10 Instagram Reel Sizes You Should Know in 2025

Instagram quietly tweaks its image dimensions every few months. If your covers look fuzzy or your captions are getting cropped, the sizes are usually the culprit. Here are the ten dimensions worth memorising.

Feed posts

Square 1080×1080, portrait 1080×1350, landscape 1080×566.

Reels

Render 1080×1920. The safe zone (no UI overlap) is the centre 1080×1350 box.

Stories

1080×1920 with a 250px top and bottom buffer for navigation.

Profile picture

Upload at 320×320 — anything smaller will look soft.

Highlight covers

1080×1920, but only the centre 600×600 circle is visible.
