Guide
Why sizes matter
Uploading at the wrong size leads to blurry images, cut-off text and awkward crops. Designing at the recommended dimensions keeps your brand looking sharp everywhere.
The three sizes you'll use most
- 1080 × 1350 (4:5) — portrait feed posts on Instagram and Facebook
- 1080 × 1440 (3:4) — matches Instagram's current profile grid
- 1080 × 1920 (9:16) — Reels, Stories, Shorts and WhatsApp Status
