Why 1080x1080 is the Instagram standard

Instagram displays square feed posts at 1080 by 1080 pixels, and uploading at that exact size means the platform does not have to re-scale your image, which keeps it crisp and avoids the soft, over-compressed look that happens when Instagram resizes an odd-shaped file for you. This tool gives you the two choices that matter. Crop to fill zooms the photo so it covers the whole square with no borders, trimming the overflow evenly from the sides or top and bottom — best for photos where the subject is centred. Fit with padding shrinks the entire image inside the square and fills the leftover space with a colour you choose, so nothing is cut off — best for graphics, logos, or tall and wide shots you want to keep intact. Everything runs on the HTML canvas in your browser, so your files never leave your device, and there is no upload, watermark, or signup.

FAQ

Should I crop to fill or fit with padding for Instagram?

Crop to fill looks cleanest for a normal feed post because it uses the whole square. Fit with padding is better when you must show the entire image, such as a full graphic or a very tall photo, and do not mind coloured borders.

Which format should I choose?

Use JPEG for photos — it is smaller and Instagram-friendly. Choose PNG for graphics with sharp text or when you fit with padding and want a clean, lossless edge.

Will 1080x1080 stay sharp after I upload it?

Yes. Because it already matches Instagram's display size, the platform does not re-scale it, so it stays as sharp as the source allows.

Are my images uploaded?

No. All resizing happens locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to any server.
