How to read these sizes
Each row gives the size a platform recommends, in pixels, and its aspect ratio. Where a platform only gives a ratio or a range, the table shows the most common size at that ratio and says so in the notes. Platforms often accept other sizes too and crop or pad them, so the ratio matters more than the exact pixels.
Some numbers come from a platform’s ad specs because that is the only place it publishes them. Those rows say so. Safe zones for vertical video change with captions and app updates, so treat them as a guide.
Use the social image resizer to crop a photo to any of these sizes in your browser.
