A lot of Instagram users are sharing images and videos without using the correct sizes for stories, which means that their content may appear stretched or zoomed in\/out on.<\/p>\n

This doesn’t look great for the profile or their brand reputation.<\/p>\n

This post will answer key questions around Instagram Stories, such as:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What is the standard photo and video size for Instagram stories?<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. How do you upload an image with a suitable size on an Instagram story?<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. What if the image or video still doesn’t fit?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How do you post Instagram stories?<\/h2>\n

    It’s quite a simple process – there’s 2 ways you can post an Instagram story<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    1. Using the app to take images or videos<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Swipe right from your Instagram feed or click on your profile image in the top left of your feed. You can take an image or video directly from this section.<\/p>\n

    If you do it this way then Instagram will automatically correct the size, meaning you do not need to worry too much about sizing your Instagram story perfectly.<\/p>\n

    You can upload directly to Instagram from the PC<\/a> too.<\/p>\n

    2. Upload saved photos or videos from the camera roll<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    You are able to choose images or videos which were engaged with in the previous 24 hours from your gallery and upload them as your Instagram story.<\/p>\n

    Instagram displays the story depending on how the original image or video was taken; vertical, horizontal or zoomed in \/ out.<\/p>\n

    If it\u2019s not the right size, it may get cropped by Instagram or zoomed.<\/p>\n

    To avoid this issue, you should make sure that it was shot in the correct format.<\/p>\n

    Instagram story sizes<\/h2>\n

    It’s really important to get the correct size and dimensions for your Instagram story – the ideal size for Instagram stories is 1080 pixels width and 1920 pixels height.<\/p>\n

    \"1080-<\/p>\n

    The aspect ratio for this is 9:16.<\/p>\n

    Instagram will crop, zoom or leave a blank screen if the dimensions do not fit.<\/p>\n

    \"instagram<\/a><\/p>\n

    What if the image does not fit into the Instagram story?<\/h2>\n

    Make sure to keep the 9:16 aspect ratio for your Instagram stories. <\/strong><\/p>\n

    This is the main problem Instagram users have.<\/p>\n

    If you decrease the image or video resolution while keeping the aspect ratio in pixels (900 x 1600 or 720 x 1280), this will make your story buffer faster on users devices.<\/p>\n

    Although, don’t reduce it to less than 600 x 1067 or the quality will be reduced.<\/p>\n
