About

Layout for Instagram

Features
Read full description

Layout turns up to six photos into one square collage suited for sharing. No watermark, no ads, no tracking. Pick photos from the grid at the bottom of the screen. They drop onto the canvas as you tap, watch the photo collage take shape. RESIZE ANYTHING Every divider is draggable. Pull the line between two photos to give one of them more room. The presets are only starting points β€” anything between them is one drag away. FRAME EACH SHOT Pinch to zoom and drag to reposition within any cell. Photos always fill their pane, so you never get a stray gap or a letterboxed edge. Double-tap to reset a zoomed in photo. SHARE ANYWHERE Export at full resolution to Messages, AirDrop, or straight to your camera roll. No watermarks, ever. BUILT SMALL, ON PURPOSE No accounts. No sign-ins. No ads. No subscriptions. No bloat. Layout has no networking code at all β€” your photos never leave your device, all photos are completely private. Layout is completely FREE. If you get use out of it there's a tip jar in the Settings - entirely optional. Thank you! Designed and developed in Northern California.
