FAQ

Do you upload my images?

No. Your images are processed locally in your browser, so resizing doesn’t require uploading your files. Quick tip: For best results, start from the original file and resize once instead of re-saving multiple times. Common mistake: Screenshotting and re-uploading—quality drops quickly.

How to resize image for Instagram?

Story/Reels: 1080×1920 (9:16). Feed posts: 1080×1080 (1:1) or 1080×1350 (4:5). Landscape: 1080×566 (1.91:1). Quick tip: If you only remember one size: 1080×1920 for vertical content. Common mistake: Using random dimensions and letting Instagram scale it—uploads often look soft.

Crop vs Pad — which should I choose?

Use Crop to fill the target size (edges may be cut). Use Pad to keep the entire image visible (adds background/space). Quick tip: If your design has text/logos near edges, Pad is usually safer. Common mistake: Cropping posters with edge text—important text gets cut.

Is this an Instagram resize app?

It’s a browser-based Instagram resizer—no download and no upload required. Quick tip: Desktop browsers usually handle very large images faster than mobile. Common mistake: Trying to resize giant files on older phones—browser memory can fail.

Can I batch resize for Instagram?

Yes. Use the Batch Resizer to apply one Instagram size to many images. Quick tip: If you need different crop focus per image, resize them one by one. Common mistake: Uploading dozens of huge files on mobile—memory limits can slow things down.

What does “9.16” mean? Is it the same as 9:16?

Yes. People often type 9.16 or 9 16 when they mean the 9:16 aspect ratio. The common pixel size is 1080×1920. Quick tip: Think: ratio = shape; pixels = resolution. Common mistake: Mixing ratio and pixels—9:16 is not a pixel size by itself.

What is 1080/566? Is it the same as 1.91:1?

Yes—1080×566 is a common 1.91:1 landscape size (often used for wide posts/link previews). Quick tip: If your image gets cropped, try Pad or reposition the crop focus. Common mistake: Resizing landscape content into portrait without changing composition—edges get cut.

Why does Instagram make my image blurry?

Blurriness usually comes from low-resolution sources or heavy compression during export/upload. Quick tip: Export at recommended dimensions and use higher quality (JPG ~90–95). For text-heavy designs, use PNG. Common mistake: Exporting at tiny sizes and hoping Instagram “upscales”—platforms don’t upscale cleanly.

What sizes should I use for Instagram?

Story/Reels: 1080×1920 (9:16). Feed: 1080×1080 (1:1) or 1080×1350 (4:5). Landscape: 1080×566 (1.91:1).

Crop vs Pad — which is safer?

Crop fills the frame (may cut edges). Pad keeps the entire image visible (adds background/space) and is safer for text near edges.
