Facebook Sizes That Matter

For Facebook feed posts, 1200 x 630 px is the standard wide format. Stories use 1080 x 1920 px, while cover photos need a very wide crop that can display differently across devices.

Resize before uploading when the crop matters, especially for covers, ads and link-preview style posts.

Before You Upload

Check the cropWide images can lose edge content in previews. Put key text and faces near the center.
Use enough pixelsSmall files may look blurry on high-density screens.
Reduce file sizeAfter resizing, use Compress Image to 100KB for faster upload.

Quick Export Workflow

Pick the Facebook placement first. A feed image, Story and cover photo use very different shapes, so resizing one image for all placements usually creates poor crops. Export a separate version for each placement when the composition matters.

For covers and feed graphics with text, keep the important message away from the edges. Facebook may show previews differently on mobile and desktop, and centered content survives those changes better. After resizing, compress the final JPG if upload speed or file size is a concern.

Finish the Task Faster

Use the result from this page as the decision point for your next action. If the image has the wrong pixel dimensions, open Resize Image and export the exact width and height you need. If the dimensions are correct but the file is too large, use Compress Image or a fixed target page such as Compress Image to 100KB.

For print, verify the final file with the Image DPI Checker before ordering. For social uploads, use Instagram Image Size, Facebook Image Size or the full Social Media Image Size tool so the crop matches the platform before upload.

Frequently Asked Questions

Use 1200 x 630 px for standard feed images, 1080 x 1920 px for Stories and 851 x 315 px for cover photos.

Facebook displays images in different containers across feed, mobile and desktop. Resizing to the target format gives you better control.
What size should a Facebook cover photo be?
Use 851 x 315 px as a practical desktop cover size, and keep important content near the center because mobile display can crop the sides.
