Why this size
Instagram sizes at a glance
4:5 portrait posts take up the most space in the feed. Uploading the exact size means Instagram does not crop or re-compress your image in ways you did not choose.
The tool scales once, straight to 1080 x 1350, from your original pixels, so the result stays sharp. Start from a photo at least as large as 1080 x 1350: enlarging a small image cannot add detail. For a small old photo, the AI upscaler can redraw it larger first.
| Use | Size |

| Portrait post | 1080 x 1350 px (4:5) |
| Square post | 1080 x 1080 px (1:1) |
| Profile grid preview | 3:4 crop of the post |
