## What is Always9Pics?

Always9Pics is an automatic collage tool built for social platforms that limit posts to 9 images. Select a set of photos, and the app arranges them by story flow, theme, color, size, and time into 9 high-quality long images without unnecessary quality loss.

The best collage is the one you do not have to make by hand. Always9Pics helps with grouping, ordering, and layout so travel memories, daily moments, events, outfits, product shots, and creative work can become a clean 9-image post with less effort.

Key features:
- Select multiple photos and generate 9 long images
- Organize images by story, theme, color, size, and time
- Preserve image clarity and avoid unnecessary compression
- Designed for social platforms where 9 images is the sweet spot
- Process selected photos locally without uploading them to developer servers
- A simple flow: choose photos and let automatic layout do the rest
