Resize the image to 4:5 using the button in the Output Size list There is a resizing option for Instagram, 1:1, but this shrinks your image to fit in the default square shape. This allows your photo to take up maximum vertical space in the Instagram feed without getting sized down. In the Output Size section, select the 4:5 option. Once your picture loads into the editor, you’ll be taken into the Kapwing Studio Editor where you'll see a preview of your image in the center of the screen. Kapwing supports images, videos, and GIFs, so you can use it to resize for any kind of media. Upload your image file from camera roll or import it from a URL. Start by opening the Kapwing’s Resizer tool on your phone or computer. In this article, I’ll explain how to fit the whole picture on Instagram in three simple steps: I recommend the Kapwing resizer as it allows you to add white space on either side to bring your image to the required aspect ratio. Otherwise, Instagram will automatically crop your image to a maximum of 4:5. If you want to fit your whole picture on Instagram but it is taller than the 4:5 aspect ratio, you need to modify your image before posting.

Here's what your tall photos will look like on Instagram without added borders. Although it’s nice that Instagram keeps users from publishing massive, obtrusive posts, the 4:5 limit makes it difficult to post a whole vertical picture or video that you shot on your phone. Instagram’s restriction reduces the number of very tall images that take up a lot of vertical space in the feed. Instagram has a maximum aspect ratio of 4:5 on portrait posts (four pixels wide for every five pixels tall). If you have a full portrait (9:16) image or video or a landscape (16:9) image or video, you can fit the whole picture in your Instagram post by following this tutorial. This article shows you how to fit the whole picture on Instagram.
