Just tried this new split tool. The reveal effect is absolutely crazy! 馃く #SplitX
My timeline is nothing but these sliding grids today and I love it. Cleanest trend in years.
Finally a tool that doesn't compress my art. 4k splits looking crisp. 馃帹
Pov: You found the infinite engagement glitch on X. 馃搲馃搱
Testing the vertical split feature. This feels illegal to look at. 馃憖

Tap the Post X FAQ
Practical answers for creators using the Tap the Post format.
Creators split one image into four tiles, so the timeline preview looks incomplete and people tap to view the full composition.
That extra tap and dwell time can increase engagement signals and help distribution.
Use a high-resolution source image with a clear focal point near the center so each tile still carries visual meaning.
- Recommended: Landscape images with strong contrast and minimal clutter.
- Avoid: Dense images where key details are cut off between tiles.
Upload in this exact order to preserve the timeline preview layout:
- Top-Left
- Top-Right
- Bottom-Left
- Bottom-Right
If your order is wrong, the preview looks broken and the effect is lost.
Yes. SplitX handles slicing and alignment, so you do not need manual crop coordinates or design software.
