I’ve used this app frequently and I now see they are supporting higher resolution exports. I hope this app is picked up again by the developer and more features added. Thank you! Love the simplicity of the app. ### 3/5 — Needs updating *2019-09-29, version 1.1.3.1* Worked well until I updated my phone to IOS 13.1.1 now the app is not compatible and will not function on my phone, there is no way to upload your photos to Instagram after you create the grid ### 3/5 — Quality issues *2019-09-17, version 1.1.3.1* easy to use but quality gets destroyed ### 4/5 — works well but limited *2018-11-25, version 1.1.3.1* i wish there were more options for configuration. i really want to be able to do a 2x2 grid. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2018-05-25* 30 second ads before every use and slow UI ### 1/5 — Didn’t work *2018-03-29* I get a black screen when I try to open the grid it function. So tired of apps that don’t work!! **Developer response:** Hi there! Sorry to hear you are having trouble. We've made a number of updates since this release and would recommend updating to a new version :) ### 1/5 — Trashy *2018-01-25* Garbagy ### 4/5 — Great app *2018-01-21* It’s a great app for the purpose it serves. The ads could to be a little less tho. ### 1/5 — Not working *2018-01-07, version 1.1.1* Not good. Not even working.. What a waste ### 1/5 — No worky *2017-10-29, version 1.1* On iPhone 7 Plus - never got past the “select an image” menu option. Even after I waited two minutes one time and four minutes the second time ... no worky. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I need *2022-08-27* I would like it to take images from both my camera roll AND my saved folder in my IG. and I need it to capture video, not just a still image. ### 1/5 — Not working *2020-04-13* Used in the past but no longer working. Just spoon feeding ads with no opportunity to access or split my images **Developer response:** Hi there! Sorry to hear you are having trouble. Sounds like something is going wrong here as we do allow you to split, save and share images to Instagram. Can you please get in touch with us on hello@ruapeakstech.com and expand on the issues you are having? ### 1/5 — Terrible. *2019-07-07* Image quality reduces to the point of them being completely useless and you have to watch a 30 second ad every time you want to grid something unless you upgrade. **Developer response:** Hi there! The images are only downsized to the maximum size that Instagram will allow us to share. If you are seeing poor quality, please share an example with us to investigate. There are a few Ads to support the development of the app, you can pay a small one-time fee however to remove these forever! Seems a like a good deal to us. ### 1/5 — Where’s the upgrade *2019-02-26, version 1.1.3.1* I’ve tried to upgrade, I get sent in loops, endless loops, not upgrade, thought. Sad ### 1/5 — Very bad *2019-01-24* When I got this I was trying to use it but it kept on crashing I do no recommend this app!! **Developer response:** Hi there! Sorry to hear you are having trouble. We've made a number of updates since this release and would recommend updating to a new version :) ### 1/5 — Really??? *2018-08-20, version 1.1.3.1* When I posted more individual pictures, my older grid photos messed up, and could only be fixed by erasing some posts that I didn’t want to erase, and some pics magically disappeared from the grids as I made new posts...😔 ### 1/5 — Bad quality *2018-07-05* The convenience is great but it’s not worth much as the image quality drops dramatically after it’s been split into the grid **Developer response:** Hi there! The images are only downsized to the maximum size that Instagram will allow us to share. If you are seeing poor quality, please share an example with us to investigate. Thanks so much! ### 1/5 — Why? *2018-06-26* I bought it and it doesn’t function correctly ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work! *2018-06-05* Paid for premium and it doesn’t work! ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2018-05-29* Every step of the process has an advert which is very annoying. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Really easy! *2021-02-18* I use this frequently and it’s always worked as expected! ### 5/5 — Happy so far *2020-08-23* Not been using it long but it’s simple to use and does what it says **Developer response:** Great! Let us know if you have any feedback or would like to see any new features :) ### 5/5 — The Best Free App *2020-07-27* The Best Free App for Instagram grids. **Developer response:** Thanks! :) ### 5/5 — Absolutely FABULOUS *2019-05-07* You only have to watch a single AD which is skippable after 5 seconds. Then you can grid your image in up to 12 squares with no watermark or logo. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND ### 5/5 — Quality *2019-05-02* Great app I’d love to if the quality of the individual shots were a bit better pixel wise ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2019-02-26, version 1.1.3.1* A guy from SOUTH CAROLINA loves it ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2019-01-27* Top class ### 5/5 — Very Good *2018-12-31* Actually works, and you only have to watch 1 advert per use. Would recommend to anyone who is trying to have a fancier looking Instagram page ### 5/5 — Very Good *2018-09-10* Only free one that I found, instead of having others that take you through the whole process and then making you pay. ### 5/5 — Best grid app *2017-12-16, version 1.1.1* THE BEST ONE UNTIL NOW! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
