Frequently asked questions
What is the best resolution for Instagram Stories?
Instagram Stories are 1080 pixels wide by 1920 pixels tall (9:16 aspect ratio). InstaFormat renders directly at 1080x1920 so your photos look sharp on all mobile devices.
What is the Instagram Story safe area?
The safe area is the central portion of the 9:16 story frame. When viewing stories in Instagram, the top 250px contains the profile photo and handle, while the bottom 250px holds the reply field and reactions. Turn on our "Safe zone guide" switch to visualize these boundaries while editing.
Do I need to make an account or pay?
No. InstaFormat is completely free and requires no sign-up or watermark removal fee.
