Problem? (1/2)

Making carousals for an Instagram requires you to create multiple images using online platforms like canva or any other graphic editing tools.

❌ Requires you to calculate measurements for image

Problem? (2/2)

❌ No way to preview the content before uploading to Instagram
❌ Need to use additional tools like image splitter

⭐️ ~20% of Instagram posts are carousels
⭐️ Carousels are the most engaging Instagram posts with 1.92% average engagement, more than videos
