Free social mediaimage size guide.

Every current upload size and aspect ratio for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Facebook, and Pinterest — plus a crop checker that tells you exactly how much of your image each placement will cut. Free, instant, and runs entirely in your browser.

CROP CHECKER

Check your image against every placement

Enter your image's pixel dimensions — or pick a preset. Each card shows the recommended size, the aspect ratio, and how much of your image that placement crops away.

One image, fourteen shapes

A 1920 × 1080 landscape frame loses roughly 68% of its width on the way to a 9:16 Reel, and the crop is centred by default — which is exactly where your subject usually isn't. AnySync reframes each upload per placement, so the subject stays in frame instead of being centre-cropped out of it.

HOW IT WORKS

Check any image in three steps.

>_STEP 01

Enter your dimensions

Type your image's width and height, or start from a common preset. Nothing is uploaded — the check is pure arithmetic in your browser.

>_STEP 02

See the crop per placement

Every card tells you whether the image fits natively, only needs a resize, or loses a share of its width or height to the crop.

>_STEP 03

Re-export or let AnySync reframe

Export at the right ratio, or upload once and let AnySync reframe the shot for each placement automatically.

GO FURTHER

Stop exporting the same asset five times.

This guide tells you what each placement wants. AnySync produces it from one upload.

Reframed, not centre-cropped

AnySync tracks the subject when it reframes, so a 16:9 shot becomes a 9:16 Reel without cutting the subject out of frame.

Every ratio from one file

Upload once; AnySync renders the 4:5, 1:1, 9:16, and 16:9 versions each platform expects.

Crop and publish together

Media adaptation happens inside the publishing flow, so the correctly-sized asset is what actually goes out.

Image size questions

Is this image size guide free?

+

Yes. It's free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser — you enter dimensions, not files, so no image ever leaves your device.

What are the safest sizes to design for in 2026?

+

1080 × 1350 px (4:5) for feed posts and 1080 × 1920 px (9:16) for all vertical video covers the majority of placements. Both are portrait, which fills more of a mobile screen than square.

How is the crop percentage calculated?

+

It compares your image's aspect ratio to the placement's. The wider of the two loses width, the taller loses height, and the figure shown is the share of that dimension trimmed when the image is centre-cropped to fit.

Do these dimensions change?

+

Yes — networks revise their creative specs regularly. These values reflect published 2026 recommendations; confirm against the platform's own specs before a large production run.

Can AnySync resize images for me?

+

Yes. AnySync reframes each upload to every target placement automatically, keeping the subject in frame rather than centre-cropping blindly.
