Does my image actually stay on my device?

Yes. The resize runs in your browser using the Canvas API. We never see, store, or transmit your image. You can verify this in your browser's network tab — only static files load, no upload requests.

What's the catch? Why is this free?

No catch. The whole tool runs in your browser, so there are no servers and no bandwidth costs. We're validating demand first; a paid tier with batch resize and API access may come later.

Can I batch resize multiple images?

Yes — one click exports your photo resized to all 17 marketplace presets as a ZIP. Single-image batch export is built in; multi-image upload is on the roadmap.

Do you support my country's platform?

Yes — imgsize.cc supports Amazon (US, IN), Etsy, Shopify, Walmart, Flipkart, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Facebook, Pinterest, Threads, Mastodon, Twitch, Snapchat, Behance, Substack, Medium, Dribbble, Tumblr, Vimeo, SoundCloud, Discord, WhatsApp and Spotify. If we don't have your platform yet, request it via email.

What image formats can I export?

JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and GIF. PNG is the default for product photos because it preserves transparency and is the format Amazon prefers. JPEG is smaller and great for social posts.

Story / Reel Size: 1080×1920 (2026 Spec)

Instagram Story / Reel cover image size: the 2026 spec

Getting Instagram Story / Reel cover image dimensions right matters for both reach and visual quality. This guide covers the official 1080×1920 pixel specification, format requirements, and common pitfalls when preparing images for Instagram Story / Reel cover.

Why 1080×1920 pixels

The 1080×1920 standard is Instagram Story / Reel cover's recommended upload dimension. Files smaller than this are auto-upscaled and render blurry on high-DPI screens; files larger are downscaled by Instagram Story / Reel cover's CDN. The aspect ratio is 9:16.

Specification breakdown

Size: 1080×1920 px (9:16)
Format: JPEG, PNG
Max file size: 30 MB
Duration: Story 15s, Reel up to 90s

The "safe area" inside the frame

Crop the central content of your image to the central 80% of the frame, with extra care around bottom 30% for caption overlays. Instagram Story / Reel cover may crop or overlay UI elements near the edges, so critical content should stay well within the safe zone.

Common mistakes

Critical content at bottom 400 pixels — covered by caption overlay
Horizontal source — letterboxed

Frequently asked questions

Story vs Reel cover? Stories use images or short video, Reels use vertical video. Cover specs are identical.
