What size is an Instagram post?

An Instagram square post is 1080 by 1080 pixels, a 1:1 ratio. Instagram displays it at roughly 510 pixels wide in feed, so 1080 gives you a sharp image on every phone without an oversized upload.

Composition

Nothing is cropped

Nothing is cropped. The whole 1080 × 1080 frame is visible wherever this format appears, so the composition can run right to the edges.

Keep the headline out of the last 120 pixels so a grid crop never clips it.
