About this tool
A square 1080 x 1080 picture is a common size for Instagram posts. This tool starts with that size. If you want a taller post, change the height, for example to 1350.
How to use it
- Choose your photo.
- Keep 1080 x 1080, or change the height for a portrait post.
- Pick Fill the frame, or Fit inside to avoid cutting the photo.
- Press Resize Image and download.
Choosing a size for Instagram
Square posts of 1080 by 1080 pixels are the classic choice. A portrait post of 1080 by 1350 shows more of the screen in the feed, which can help a photo stand out. Platforms change their layouts from time to time, so treat these as common sizes rather than strict rules.
If you do not want any part of your photo cut off, choose Fit inside. For a clean look, the white borders it adds work like a simple frame around the picture.
Common questions

Will quality drop?
Not noticeably at 1080 pixels, because the output is saved at high quality.
