About the Instagram Story

This tool outputs the exact Instagram Story (9:16) dimensions of 1080×1920 pixels. Cover mode center-crops to fill the frame edge-to-edge; contain mode fits the whole image with padding. Batch up to 10 images — every one comes out at the precise size the platform expects.

How it works

Your image lands on a 1080×1920 canvas (the exact 9:16 story frame) via cover, contain or stretch fitting. Cover fills the screen edge-to-edge with a center crop; contain letterboxes the full image over your chosen background — the safe choice when cropping would decapitate the subject.

How to use it

Drop up to 10 images, choose how each fits the vertical frame, set a pad color for contain mode, and process. Preview every result, then download individually or as a ZIP.

Supported formats & limitations

Accepts .jpg, .png and .webp up to 30MB each, 10 per batch. Remember the platform's UI overlays roughly 250px at top and bottom — keep critical content in the middle band or accept it may sit under the reply box.

Common use cases

Story backgrounds, Reels cover frames, WhatsApp status images, and any 9:16 placement. Content teams batch-convert campaign photography to story dimensions before scheduling.

Frequently asked questions

What size is instagram story?

1080×1920 pixels — this tool outputs exactly that size. Cover mode center-crops your image to fill the frame; contain mode keeps the whole image visible and pads the difference.

What is 1080×1920 in cm or inches?

Social platforms define sizes in pixels only, because physical size depends on the screen. For reference: printed at 300 DPI, 1080×1920 px measures about 9.1×16.3 cm (3.60×6.40 in).

Cover or contain?

Cover fills the frame completely (crops edges); contain shows the full image with padded bars. Use cover for photos, contain for logos or graphics you don't want cropped.

Can I resize several instagram story images at once?

Yes — drop up to 10 files and every one comes out at exactly 1080×1920 px. Results can be downloaded individually or as a single ZIP.
