Social media image sizes 2026

Every dimension that matters, for every major platform — posts, stories, profile photos, covers, and video specs. Bookmark it and stop guessing.

Instagram image sizes

FormatSize (px)RatioNotes
Feed — portrait1080 × 13504:5The default to design for — takes the most screen space in feed.
Feed — square1080 × 10801:1Classic, still fully supported.
Story / Reel1080 × 19209:16Keep text inside the central safe zone — UI overlays eat the edges.
Profile photo320 × 320 upload1:1Displays small (~110 px) and circular — keep it simple.

Grid change worth knowing: since early 2025 the profile grid previews posts in 3:4 instead of squares. Keep faces and key text within the middle 3:4 of your 4:5 images so nothing important gets cropped on your profile. Building a puzzle feed? The Instagram grid maker shows that crop live.
