See it before you post
The preview shows your photo inside a mock of Instagram Stories and Reels for story, profile grid, including the areas that get covered or cropped, so you can fix the framing before you upload.
Tip
Landscape photo? Choose Whole photo to keep the full picture centred on a blurred copy of itself, then check the Story preview for covered areas.
Resize a whole batch
Drop many photos at once. Each one keeps its own crop position, and you can download them all as a ZIP. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
What size is an Instagram Story?
1080 by 1920 pixels, a 9:16 vertical ratio.
Why does my story look blurry?
Small images get stretched. Start from a photo at least 1080 pixels wide, or upscale it first with the Image Upscaler.
Is the Reels cover the same size?
Yes, 1080 by 1920, but the grid shows a 3:4 crop from the centre.
Can I resize many images at once?
Yes. Drop as many images as you like, they are processed in a batch on your device, and you can download them one by one or all together as a ZIP.
