FAQ

Instagram story size 1080x1920 9:16 — is this the correct size?
Yes. Instagram Story size is 1080×1920 (9:16). Quick tip: Keep key text and faces centered to avoid UI overlap. Common mistake: Designing edge-to-edge text—top/bottom UI often covers it.
What size is an Instagram Story in pixels?
1080×1920 is the standard Instagram Story size, and it uses a 9:16 ratio. Quick tip: Search by ratio (9:16) if you need alternative sizes like 720×1280. Common mistake: Confusing ratio with pixels—ratio is the shape, pixels are the resolution.
Crop or Pad for Instagram Stories?
Use Crop for full-bleed photos; use Pad to keep all text or logos visible. Quick tip: If your layout has important edges, Pad is safer. Common mistake: Using Crop on posters—edge text gets cut.
