# What size should my social media images be?

It depends on the platform, so this does the math for you. Resize and crop one image for Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and X, strip GPS and camera data from photos before you post, and find out which file format to ask your designer for. All in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Which file format?

## One image, every platform

Upload once, pick a size, download. No design degree required.

 Your image never leaves your device

Choose an image

or drag & drop one here

## Pick your size

## Rotate

 Rotate left 90°

 Rotate right 90°

## How should it fit?

Fit (with padding)

Fill (crop to edges)

## Where should the image sit?

Saved per platform. Centre works for most, but a banner might want the subject pushed right. You can also drag the preview.

Margin 0%

Reset

JPG (smaller file)

Download

Need every size? Tap through the presets and download each one.

Start over with a new image

Cropping may trim edges, so preview before you post.

Want visuals built to fit every platform from the start? [hi@brandnamenerd.com](mailto:hi@brandnamenerd.com)

## Strip photo metadata

Remove GPS location, camera model, timestamps, and hidden EXIF data before you share. Your image never leaves this page.

 100% private, processed on your device

Choose a photo

or drag & drop one here (JPG, PNG, HEIC, WebP)

 iPhone HEIC photos work in every browser. Chrome and Firefox can’t show a HEIC preview, but the clean copy still works.

Chrome and Firefox can’t preview HEIC photos. The file is still cleaned.

Original

No preview in Chrome or Firefox. The clean file opens normally in Photos, Preview and Safari.

Clean copy

| Field | Value |

Your picture is not re-compressed. The clean copy is the same image with the hidden data cut out, so there is no quality loss.

Strip another photo

Metadata removal happens in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to any server.
