Instagram Image Resizer

Crop or fit any photo to the exact Instagram size — 4:5, 3:4, 1:1, 1.91:1 or 9:16 — and download a sharp 1080 px JPG. It all happens in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

What this tool does

Pick a photo, choose the Instagram format and either crop it to fill the frame or fit the whole picture with a white or black border. Drag to reposition, zoom in if you like, then download a JPG at exactly the pixel size Instagram uses, so it isn't cropped or blurred when you post.

How to resize a photo for Instagram

01
Choose a photo

Pick a JPG or PNG from your phone or computer — it opens right here, it is not uploaded.

02
Pick the format

4:5 for the feed, 3:4 for the profile grid, 9:16 for Stories and Reels. Crop to fill, or fit with a border.

03
Download the JPG

Drag and zoom until it looks right, then save the 1080 px image and post it.

Which Instagram format to choose

Portrait 4:5 · 1080 × 1350

Best for the feed — fills the most screen space.

Tall 3:4 · 1080 × 1440

Matches the profile grid preview exactly.

Square 1:1 · 1080 × 1080

Classic look; shows smaller than portrait in the feed.

Landscape 1.91:1 · 1080 × 566

For wide shots; takes the least space in the feed.

Story / Reel 9:16 · 1080 × 1920

Full-screen; keep text away from the top and bottom.

Private by design

Your photo is processed by your own browser with the canvas API. It is never sent to Clipimo or anyone else, and nothing is stored — close the tab and it's gone.

What it doesn't do

It doesn't add filters, remove backgrounds or post for you. Very large or unusual files (such as HEIC on some browsers) may not open — convert them to JPG first.

Tips for sharp results

Start from the largest version of the photo you have: the tool can crop and shrink without losing quality, but enlarging a small image always makes it softer. Instagram shows everything at 1080 px wide, so the download is exactly that. For Stories, leave the top and bottom 250 px free of important text. Need the exact sizes for every format? See the Instagram post size guide.

Questions

Is the Instagram resizer free?

Yes — free, with no sign-up and no watermark.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser; the photo never leaves your device.

What size should an Instagram photo be?

1080 × 1350 px (4:5) for most feed posts; 1080 × 1920 px (9:16) for Stories and Reels.

Can I post a whole photo without cropping?

Yes — choose “Fit with border” to keep the whole picture and add a white or black edge.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes, in Safari, Chrome and other modern browsers. If an iPhone HEIC photo won't open, share it as JPG first.
