Questions
What size is an Instagram post?
Instagram keeps photos 1080 pixels wide at any height from 566 to 1440 (ratios from 1.91:1 to 3:4). That covers landscape at 1080 by 566, square at 1080 by 1080, portrait at 1080 by 1350 and tall portrait at 1080 by 1440. Other ratios are cropped to fit.
What size is an Instagram Reel?
A Reel can have any aspect ratio from 1.91:1 to 9:16, with at least 720 pixels and 30 frames per second. The recommended cover is 420 by 654 pixels.
Why isn't Stories or the profile photo listed?
We only list sizes that Instagram's own help pages state, and each page names its source and the day we checked it. Those two don't state a size we could find.
Is it free?
Yes, and it runs in your browser.
