Written by the makers of Glassy. SCRL is a good app; this page explains the differences so you can choose.

When SCRL is still the right choice

  • You also work on Android: SCRL's website offers it on Google Play.
  • You want SCRL's curated carousel, collage and story templates.
  • You post directly from the app to Instagram or TikTok, which SCRL's listing mentions.

When an alternative fits better

  • You want text, stickers and cutouts, not just photos, to flow across the seams: Glassy treats the carousel as one canvas of layers.
  • You want the song, the run or the weather in the picture: Glassy's real data cards fill from Apple Music, Apple Health and weather services.
  • You want a moving version of the carousel: Glassy exports a scrolling video of the whole canvas.
  • You mostly make scrapbook posts with community templates: try 17V28.
