Instagram tiles maker: what to know

This page starts the instagram grid maker for this case. For every option and how to use it, see the instagram grid maker.

Instagram tiles size

Each tile here is 1080 × 1440 pixels. That is 3:4, the tallest shape Instagram keeps without cropping, at the full 1080-pixel width it stores. So Instagram has nothing to trim or shrink when you upload a tile.

Your whole image should be three tiles wide and three tall: 3240 × 4320 pixels. A smaller image still works, but each tile is enlarged to fit and may look soft. Pick 4:5 or square from the tile shape buttons if you'd rather match an older grid.

How to make 9 tiles on Instagram

Choose your photo, check the preview and download the zip. You get nine files, named so that sorting by name puts them in posting order. Post each one as its own post, starting with tile 1 and ending with tile 9, which lands top left.

Questions

What are the little squares on Instagram?

They're your posts, shown as tiles on your profile, three to a row. Make a 9-tile grid and one picture spreads across three rows of them.

How do I make a post go across 2 tiles?

Pick 1 row from the rows buttons: you get 3 tiles, side by side. To span only 2, plan your design so the third tile is a plain colour or its own picture.

Do I need an Instagram tiles app?

No. This page runs in your phone's browser, so you can split the photo and save the tiles to your camera roll without installing anything.
