We’ve all seen those grids that use individual posts to create one big singular image. It’s a technique where they split one image into several tiles or Instagram squares in order for it to look like one image on their grid. Splitting an image is a great way to style your Instagram grid - making it look and feel unique. But have you ever wondered how you can split photos for your Instagram grid? Well, we have the answer.
On PLANOLY’s mobile app, our splitter tool can help you achieve this look by allowing you to split images across your Instagram grid or in a carousel post. Here, we’ll guide you through the key information about the splitter tool, how to access it on PLANOLY, and share examples of how brands use it to share their unique story.
PLANOLY Pro-Tip: Make sure the image you’re splitting is a high-resolution image so it doesn't become pixelated after the split. If your image is lower than our recommended image resolution, you will receive a warning screen in case you'd like to adjust your imagery.
Step 1: Tap on the “+” sign at the bottom of your screen
Step 2: Upload a high-resolution image from your preferred content source
Step 3: Tap on the grid icon at the bottom right of your image
Step 4: Choose to split your image into two, three, four, six or nine images
Step 5: Tap on ‘SPLIT’ once you choose your splitting style
Step 6: Choose to either upload image as a carousel post or separate posts
Step 7: Your image has now been split and added to your PLANOLY grid
