Instagram Story image size guide
The recommended instagram story size is 1080×1920 pixels, an aspect ratio of 9:16. At 300 DPI that is roughly 91 × 163 mm when printed. Uploading at the exact size keeps text crisp, avoids the platform's own lossy re-compression and prevents awkward automatic cropping of faces or logos.
This page applies that preset automatically the moment you drop an image in. Your original aspect ratio is preserved, so nothing important is cut off — the tool letterboxes with a background colour you choose instead. Open the manual adjustments to change the background colour or output format between JPG, PNG and WebP, or lower the quality to hit a smaller file size.
