Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best image size for Instagram posts?expand_more

The optimal size for Instagram feed posts is 1080×1080 pixels (square). Instagram supports up to 1080 pixels wide, and square images get the most screen real estate in the feed. For stories, use 1080×1920.

Will Instagram compress my resized image?expand_more

Instagram applies compression to all uploads, but starting with a 1080px image minimizes quality loss. Images larger than 1080px are downscaled, which can introduce artifacts. Uploading at exactly 1080×1080 gives you the best results.

Can I resize for Instagram Stories here?expand_more

This tool presets 1080×1080 for feed posts. For Stories (1080×1920), you can use our main resize tool and enter custom dimensions, or check our other resize options for different aspect ratios.
