What Size Should Your Instagram Profile Picture Be?

To ensure that it appears crisp and clear, the size of your profile image should be appropriate. Instagram shows images at 110 x 110 pixels, despite compressing them to 320 x 320 pixels. Upload a high-quality photo with a 1:1 aspect ratio to ensure your photo looks fantastic. Additionally, keep in mind that the file size should not exceed 10MB.

Cool Ideas for Your Instagram Profile Picture

1. Use Your Photo
