About GridMakr: Carousel & Collage
Your feed. But couture. You take the photos. GridMakr does the rest: hang a gallery wall across the slides of a carousel, turn one wide shot into panels that line up at the seams, stack a few favourites into one post — and mix all three in a single carousel. Or hand a pile of photos to Magic and get the whole post in one tap. Then hand Instagram numbered, full-size files. MAGIC Pick a pile of photos. Magic deals them into a complete post: stacks, mosaics, panoramas and gallery walls, mixed. Not that one? Tap again for another take. Two knobs: Vibe, from calm to wild, and Order, which sorts your photos by colour so neighbours blend or pop. Every take is one undo away. STACK Two to six photos in rows or columns inside one 9:16, 3:4, 4:5 or 1:1 post. Drag the dividers; they snap to halves and thirds. SLICE One wide shot spread across up to 20 carousel panels. Pan and zoom it as one canvas; the seams snap so the swipe is seamless. HANG A GALLERY WALL Pick a handful of photos and get a proposed hang across the slides. Shuffle, tweak scatter and sizes, pin the frames you love, move the rest by hand and turn any of them with two fingers. MAKE IT YOURS Colour the paper behind every slide, from your photos or any colour you like. Give frames a shadow or a border, or style one on its own. On Wild, Magic dresses and leans them for you. TEXT ON YOUR SLIDES Write on one slide or across the whole post: 15 fonts, any colour, uppercase if you like. Drag it anywhere, even across the seam between two slides. CUT IT OUT Hold a gallery frame and choose Cut out subject: the person or thing stays, the background goes, and the frame's border and shadow follow the outline. Cut a panorama or a gallery at any slide, and that slide becomes one of its own. VIDEO, TOO Videos go wherever photos go: a stack of clips playing side by side, a video hung on the gallery wall, a panorama cut from one wide clip. Shaky clip? Send it to Video Stabilizer Pro and it comes back steady, into the same cell. ONE CAROUSEL, ANY MIX A stack, then a panorama, then a gallery — in one post. Ratio and frame are shared across every slide, just like Instagram wants it. Trade photos and clips with Swap with…, even across slides, and hold and drag in the strip to reorder. Close the gaps in the canvas to preview the post edge to edge. Leave it unfinished and pick it up from Home later. BUILT FOR HOW INSTAGRAM WORKS • 3:4, 4:5 and 1:1 for the feed; 9:16 for Stories, Reels and TikTok • Every slide previewed before it goes out, then exported in order at 1080 px — or 1440 px with Pro • Plain JPEGs and videos that are yours — post them, send them, print them NOTHING LEAVES THIS IPHONE No upload, no account, no tracking, no ads. GridMakr uses Apple's photo picker, so it only ever sees the photos you hand it, and it never asks for access to your library. GRIDMAKR PRO Every feature is free to use and export. Free exports carry a small GridMakr mark in the corner of each slide; GridMakr Pro removes it and exports at 1440 px. Pro is an auto-renewing subscription: • GridMakr Pro Weekly — billed every week • GridMakr Pro Yearly — billed every year, starting with a 3-day free trial Prices are shown in the app before you buy and may vary by country. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when the free trial ends. A subscription renews automatically unless it is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings after purchase. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription.

What’s new
Version 5.0 · Updated October 17, 2026
Text, cutouts, and one slide cut free. TEXT ON YOUR SLIDES Write on one slide or across the whole post from the new Text tab. 15 fonts, any colour, in uppercase if you like. Drag it where it belongs, even across the seam between two slides, and size it by its corners. CUT OUT A SUBJECT Hold a gallery frame and choose Cut out subject. The person or thing stays, the background goes, and the frame's border and shadow follow their outline. The photo is kept, so you can put it back. CUT OUT A SLIDE A panorama or a gallery can be cut at any slide: hold it in the strip and choose Cut out slide. That slide becomes a slide of its own, and the slides either side stay together as they were, with the same photos, framing and frames. One undo puts it all back.
