• Supported aspect ratios: Anywhere between 1.91:1 and 4:5
• Recommended image size: Width of 1080 pixels, height between 566 and 1350 pixels
(depending on whether the image is landscape or portrait)
• If you want your images to look their best on Instagram, aim to upload an image that is
1080 pixels wide.
• Larger images will be sized down to 1080 pixels, and images less than 320 pixels will be
sized up to 320 pixels wide.
• If your image is between 320 and 1080 pixels wide, Instagram will keep that photo at
its original resolution, “as long as the photo’s aspect ratio is between 1.91:1 and 4:5 (a
height between 566 and 1350 pixels with a width of 1080 pixels).”
• If the aspect ratio of your photo isn’t supported, it will be “cropped to fit a supported
ratio.”
