Resize Images for Social Media (2026 Sizes)

The exact 2026 pixel sizes for every major social platform — plus a free resizer that produces every version in one click.

Why the right size matters

Uploading an off-spec image forces the platform to crop or re-encode it. Both destroy quality. Uploading pre-resized files preserves sharpness and controls exactly what viewers see.

Instagram sizes (2026)

Square post: 1080×1080. Portrait post: 1080×1350. Reel/Story: 1080×1920. Profile picture: 320×320.

TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest

TikTok video: 1080×1920. Facebook feed: 1200×630. YouTube thumbnail: 1280×720. LinkedIn feed: 1200×627. Twitter/X card: 1600×900. Pinterest pin: 1000×1500.

How to resize in ToolFlexPro

Open the Image Resizer, drop your source, and either pick a platform preset or enter custom dimensions. Aspect-ratio lock keeps the composition correct.

Sharpen after resizing

Downsizing always slightly softens an image. A tiny amount of unsharp mask (0.3px radius, 30% strength) restores perceived sharpness without over-processing.

Frequently asked questions

Should I crop or fit?

Crop when composition can afford it — the result looks intentional. Fit when text or subject placement is critical.

Is there quality loss when resizing?

Downscaling is essentially lossless when saved as PNG or a high-quality JPG. Upscaling always loses fidelity.

Conclusion

Get the size right before you upload, and every platform rewards you with sharper feeds, better engagement, and cleaner previews.
