Free Instagram Grid Preview
Your photos never leave your device. Everything — the preview and the reference image — happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is ever uploaded to a server.
1. Upload up to 9 photos
Drag & drop photos here
or click to browse
How to reorder:
- Desktop: drag one photo onto another to swap their positions.
- Touch/mobile: tap a photo to select it, then tap a second photo to swap them.
- Position 1 (top-left) is your feed's newest post — see the FAQ below on posting order.
2. Phone-frame preview

Plan your Instagram feed before you post a single photo
An Instagram profile is judged as a whole grid, not one photo at a time — a mismatched color, a busy pattern next to a busy pattern, or a portrait photo breaking up a run of square shots can throw the whole feed off. This free tool lets you upload up to 9 photos and arrange them exactly the way they'll appear on your profile, inside a phone-frame mockup that mimics Instagram's real 3-column grid, before you post anything.
Reordering works two ways: on a laptop or desktop, drag one photo onto another to swap their positions; on a phone or tablet, tap a photo to select it (it gets a highlighted border), then tap a second photo to swap the two — no drag gesture required, which matters since touch browsers often handle native HTML5 drag-and-drop inconsistently. Both methods update the same live preview instantly.
Remember: Instagram shows your newest post first
This is the detail that trips people up most: Instagram always displays your most recently published post in the top-left corner of your grid. So if you arrange 9 photos here with your favorite shot in position 1 (top-left), you need to actually publish that photo last — post starting from position 9 (bottom-right) and work backward to position 1. Getting the posting order backward is the single most common mistake people make when planning a grid, so this tool's numbered reference image spells out grid position clearly, and the FAQ below repeats the posting-order rule so it's easy to double check before you start publishing.
Download a numbered reference image, or just plan and go
Once your arrangement looks right, download a single reference image with each photo numbered by grid position — handy to keep open on a second screen, send to a team member, or save for later. Everything here — reading your photos and building that reference image — happens entirely in your browser; nothing is ever uploaded anywhere.
