  • •Instagram feed posts strictly crop images that exceed the 4:5 vertical ratio (anything taller than 1080×1350 is cropped to 4:5 in the grid).
  • •Instagram Stories and Reels use full-screen 9:16 vertical orientation (1080×1920).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best aspect ratio for Instagram feed posts?

The 4:5 Portrait ratio (1080 × 1350 px) is optimal because it occupies the maximum vertical screen area on mobile devices without getting cut off.

How does the blurred background mode work?

It scales a frosted, high-radius blurred duplicate of your original image behind your photo so full landscape or vertical pictures fit any Instagram ratio without ugly black borders or awkward cropping.
