On Android, it seems like a smooth transition. In some cases – primarily on iOS – you will need to exit Layout and go back to Instagram. You can then add a geographic location, a caption, hashtags, tags for people, and you can post the image on Instagram, share it on Facebook, post it on Twitter, or post it on Tumblr. The collage will appear as an image you can add a filter to, though whether you do that before or after creating the post depends on your device. Step 11: Save the collage and go to back to make a post. You can also toggle the actual borders on and off, if you want lines between the images or not. If this means mirroring certain elements, go for it. You can adjust the images to display in whatever way you want them to, to create an image that is evocative and gets your point across. Step 10: Adjust the borders of the images to resize them, move them from place to place, mirror them, flip them, or otherwise adjust the whole collage until it works the way you want it to. The more images you have selected, the more different layouts you can pick through. Step 9: Swipe through the layout preview until you find one you like, that works with the images you’re using. That’s fine if you want to add more than nine to a collage, you probably don’t want to be limited to the predefined layouts and would rather do all this using method 2 anyways. You can choose up to a total of nine images. Tap them to add them to the collage preview up above. Step 8: Scroll through your gallery and find images you want to use as part of your collage. It’s a very simple app, and I’ll teach you how to use it as well. It’s also very small, so it won’t take long to download and install. This will redirect you to the app store used by your device so you can download the app. Step 6: Tap to get Layout, if you don’t already have it. It will generally be a small icon hovering above your gallery to the right, and it looks like a rounded square with a sideways T in it. You might need to give Instagram permission to access your photos if you haven’t done so in a while, or ever. On iOS this will be the “library” button, while on Android it will be the “gallery” button. Step 4: Tap to load up your existing photo gallery. It’s one of those minor differences between iOS and Android that don’t really make sense, but hey, what can you do? Step 3: Tap the new post icon, which will either be a photo silhouette or a plus icon in the center of the bottom navigation bar. Either way, it’s always a good idea to make sure you’re on the right account before you go to post anything. Personally, I don’t know for sure if it breaks anything when you try to switch accounts, or if it just saves the collage as a new image. It makes no sense to make a collage and then go to post it, only to find you’re posting with the wrong account. Download it if you have to, and make sure you’re logged in on the account you want to use to post your collage. If you have done so, and added your images to your cloud storage, make sure you download them onto your local device to make your post. It’s fairly typical to want to edit your images on a computer before you then go to post them on Instagram. This means they have to actually be on the device Layout doesn’t seem to be able to access cloud storage, like Google Drive or Dropbox. Step 1: Make sure any images you want to use are accessible on your device. For now, let’s follow the whole process of creating and posting a collage from start to finish. I’ll cover how to get the app through Instagram momentarily.
