How do you split pictures side by side?

Answered by Willie Powers

To split pictures side by side, you can use various photo editing apps or software available on Android devices. One popular option is to use the Google Photos app, which offers a simple and user-friendly interface for editing and creating collages. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to split pictures side by side using Google Photos:

1. Open the Google Photos app on your Android device. If you don’t have it installed, you can download it from the Google Play Store.

2. Once you’re in the app, navigate to the album or folder where the pictures you want to split are located.

3. Tap on the first picture that you want to include in the side-by-side split.

4. In the photo view, tap on the three-dot menu icon located at the top right corner of the screen.

5. From the menu that appears, select the “Edit” option. This will open the Google Photos editor.

6. In the editor, you will see various editing options at the bottom of the screen. Swipe left until you find the “Collage” option and tap on it.

7. The Google Photos editor will now show you different collage layouts. Look for a layout that has two equally-sized slots for pictures side by side. This layout may vary depending on the version of the app you have.

8. Once you’ve found the desired layout, tap on it to select it. This will automatically split the picture you selected earlier into one of the slots.

9. To add the second picture, tap on the empty slot in the collage. This will bring up a menu with different options for adding photos. You can choose to select a photo from your gallery, take a new photo, or search for a specific image.

10. Select the second picture you want to include in the side-by-side split. This photo will now be added to the collage, appearing side by side with the first picture.

11. If desired, you can further customize the collage by adjusting the size, position, and orientation of each picture. You can also add filters, text, or other elements to enhance the overall appearance of the collage.

12. Once you’re satisfied with the side-by-side split, tap on the “Save” or “Done” button to save the collage to your Google Photos library.

By following these steps, you can easily split pictures side by side using the Google Photos app on your Android device. This method provides a convenient way to create collages and showcase multiple images in a single frame.
