What is Split in 9?
Split in 9 turns one source image into equal, numbered files without sending the image to a server. Use it when the destination needs a predictable grid rather than a platform-specific crop.
How it works
Make a 3×3 reading-order grid
- 1
Start with a square if you can
A square source keeps every tile even. Non-square images are sliced as-is, with no crop.
- 2
Split into 3×3
The overlay shows every seam before you export. There is no custom grid on this page.
- 3
Download nine files
File 1 is top-left. For an Instagram profile puzzle, switch to Grid Maker rather than posting 9 first from this ZIP.

Why ImageSplit
A simple tool for a specific job
Private by design
The file is read and processed in the browser. There is no image upload queue or conversion account.
Exact grid control
Start with a standard layout, then choose a custom grid from 1×1 through 10×10 when the project needs it.
Clear file order
Tiles are numbered left to right and top to bottom so the next step stays organized.

Tips before you download
Protect the focal point
Keep faces, logos, and headlines away from a seam whenever the artwork needs to read as one image.
Start with enough resolution
A larger grid makes each individual tile smaller. Use a high-resolution original for dense layouts.
Choose the right dedicated tool
Use Grid Maker for Instagram upload order and Split to PDF for paper size, overlap, and assembly marks.

Frequently asked questions
What order are the files?
Reading order: top-left is file 1, bottom-right is file 9. That is the opposite of Instagram’s newest-first profile. If you will post a profile puzzle, export from Grid Maker instead of reversing these files by hand.
What source size should I use?
A 3240×3240 square gives nine 1080 tiles. Smaller files still split, but each piece will look softer.
Grid Maker or this page?
This page is a straight 3×3 cut with no crop. Grid Maker adds a square crop, a 3-column profile preview, and upload numbering. The 3×3 planner is the same Instagram numbering locked to nine posts.
Are photos uploaded to a server?
No. ImageSplit reads the file in your browser, runs the work in a local worker, and downloads the result from memory. There is no upload API for your images.
