Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ideal Facebook cover photo size?

The ideal Facebook cover photo size is 820×462 px for cross-device compatibility (16:9 ratio). The minimum is 820×312 for desktop only. Facebook will crop a 16:9 image to 820×312 on desktop — keep important content centered.

What size should Facebook post images be?

The recommended Facebook post image size is 1200×630 px (1.91:1 ratio). This displays clearly in the news feed. Square images at 1200×1200 px also perform well and take up more vertical feed space.

What is the Facebook profile picture size?

Facebook displays profile pictures at 170×170 px on desktop and 128×128 on mobile. Upload at least 180×180 px for a sharp result. Facebook crops it to a circle automatically.
