About This Tool
Instagram Carousel Splitter cuts a wide picture into slides that join up as you swipe through a single Instagram post. Choose anything from 2 to 20 slides, pick the slide shape - portrait 4:5 at 1080 x 1350 pixels, square, or landscape - and drag and zoom the picture until the split falls where you want it. The tool even suggests the number of slides that crops your image the least. Download the slides one at a time or all together as a ZIP, then add them to one post in the order shown. Everything happens in your browser, so your image is never uploaded to our server.
Frequently Asked Questions
Instagram allows up to 20 images or videos in a single carousel post. This tool goes up to 20, although 3 to 6 slides is the usual choice for a panorama, because people stop swiping after a few slides.
Portrait 4:5 at 1080 x 1350 pixels is the best choice, because it takes up the most screen space in the feed. Square 1080 x 1080 and landscape 1080 x 566 are also supported. Every slide in a carousel must be the same shape, which the tool takes care of.
Yes, as long as you add them to the post in order, starting with Slide 1, and do not crop them inside the Instagram app. Each slide is cut from the exact point where the previous one ends. Instagram shows a small gap between slides as you swipe, so a seamless picture reads as a panorama rather than a single unbroken image.
A carousel is one post you swipe through sideways. A grid is several separate posts that line up into one picture on your profile page. Use this tool for a swipeable panorama, and the Instagram Grid Planner for a profile grid.
A wide, high-resolution picture. For four portrait slides you want about 4320 x 1350 pixels or more, which is 1080 pixels across for each slide. A panorama from your phone is usually ideal.
No. The image is split in your browser, so it never leaves your device, and nothing is stored anywhere.
