Recommended image size for feed posts and carousels:

Take up maximum real estate in the newsfeed with images, graphics or carousels sized to portrait 1080 x 1350 pixels. Keep the main focus in the central square to ensure your profile grid looks good.

Instagram Reels sizes:

  • Full screen 1080 x 1920 pixels (Aspect ratio 9:16.)
  • Cover photo: 1080 x 1920 pixels
  • Reels are cropped to a 1:1 image in your profile feed, so keep the main focus in the central square to ensure your profile grid looks good.
  • Reels are cropped to 4:5 in the newsfeed, so ensure the main focus of the video, including any added text, is in that area using Instagram's video builder guide lines.
