# Video collage templates on iPhone

A template does the design work for you: the layout, the motion and the timing are set, and you only drop in your clips. Video Grid Collage opens on a start screen full of them — here's what each kind does and how to make one your own.

**Short answer:** Video Grid Collage has ready-made templates on its start screen: 24 animated templates that slide, fade, zoom or pop your clips in, 20 puzzle templates that put one video together from pieces, 18 gradient layouts, 3 blend templates that mix clips with blend modes, 12 picture-in-picture layouts and 100 grid layouts. Pick one, add your clips and export — the first project is free.

## The kinds of templates

|  | What it does | Formats |
|---|---|---|
| Animated (24) | Each frame's clip slides, fades, zooms or pops in, one frame after another, and out again at the end | 9:16 and 16:9 |
| Puzzle (20) | One video or photo is split across all frames, and the pieces fly in to form the whole picture | 9:16 and 16:9 |
| Gradient (18) | Two clips blend into each other with a soft fade instead of a hard line | 9:16, 16:9 and 1:1 |
| Blend (3) | Clips are stacked full-frame and mixed with blend modes such as Screen, Multiply or Overlay | 9:16, 16:9 and 1:1 |
| Picture in Picture (12) | A full-frame video with a smaller window in one corner | 9:16, 16:9 and 1:1 |
| Layouts (100) | Side by side, stacked, grids and mixed arrangements of up to 9 frames | Portrait, landscape and square — any of 9 aspect ratios |

**You'll need:** an iPhone (iOS 18+) · the free [Video Grid Collage](https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6743649992?pt=123926799&ct=en-templates&mt=8) app · ~5 minutes

## Step by step

### 1. Pick a template

Open [Video Grid Collage](https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6743649992?pt=123926799&ct=en-templates&mt=8) (free on the App Store). On the start screen, choose a template in **Animated**, **Puzzle**, **Gradient**, **Blend** or **Picture in Picture** — or a layout in **Portrait**, **Landscape** or **Square**.

### 2. Add your clips

Pick one clip for each frame. A puzzle template needs just one video or photo — it's cut into the pieces for you. A blend template takes two clips and puts the second on top of the first.

### 3. Make it yours

Select any frame and tap **Animation** to change its **In** and **Out** styles, **Duration** and **Timing**. Switch the arrangement under **Grid → Layout** or the shape under **Aspect**.

### 4. Add text and music

Tap **Text** for a title — it can be animated too — and **Insert → Audio** for a song.

### 5. Export

Export in up to 4K. Animated and puzzle templates are set to 60 fps for smooth motion.

## Tips for templates

- Animated templates look best with short clips that start moving right away.
- Puzzle templates work with almost anything — a landscape, a portrait, a product shot.
- Each frame of an animated template can play several clips in a row: tap the + at the end of its row on the timeline.
- Gradient layouts suit before-and-after videos and two angles of the same scene.
- Blend templates make double exposures: a portrait on the bottom, a landscape on top in **Screen**.
