1200px width recommended for Facebook posts

Resize Image for Facebook | MiniPx — Free, Fast & Private

Facebook recommends specific image sizes for different placements. Using the right dimensions prevents cropping, blurriness, and wasted bandwidth. MiniPx helps you resize and compress images to exact Facebook specs.

Key Facebook sizes: Profile photo — 170x170px (displays as circle). Cover photo — 820x312px on desktop, 640x360px on mobile. Feed post — 1200x630px (landscape) or 1080x1080px (square). Event cover — 1920x1005px.

For feed posts, Facebook recommends uploading at 1200px wide minimum. Images below this are upscaled and look blurry. MiniPx lets you resize to exact dimensions while compressing for fast upload.

MiniPx also compresses images for Facebook. While Facebook re-compresses everything you upload, starting with a well-optimized image produces better final quality than uploading a massive raw file.

All processing happens in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded to any server except when you share them on Facebook yourself.
