Nine apps to create collages on Android

Sometimes a photo is not enough to show everything you want to show, and it is not optimal to publish the 3,000 photos you took during your last trip. The solution is simple: create a collage that summarizes multiple photos into one, easier to share on social networks.

In Android the apps to create collages They have been with us practically since the beginning, although not all apps are equally useful. Here we have compiled the nine best apps to create collages with an Android mobile today.

Google Photos

They say that the best camera is the one you always carry, and the same can be applied to creating collages. If you need to create one quickly and you don’t have any apps installed, you can always create them with Google Photos.

The good news is that you only need to tap on the menu> Collage and choose the photos, and the bad news is that you have absolutely no no option to customize the result. What Google creates is what you get, which is generally a normal grid. If you are looking for something more special, you will have to install a specific application.

LINE Camera

LINE Camera is a camera app, photo editor and collage maker all in one. To have a bit of everything, the truth is that the collages function has quite a few customization options.

You can choose between all kinds of templates with the most unlikely shapes, modify borders and colors, add effects and texts to your collages, as well as stickers, the specialty of the house. All this for free, except for some sticker packages, which must be purchased separately.

PicsArt Photo Editor

PicsArt Photo Editor is another all-in-one editor, although in this case the attempt to monetize is more obvious. Although the app encourages you to checkout, you can use it for free in exchange for seeing advertising here and there. Allows you to create collages of up to ten photos.

Are included many unusual shaped templates -which are also free- and you can configure between different aspect ratios, borders and background color, as well as being able to include texts, stickers and make adjustments to each photo.

Pixlr

Pixlr o matic It is more or less abandoned, but its brother Pixlr – formerly called Pixlr Express – is still quite active. It is a complete photo editor which includes its own collages section ..

As a collage maker, it is pretty easy to use And it includes enough templates that you hardly miss any settings. With Pixlr you can easily modify the borders, including rounded edges, as well as choose a background color for the collage.

Layout from Instagram

Layout from Instagram – officially called “Diseño” in Spanish – is one of those Instagram spin-offs that the company published separately and that they do a specific thing. In the case of this app, that’s collages.

As a collage maker app, it’s pretty straightforward, so you just have to choose the photos and a design. There are hardly any options, being able to only add a small border between each grid.

Unfold

Unfold is an application that specializes in templates to post as stories on Instagram, although the vast majority of those templates are collages that you can customize including your own photos to your liking.

Unfold has the advantage over other “classic” collage apps that it gives you a bit more freedom to create a layout that includes texts, decorations and other elements in addition to, of course, that the result is optimized to publish as a story.

MOLDIV

MOLDIV is another application photo editor, camera and collages all in one. It has advertising and some of the templates are paid, but of the total of 180 available templates a large part are available for free.

Creating a collage with MOLDIV is quite simple, as the process is quite intuitive. It does not have as many customization options as other applications, but it allows you to include stickers and make adjustments to the edges and aspect ratio of the resulting image.

Inframe Editor

Inframe is an application specialized in adapt photos to be able to publish them on Instagram. This was especially relevant when Instagram only allowed to post square photos, but even today some cutouts or very elongated photos do not quite fit in this social network.

With InFrame, you can adapt a single photo to many, in which case a collage is generated. The available designs are quite attractive and the expected design customization options including filters, borders, frames and stickers are included.

InShot Photo Collage

If none of the above has finished convincing you, another option at your disposal is the InShot collage editor, which doubles functions to allow you to add decorative frames to photos, with many designs but not all for free.

As a collage editor, it has a good collection of layouts, with the advantage that some of them you can modify the template manually dragging with your finger, something that not all competing apps allow.
