Every Insta-Editor template in one gallery
This page collects all 70 of our templates in one place: 39 feed posts (including carousel cover, inner and last slides) and 31 stories, plus 16 highlight cover styles that open the highlight cover maker. Filter the gallery by format or browse by topic, open any design in the editor, and turn it into your own with your text, photos, colors and fonts. It is the quickest way to give a profile a consistent look across all formats.
The templates are original and free to use, for personal accounts and for business. They are edited and exported in your browser as PNG or JPG files, so you do not need any design software.

Build a simple brand look from templates
Professional-looking accounts usually stick to a small set of choices. You can create that from the gallery in a few minutes:
- Pick one palette and use it on every template you edit.
- Pick one font pairing, one font for headlines and one for small text.
- Choose three or four template types you will use regularly, for example a quote, a tips carousel cover, a story announcement and a product post.
- Make matching highlight covers in the same colors so the profile header fits the posts.
Separate pages explain each format in more detail: post templates, story templates and highlight covers.
Template gallery questions
Are these presets for Lightroom?
No. These are layout templates with text and photo slots. For color presets you apply to photos, use the filters in the photo editor.
Can I upload my own fonts?
No. The templates use 16 open-license display fonts, combined in 14 font pairings. Uploading custom font files is not supported.
Will other people have the same template?
They may start from the same design, but with your photos, text, palette and fonts the result looks different. Changing at least the palette helps your posts stand apart.
Can I edit templates on my phone?
Yes. The gallery and the editor work in mobile browsers. Tap a text slot to type, tap a photo slot to pick a picture from your gallery, and save the result straight to your phone.
Do I need to credit Insta-Editor?
No credit is required. You can post the designs as your own work.
More design tools
Not every post needs a template. When you simply want several photos in one image, the collage maker is faster, and the Instagram design page gives an overview of all the design tools and when to use which one.
