Social media sizing
Resize Image for Instagram
Common Instagram sizes
- Square post: 1080 x 1080 pixels.
- Story or Reel cover: 1080 x 1920 pixels.
- Landscape post: 1080 x 566 pixels.
- Portrait post: 1080 x 1350 pixels.
Resize without stretching
If your original image has a different shape, resizing alone may not fit every Instagram format perfectly. Keep aspect ratio enabled to avoid distortion. For exact social dimensions, you may need to crop or place the image on a background.
Practical recommendation
Use 1080 x 1080 for square graphics and 1080 x 1920 for vertical stories. Keep important text away from the edges, especially for Reels and Story layouts where interface elements may cover the image.
