Instagram is slowly pushing out third-party design apps by introducing a new photo editing application to users. The new app, called Layout, is an in-house application that will allow users to make photo collages and add other creative effects to photos without going through alternative avenues like the popular Pic Stitch, Diptic and Pic Frame apps.

The application is designed to showcase creativity and speeds up time, as users will no longer have to use alternative methods of combining photos. Layout allows users to edit multiple photos (up to nine) into a single image while providing more visual features so users can customize and upload photos seamlessly. As of now, Layout is only available to iOS users, however, an Android version will be made available in the next few months.

Brands who utilize Instagram for marketing purposes may want to familiarize themselves with the new tools sooner rather than later.
