Questions

How do I post a whole photo on Instagram without cropping?

Choose Fit to a shape and Square 1:1 or Portrait 4:5. The photo stays whole and the frame around it is filled with a blurred copy of the photo or a colour.

What's the difference between the two options?

Fit to a shape adds space on two sides only, to reach the shape you pick. Even border adds the same width all round.

How wide is the border?

Thin, Medium, and Thick are a share of the image's shorter side, so they look alike on images of any size. Exact pixels gives the same width on every image.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Your files are processed on your device. We never upload them.

Which formats work?

JPG, PNG, and WebP keep their format. GIF and BMP come out as PNG, and HEIC and AVIF photos come out as JPG.
