Social Media Size Cheat Sheet

Post, story, video, profile and banner sizes for every major platform — with blank templates and one-click resizing of your own image.

Optional — add an image, then use “Fit my image” on any size to crop and export it.

Sizes are the widely recommended upload specs. Platforms change them from time to time, so check each platform's help pages before a big campaign.

Social Image Guide

Get crisp, uncropped images on every platform.

Design at 1080 px Wide

1080 × 1350 · 1080 × 1920

Most feeds display images at 1080 pixels wide or less. Larger uploads are scaled down; smaller ones look soft.

Portrait Wins the Feed

4:5

A 4:5 portrait image takes up more of the phone screen than a square or landscape one, so it gets noticed more.

Story Safe Zones

≈250 px top & bottom

Usernames, captions and reply bars cover the top and bottom of stories and reels. The templates mark the area to keep clear.

Profile Pictures Are Round

keep it centred

Most platforms crop profile images to a circle. Keep logos and faces inside the middle 80%.

Banners Crop Differently

safe area in the middle

Covers and banners are cropped differently on desktop, mobile and TV. Keep text and logos in the centre safe area.

Export Settings

JPG for photos · PNG for text

Use high-quality JPG for photos and PNG for graphics with text or logos, which stay sharper after the platform re-compresses them.
