Why this size

Facebook sizes at a glance

1200 x 630 is also the size for link previews on most sites. Uploading the exact size means Facebook does not crop or re-compress your image in ways you did not choose.

The tool scales once, straight to 1200 x 630, from your original pixels, so the result stays sharp. Start from a photo at least as large as 1200 x 630: enlarging a small image cannot add detail. For a small old photo, the AI upscaler can redraw it larger first.

Landscape post or link	1200 x 630 px (1.91:1)
Square post	1080 x 1080 px
Portrait post	1080 x 1350 px

Tips

Tips that make a difference

Start from the original photo

Use the photo from your camera or gallery, not a screenshot or a copy forwarded in a chat. Scaling down to 1200 x 630 keeps it sharp; scaling up a small image makes it soft.

Uploads get compressed again

Most platforms, Facebook included, re-compress images after upload. A JPG at the exact size gives them the least to change, so colors and edges stay closer to your original.

Avoid
