Resize any photo to 1080 × 1920 pixels — the perfect size for Instagram Stories. Upload an image and this free tool sets the exact dimensions Instagram Stories expect, so your picture always looks sharp and is never awkwardly cropped by the platform. Everything happens locally in your browser, which means your images are never uploaded to a server and your work stays completely private. You can adjust the width and height at any time if you need a custom size.

Maximum file size	30 MB
Keep clear of text	14% at the top, 35% at the bottom, 6% down each side

Meta publishes these figures for Stories ads; organic stories use the same 9:16 canvas. 1080 × 1920 is the size everyone quotes and it does work, being 9:16 and far above the 500 px minimum. The last row matters more than the pixel count: your profile name sits over the top of the screen and the reply box over the bottom, so on a 1080 × 1920 canvas keep the top 270 px and the bottom 670 px free of anything you need people to read.
