Preset & Custom Grids
Quick presets from 2×1 to 5×5, or set any custom columns × rows. The grid overlay updates live so you can see the cuts before splitting.
Instagram Carousels
Split a panorama into 3×1 tiles for a seamless Instagram carousel. Upload tiles in order (1, 2, 3) to create a continuous swipeable image.
100% Private
All splitting happens in your browser via the Canvas API. Your image stays on your device — no server upload, no storage, no tracking.
How the image splitter works
The splitter divides your image into equal rectangular tiles based on the grid you choose. Each tile is rendered to its own Canvas element at the original resolution — no downscaling or quality loss. You can pick from 8 quick presets (2×1 through 5×5) or set custom columns and rows up to 10×10. The grid overlay updates live on the preview so you can see exactly where the cuts will fall before splitting. To combine images back into a collage, use the Collage Maker.
Instagram carousel grids
For a seamless Instagram carousel, split a wide panorama into 3×1 (three columns, one row). Upload the tiles in order and viewers swipe left to see the continuous image. For the popular 3×3 profile grid effect, split a square image into 9 tiles and post them in reverse order (9, 8, 7... 1). Resize your image to Instagram dimensions first with the Social Media Resizer or crop it with the Image Cropper.
Sprite sheets and game assets
Sprite sheets pack multiple frames into a single image. The splitter can extract individual frames by setting the exact grid that matches the sprite layout. Use PNG output to preserve transparency. For game development, each tile becomes a separate animation frame or UI element. To compress the resulting tiles, use the Image Compressor. To convert formats, try the Format Converter.
Download options
Download individual tiles by hovering and clicking the download button, or use "Download All" to get every tile at once. Tiles are numbered sequentially (01, 02, 03...) in reading order — left to right, top to bottom. Output format is JPEG (with adjustable quality) or PNG (lossless). Tile dimensions are calculated automatically from the original image size divided by the grid. Explore all 88 image tools.
Splitting images into tiles is a surprisingly common task beyond social media grids. Print shops split oversized artwork into sections that fit standard paper sizes — split a poster into A4 tiles, print each one, and reassemble on a board. Web developers split large hero banners into lazy-loaded sections so above-the-fold content renders instantly while the rest loads progressively. Educators break infographics into slide-sized segments for presentations. In all cases, the key is maintaining original resolution per tile, which this tool guarantees by rendering each piece to its own Canvas at full pixel density.
For the best results, prepare your image before splitting. Use the Image Resizer to set exact dimensions divisible by your grid — a 3000×3000 image splits evenly into a 3×3 grid of 1000×1000 tiles with no rounding artifacts. If your image needs annotation or labels before splitting, add them with the Image Annotator first. For watermarking each tile after splitting, use the Image Watermark tool.
To check whether your source image has enough resolution for the intended output, run it through the Quality Analyzer before splitting — a low-quality source will produce blurry tiles regardless of the grid size. If you need to combine tiles back into a single image or create a layout from separate photos, the Image to PDF converter can assemble them into a single document.
