Questions about this tool
What size does this Instagram Story preset create?
It creates an image that is exactly 1080 pixels wide and 1920 pixels tall. a practical 9:16 full-screen export based on Meta's current Story ratio guidance. Platform guidance can change, so recheck it before a high-stakes campaign.
Will the result be exactly 1080x1920 pixels?
Yes. Every fitting mode creates a 1080x1920px canvas, and the result card shows the measured dimensions before download.

Crop fills the canvas without distortion and trims the long edges. Fit keeps the full image and adds padding. Stretch fills the canvas but can distort proportions.
Is the image uploaded for resizing?
No. The browser decodes, resizes, previews, and exports the image locally. The source and output images are not sent to Peelaway.
