So, did you catch Instagram’s update from a couple of weeks ago? They’re now supporting 3:4 aspect ratio photos, which is the natural format for most phone cameras!
What does that mean for you? Well, when you upload a 3:4 image, it’ll display exactly as you shot it—no more stretching or weird cropping to fit the frame.
Instagram mentioned this in their Creators channel: “Going forward, when you upload a 3:4 image, it’ll appear exactly as you shot it. This works for both single-photo posts and carousels.”
It’s a small change, but for those of us who care about the little details in our visuals, it’s a win. What do you think? Is this a helpful update? What size do you usually post in?
