Frequently Asked Questions
While there's no strict file size limit, we recommend keeping images under 50MB for optimal performance. Very large images may take longer to process.
Currently, our tool splits images into equal grid sections. For custom splitting patterns, you might want to use our crop tool to manually create the sections you need.
The split images maintain the same quality as the original. No compression is applied during the splitting process, so each piece will have the same pixel density and clarity.
