Griddal turns one photo into content that looks right the moment you post it. Make seamless carousels. Start with one wide canvas, add your photos, then drag, pinch and rotate them across the slide seams so the swipe flows as one continuous image. Choose 2 to 10 slides in 4:5, 3:4 or 1:1. Edge snapping keeps everything aligned, and a built-in crop tool fine-tunes each frame. Export that lines up. Every slide saves at 1080 px wide, drawn from your full-resolution photos so the seams match on the feed. Preview the swipe before you export, then Save All to Photos with slide 1 first in your Recents, or share straight away. Split a photo into a profile grid. Turn one image into a clean grid, from 3x1 up to 3x5 tiles, in 3:4 (the current profile grid shape) or 1:1. Older square splitters leave you cropped on a modern profile. Griddal does not. Post in the right order. Tiles are numbered in posting order, starting bottom right. Tap a tile to share it, mark it posted as you go, and resume later without losing your place. Private by design. Griddal works offline with no account and no sign-up. Your projects stay on your device. No ads, no tracking, no watermark on your exports. Built to be fast and crisp, not another slow template gallery. Instagram and IG are trademarks of Instagram

TrueThings is the app for the two of you: seven games you play live on two phones, 300 questions for real conversations and little notes that land right on your partner's home screen. Made for long-distance love and cozy nights in. SEVEN GAMES, TWO PHONES When you both tap Play, the round starts on both phones at once. You get a heads-up when it's your turn, so a game can keep going in between, all day long. - The classic card game with +2, +4 and skips, and yes, draw cards stack - Word race: each of you picks a secret word only you two would know - Four in a row - Sink the fleet: a hit earns you another shot - Find the pairs - Emoji quiz with movies, songs and celebs - Do You Know Me? Answer, guess, compare 300 QUESTIONS THAT GO DEEPER Six decks of 50 cards, fifteen per round. Swipe, talk, argue a little, repeat. - Get to Know Each Other - Never Have I Ever - What Would Your Partner Choose? - Is It Cheating If... - Green Flag or Red Flag? - Who Is More Likely To? NOTES FOR THEIR HOME SCREEN Draw or write a little note and it lands right in the widget on your partner's home screen. A notification lets them know it's there. YOUR THINGS PLAY ALONG Design your own Thing: a fluffy little creature with your pick of color, eyes, ears and accessory. It cheers, sulks and celebrates with you in every game, and emotes let you react mid-match. YOUR STORY AT A GLANCE Two photos, your anniversary and a counter showing how long you've been together, in years, days, hours or minutes. ONE PLAN FOR BOTH OF YOU One pays, both play: whoever subscribes unlocks TrueThings on both phones. Your partner never has to buy anything. HOW TO START 1. Download TrueThings on both phones. 2. One of you shares a code, the other enters it. 3. One of you subscribes, and you both play. TrueThings requires a subscription, taken out by one of you. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it anytime in your Apple ID settings. Terms of Use: https://truethingsapp.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://truethingsapp.com/privacy
