Collage Maker

Arrange several photos into a tidy grid collage.

Your files never leave your device.

When to use it

The collage maker combines 2 to 9 photos into a single image. Use it for a holiday highlights post, a before-and-after comparison, a product range in one picture, a birthday or anniversary card, a grid of team photos, or a mood board. One collage is easier to share than a stack of separate photos, and it tells a story at a glance.

How to make a photo collage

  1. Tap Choose photos and select 2 to 9 JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC photos.
  2. Tap a photo in the list to move it one place earlier; use the cross to remove it, or Add photos for more.
  3. Choose a Layout from the list (for example “Big top, two below” or “Grid 2 × 2”).
  4. Pick a Size: Square 1080 × 1080, Portrait 1080 × 1350, Story 1080 × 1920, Landscape 1920 × 1080 or Print 2400 × 1800.
  5. Adjust Spacing, Corners and Background colour.
  6. Press Download collage.

A worked example

After a weekend trip you want one Instagram post with your four best photos. Choose them, make sure the beach panorama is first, and choose “Big top, three below”. Set Portrait 1080 × 1350 so it fills more of the feed, add a little spacing with a white background, and slightly rounded corners. Download it: one clean image with the panorama on top and three smaller moments underneath.

Layout ideas

  • Before and after: “Side by side” with two photos.
  • One hero shot plus details: “Big left, three right” or “One big, six small”.
  • Even grid for a set: “Grid 2 × 2” or “Grid 3 × 3”.
  • Story format: “Stacked” or “Three rows” in Story size.

Tips

  • Mix wide shots and close-ups for variety.
  • Keep colours consistent; photos with similar light look better together.
  • Use spacing to separate busy photos, and a background colour that matches your theme.
  • Put faces away from edges, since photos are cropped to fit their cells.

Common mistakes

  • Too many photos for a small size, making each one tiny on a phone.
  • Important details cut off by cropping; choose a layout with a larger cell for that photo.
  • Using the Print size for social media, which is larger than needed.
  • Mixing very dark and very bright photos, which looks uneven.

Private by design

Your photos are combined in your browser and never uploaded.

Crop photos first with Crop Image, add a caption with Add Text to Image, or shrink the result with Compress Image.

Frequently asked questions

How many photos can a collage have?

Between 2 and 9. The layout list changes to match the number of photos, from "Side by side" for two to "Grid 3 × 3" for nine.

How do I change the order of photos?

Tap a photo in the list to move it one place earlier, and use the cross to remove one. The first photo goes in the largest or first cell of the layout.

Which size should I choose?

Square 1080 × 1080 or Portrait 1080 × 1350 for Instagram posts, Story 1080 × 1920 for Stories and Reels covers, Landscape 1920 × 1080 for slides and screens, and Print 2400 × 1800 for a 6 × 8 in print.

Are my photos cropped?

Yes, each photo is cropped to fill its cell without stretching, keeping the middle of the picture. Put your most important photo in a larger cell for the best fit.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. The collage is assembled in your browser.
