Panogrid: Photo Grid Splitter

A photo splitter for Instagram, Panogrid cuts one photo into a seamless 3×1, 3×2 or 3×3 grid, or into a swipe panorama, with every piece lined up edge to edge on the 3:4 profile grid. No white borders unless you add one, no watermark and no limit on how many photos you split. Pick a photo, choose the shape, tap Split & Save.

FITS THE 3:4 PROFILE GRID
A grid maker for Instagram has to match today's 3:4 profile feed, not yesterday's squares: pieces cut for squares or for 4:5 end up with gaps, white lines or a crooked row. The splitter cuts 3:4 pieces by default, edge to edge from your photo, so all nine meet with no gap in your feed. Posting taller 4:5 posts? Turn on Grid-safe: the profile crops a 4:5 post at the left and right, so the app keeps the 3:4 center of each piece aligned with its neighbours and fills the hidden sides with real photo, not white bars. A dashed frame in the editor shows what the profile will display. Borders stay off by default; add a thin white or black border only if you want one.

FULL QUALITY AFTER THE SPLIT
This photo splitter starts every split from the original photo and resizes each piece once, at the size the app expects: 1080 px wide JPEG at quality 95, 1080×1440 for 3:4 and 1080×1350 for 4:5. Display P3 colors are converted to sRGB, and portrait shots stay upright thanks to the EXIF rotation. Very large photos work too: a 100 MP photo or a 12000 px phone panorama splits without running out of memory.

SWIPEABLE PANORAMAS
The same splitter turns a wide shot into a swipeable panorama for Instagram: two or three slides that read as one picture when people swipe the carousel. It works as a simple carousel maker: a carousel preview shows the swipe before you save, and Share all as carousel sends the slides in order, left to right.

POST IN THE RIGHT ORDER
Splitting a photo is half the job; posting in order is the other half. On a profile the newest post sits at the top left, so the bottom-right piece has to go up first. After saving, the Post order screen numbers each piece in big type, with number 1 at the bottom right. Tap Share tile 1: Instagram opens with that piece if it is installed, otherwise the share sheet does. Come back for number 2, and so on. Files are named 01-post-first to 09-post-last in Pictures/Panogrid/, so the order is clear in any gallery. History keeps every set, to share again later.

THREE TAPS, NOTHING IN THE WAY
The splitter takes three taps: pick, choose, split. Drag, pinch or rotate the photo by 90° under the cut lines, which stay still. A simulated profile preview shows your split on top of the 3×3 layout before anything is saved. You can also share a photo to Panogrid from your gallery or another app. Ads never appear while you cut, and nothing pops up between picking a photo and the Post order screen.

PRIVATE AND OFFLINE
The photo splitter runs entirely on your phone: every photo is split there and never uploaded. No account, no sign-in, and no storage permission: the Android photo picker gives Panogrid only the photo you choose. It works offline.
