Short description

Gridstory plans your Instagram grid by colour. Pick a style, fill each spot with a photo that matches, and schedule your posts.

Long description

Gridstory is a feed planner for photographers who want their Instagram profile to read as one set. Instead of starting with a pile of photos, you start with a grid style, such as Diagonals, Checkerboard, Rows, Columns or Colour Story, and each spot in the grid asks for a colour or tone: golden, green, blue, pink, light or dark. Puzzle and Big Picture spread one photo across several tiles.

You fill the spots from your photo library, or straight from Filters, the companion app that finds photos by colour. When the grid grows, pull down to add the next row and the pattern carries on. Each post can be a carousel of up to 10 photos, with a look and a strength slider, a caption and hashtag ideas worked out on the device. Dates go on a calendar, and posts can be published or scheduled to Instagram.

Photos are analysed on the device, and nothing leaves it until a post is published. There are no ads, analytics or tracking. Gridstory runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and is built for iPhone Duo, folded and open. It is part of the My Photos Apps family alongside Filters, Photo Tape, MergeHDR, CameraGrid, GeoMend, Copyrighted and RawToHEIC.
