Instagram carousels are one of the highest-performing content formats on the platform. They get more saves, more swipes, and more reach than single images. But most creators are exporting them wrong,
Preparing a month of Instagram content means cropping, resizing, and exporting a lot of photos. If you are doing it one image at a time, it takes forever. Here is how to do all 30 in one session, without installing anything.
Why content creators waste hours on photo cropping
Most photo editing tools are built for single images. Even if you can export in bulk, the cropping still happens manually, one photo at a time. For a month of content that means 30 separate crop actions, per format, per platform.
Multiply that across Instagram Square, IG Feed, and Stories and you are looking at 90 individual exports before you have even written a caption.
There is a faster way.
What is batch cropping and why does it matter for Instagram
Batch cropping means applying the same crop settings to multiple images at once. Instead of opening each photo individually, you upload your entire set, choose your Instagram formats, and export everything in one action.
For content creators, photographers, and social media managers who prepare content in advance, batch cropping turns a two-hour job into a five-minute one.
What you need
Just a browser. MintyCrop runs entirely in your browser with no installation required. It supports JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC files, so iPhone photos work directly from your camera roll without converting first.
Free plan users can upload up to 10 photos per batch. Pro users can upload up to 500 photos at once with large batch mode, making it easy to prepare weeks or months of content in a single session.
How to batch crop 30 Instagram photos in minutes
Step 1: Open MintyCrop in your browser at mintycrop.com. No account needed to get started.
Step 2: Select your export formats. Choose from Instagram Square (1080x1080), IG Feed (1080x1350), IG Story (1080x1920), or any combination. MintyCrop generates all selected sizes from every image in one pass, so you only need to do this once.
Step 3: Upload your photos. Drag and drop your images into the upload area. Free users can upload 10 at a time. Pro users can upload up to 500 in one batch.
Step 4: Review your crops. MintyCrop applies automatic center cropping by default. If any image needs a different focal point, click Edit to reposition manually. For most content batches the automatic crop works well without any adjustments.
Step 5: Export. On desktop, click Export ZIP to download all your cropped images in one file, organized and ready to schedule. On mobile, tap Save to Gallery to send all cropped images directly to your camera roll.
That is a full month of cropped, export-ready Instagram content in one session.
Batch cropping Instagram carousels
Carousels need special handling. Most tools export each slide as a separate image, which means the edges never align when someone swipes through. It looks sloppy and breaks the visual flow you planned.
MintyCrop treats carousels as one unified crop. You frame the full image once, choose 2, 3, or 4 slides, and MintyCrop splits it into perfectly aligned tiles. Every swipe lines up exactly as intended.
Enable Instagram Carousel in the format panel before uploading and your carousel tiles will be included in the same export as all your other formats.
Preparing Instagram content on mobile
MintyCrop works fully in the mobile browser on both iPhone and Android. Upload directly from your camera roll, crop, and tap Save to Gallery to save your images back to your phone without any zip files or file management.
This is useful when you want to prepare and post content directly from your phone without ever touching a desktop.
How much time does batch cropping actually save
Cropping 30 photos manually across three Instagram formats takes roughly 90 individual actions. At even one minute per crop that is an hour and a half of repetitive work.
With batch cropping in MintyCrop, the same 30 photos across the same three formats takes one upload and one export. Most users finish in under five minutes including any manual crop adjustments.
For anyone publishing content consistently, that time adds up fast.
