Resize Image to 1080×1080 (Instagram Square)

1080×1080 is the pixel size Instagram uses for a square feed post, and it's also the sweet spot for Facebook and LinkedIn square creatives — upload anything larger and the platform re-compresses it, upload something smaller and it looks soft. This tool crops and scales your photo to exactly 1080×1080 so what you see is what gets posted, with no surprise re-crop. Everything runs on your device, so your photo is never uploaded to a third-party resizer.

Good to know

Outputs exactly 1080 × 1080 pixels — the native size of an Instagram square post.

"Cover" fit fills the whole square and trims the overflow, so there are no letterbox bars.

No size cap on this preset, so the export keeps full quality for a crisp feed image.

Great for square profile banners, album covers and any 1:1 social creative, not just Instagram.

Processed entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded and no account is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is 1080×1080 the best size for an Instagram post? ▼

1080 pixels is the maximum width Instagram stores for feed images, and a 1:1 (square) ratio is the safest crop that looks good on every device. Supplying the image at exactly 1080×1080 means Instagram doesn't have to up- or down-scale it, which keeps it sharp.

Will my photo get stretched to fit the square? ▼

No. The tool uses a "cover" crop: it scales your photo to fill the 1080×1080 box and trims whatever hangs over the edges, so the picture keeps its natural proportions and is never squashed.

Can I use this for other platforms? ▼

Yes — 1080×1080 works for Facebook and LinkedIn square posts too, and for album art or avatars that want a 1:1 image. For other exact sizes, use the main Resize tool where you can type any width and height.

Are my images uploaded to a server? ▼

No. The resize runs on a canvas in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device and we never see it.
