This tool enables you to split your design vertically, horizontally, or both ways to create a grid split. Once you have added the guides and designed your post, you can use a free tool to cut up your post, such as our free split image tool. You can use any design program that allows you to place guides on your image, but I’m going to show you Canva and Photoshop.

To do this, first, you should use a design program to create the helplines to see how the cut photo or design looks. You need to plan your posts to accomplish this and create posts that will drive traffic and encourage likes and follows. Any posts without a point of interest won’t work on Instagram. You don’t want to upload a photo when a post only shows a slightly blurred background. If you are splitting an image, you can position it so that a strong area of focus is on each slide or post. Using helplines, you can position your design on the canvas to ensure that no critical information is cut by the split, whether posting the pictures separately or on a carousel. To split an image or design for Instagram accurately, you need to know where the post will be cut.
