Best for
Instagram creators who want a clean, aesthetic profile grid or seamless carousel without uploading images to a server
GridSplit is a free, browser-based tool for splitting one image into a perfectly tiled Instagram grid, a seamless carousel, or a TikTok banner. Upload a photo, choose your layout (3×3 grid, carousel, full-screen tile, or banner), adjust the crop, and download numbered tiles with a built-in posting order guide. All image processing happens locally in your browser — your photo never leaves your device. The live profile preview lets you check how your grid will look before you post.
What You Can Do with GridSplit for Instagram
- Create an Instagram grid layout from one image — Upload a wide or tall image and GridSplit slices it into 9 perfectly sized tiles (3×3 grid) — ready to post in numbered order so the full image appears across your profile page.
- Build a seamless Instagram carousel — Split one panoramic or wide image into carousel tiles that flow edge-to-edge — so swiping through the carousel reveals a continuous image without visible borders or breaks.
- Design a TikTok banner — Create a TikTok profile banner by splitting one image into the correct banner dimensions (3240×1440) — then selecting each piece as your TikTok cover in the right order.
- Preview your profile grid before posting — Use the built-in profile preview to see exactly how your finished grid will look on your Instagram profile page — before you download or post a single tile.
- Process images privately without uploading — All cropping, splitting, and tile generation happens locally in your browser. Your original photo never touches a server — useful for brand assets, unreleased work, or personal photos.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is GridSplit free?
Yes, GridSplit is completely free. There's no account, no watermark on downloaded tiles, and no upload limits. All features — grid splitting, carousels, TikTok banners, and the profile preview — are available at no cost.
Is GridSplit safe? Does it upload my images?
GridSplit processes all images locally in your browser. Your photo never leaves your device and is never uploaded to any server. This makes it safe to use with brand assets, unreleased photography, or personal photos.
What order do I post Instagram grid tiles?
Post from bottom-right to top-left. GridSplit numbers your tiles in posting order — tile 1 goes first (bottom-right of your grid), and the last tile completes the top-left. The tool includes a posting order guide with each download.
What image sizes does GridSplit produce?
GridSplit outputs tiles at Instagram's standard dimensions: 1080×1440 pixels per tile for a 3×3 grid, 1080×1350 for carousel tiles, 1080×1920 for full-screen tiles, and 1080×1440 per tile for TikTok banners. The total source image is 3240 pixels wide for a 3-column grid.
Can I use GridSplit for Instagram carousels?
Yes. Select the carousel layout, upload a wide or panoramic image, and GridSplit splits it into side-by-side tiles that flow seamlessly edge-to-edge when someone swipes through your carousel post.
Does GridSplit work on mobile?
GridSplit runs in any modern browser and works on mobile. The drag-and-zoom interface is more comfortable on a desktop or tablet, but the tool is fully functional on a smartphone browser as well.
