Instagram’s new photo collage ‘Layout’ app coming soon to Android

Layouts-Instagram-01

Instagram today released a new app called Layout that lets users easily stitch together multiple photos by automatically generating layouts to make a collage of sorts. The company said the app is coming soon to Android. 

When you open Layout, we automatically show you previews of custom layouts as you choose photos from your camera roll. To make it easier to find the photos you want, we’ve also added a Faces option that shows you all the photos in your camera roll that feature people.

While the app will suggest custom layouts for your photo collage, you can also customize the photos with editing controls for layout, sizing, flipping, and rotation.

Instagram also highlighted a feature of the app called ‘photo booth’ that will countdown and snap multiple photos that are then automatically stitched together into a collage.
