The shortcut will now ask you how you want the pictures to be arranged – horizontally, vertically, or in a grid.

After setting the image spacing, tap on Done. If you don’t want the collage to have any white space between pictures, set this to “0”.

We suggest setting this space to “10”, but you can set it to your desired value of your own. Next, enter the spacing you wish to have between the images, i.e., a gap between individual pictures in the collage. Select either Chronological or Reverse Chronological. The shortcut will prompt you with a dialog asking in which order do you want to arrange these pictures. Once your preferred photos are selected tap on Add at the top right corner. From here, select the pictures you want to make a collage from either the Photos tab or Album tab. IOS will now open your iPhone library, showing you all the pictures you’ve captured or saved on your device. To create a collage with this shortcut, select the Combine Images shortcut. When this shortcut is added to your device, it should appear inside the My Shortcuts tab inside the Shortcuts app. When you access this shortcut link on your iPhone, tap on the Add Shortcut button. This isn’t a sensible way to create collages as selecting a large number of pictures will only create a thin row of pictures that can be inconvenient to view.įor better personalization, we’ll be using a community-made Combine Images shortcut that you can add to your iPhone. While there is a pre-existing Photo Grid shortcut inside the app’s Gallery section, it comes with a major flaw that only combines pictures horizontally, so your pictures are stacked side-by-side. One such thing you can do with Shortcuts is make a collage in a pattern that you want to create. Apple’s native Shortcuts app can be used to perform actions that aren’t built-in to an iPhone as well as automate tasks to get things done.
