Instagram Post Maker

The Instagram square

The classic Instagram feed post is a 1080×1080 square (1:1). It's the most reliable format because it shows fully in the grid and the feed without being cropped. Quote cards, announcements, tips, and promos all work beautifully as a clean square with a strong headline.

This maker sizes the canvas to 1080×1080 and previews it square, so your text and background land exactly where you place them. Want a vertical story instead? Switch the platform to Instagram story for the 1080×1920 size.

How to make an Instagram post

1. It opens at 1080×1080. The square Instagram post size is preset and previewed 1:1.
2. Add your text. Type a headline and a supporting line. Centre it for a classic quote-card look.
3. Choose a background. Use a vivid gradient, a solid brand colour, or upload your own photo with an overlay.
4. Download. Export as PNG or JPG at 1080×1080 and post it to your feed.

Square for feed, tall for stories

Use the 1080×1080 square for grid and feed posts. For full-screen stories and reels covers, switch to the Instagram story size (1080×1920) so nothing is cropped.
