — 3×3 (classic 9-grid), 1×3 or 3×1 (three-tile banners and panoramas), 2×2, 2×3, or 3×2 — or use the row and column steppers to set any custom grid from 1×1 up to 6×6.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
+
No. PixelTools splits images entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your files never leave your device — there is no server upload, no cloud processing, and no data stored anywhere.
Does splitting reduce image quality?
+
No. Each tile is cropped from the original image at full resolution. PNG export is pixel-perfect and lossless; JPG export uses adjustable quality (60–100%) if you want smaller files.
What image should I use for the best-looking grid?
+
Any image works, but for a 3×3 profile grid a square (1:1) source image splits into nine perfectly square tiles. For a 1×3 or 3×1 banner, a wide (roughly 3:1) or tall (1:3) image gives the cleanest result. PixelTools slices whatever aspect ratio you upload — it doesn't crop or resize it first.
Can I download the tiles individually instead of a ZIP?
+
The Split & Download button packages all tiles into one ZIP file, already numbered in posting order, so you don't have to rename or reorder anything before uploading to Instagram.
Does this work with animated GIFs?
+
Grid splitting works on static images (JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, BMP, TIFF). For GIFs, use PixelTools' dedicated GIF tools first to extract a frame, then split that image.
