Make an Instagram puzzle feed that reads as one picture

A puzzle feed turns your profile grid into one continuous artwork: nine, twelve or more posts that line up into a single image while each post still stands on its own. This free puzzle feed maker gives you a canvas the exact size of your grid, with text, photos, colour blocks and your logo on top. It shows where the tile seams fall, previews every post alone, and exports the tiles numbered in posting order — in your browser, with no signup or watermark.

How to design a puzzle grid

  1. 1Pick the grid size: 3×3 for nine posts, up to 3×6 for eighteen. Choose square or 4:5 tiles to match your profile.
  2. 2Start from a template or a blank canvas. Add a background photo or colour, then place text, photos, blocks and your logo. Drag to move, pull a corner to resize.
  3. 3Turn on Profile preview to see the white gaps Instagram adds between posts and keep faces and words off the seams.
  4. 4Export. You get a ZIP with every tile numbered. Post them from 1 upwards and the picture assembles on your profile.

Everything a puzzle feed needs

Frequently asked questions

In which order do I post the tiles?

From the highest number down to 1? No — from 1 upwards. Instagram places the newest post top-left, so tile 1 is bottom-right of your design and the last tile you post lands top-left. The export names every file with its number.

Should I use square or 4:5 tiles?

Instagram's newer profile grid shows posts as 4:5 portraits. If your profile already shows tall tiles, design in 4:5 and post the tiles as 4:5. If it still shows squares, use 1:1.

Why do my seams not line up?

Usually because a tile was cropped on upload or posted in a different ratio. Post each tile without cropping, in the same ratio you designed, and in the numbered order.

Can each post still make sense on its own?

Yes — that is the point of the preview strip under the canvas. Keep one clear element inside every tile and keep faces and words away from the seams.

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. The design is rendered in your browser and exported from there. Nothing leaves your device.
