    Free Instagram carousel maker and photo splitter

    The same numbered files can also become carousel slides when you want a swipe-through reveal. Your current 3×3 (9 pieces) setup creates 9 square slides or profile-grid pieces.

    Carousel posting plan

    2. For a carousel, upload piece 01 first and continue in number order.
