TL;DR: While platforms evolve, sticking to proven aspect ratios dramatically reduces surprises: 1:1 (square), 4:5 (portrait), 9:16 (full‑screen vertical), 16:9 (landscape). This guide provides 2025 working sizes and downloadable SVG templates. Pair them with on‑device Resize/Crop/Compress for production‑ready assets.
Note: Specifications change. We provide commonly recommended, widely compatible sizes. For mission‑critical campaigns, consult the latest platform documentation.
How to use these templates
- Download the SVG templates (see each section and the bundle list below). Open in Figma/Sketch/Illustrator or directly in the browser.
- Process locally with our tools:
- Resize to exact pixels: Resize
- Frame composition by aspect ratio: Crop
- Perceptual compression: Squoosh
Use the hosted tools directly: https://resize.oneimage.co, https://crop.oneimage.co, https://squoosh.oneimage.co.

Tip: Portrait posts (4:5) capture more on‑screen real estate on mobile. Keep key elements inside the inner safe area.

Practical workflow tips
- Lock aspect ratio first, then pixels. Ratios preserve composition; use “Resize” to hit exact sizes.
- Keep critical text/logos within inner safe areas to avoid platform UI overlays/cropping.
- Compress perceptually (AVIF/WebP/JPEG) and visually QA thumbnails and covers before publishing.
- Build a master at the largest ratio, then derive alternates via “Crop” to avoid re‑designing.
