What size is an Instagram Story collage?

1080 × 1920 pixels (9:16). That's exactly what this editor exports, so Instagram won't crop or rescale it.

Can I use the same collage for Facebook Stories and Reels covers?

Yes — they use the same 9:16 shape, so one export works for all three.

Instagram Story Collage Maker

Stories are tall, full-screen and gone in a tap, so the layout has to read instantly. This page opens the editor on a 9:16 canvas with Cascade — one big hero photo with smaller memories flowing in front — ready for your photos.

Canvas: Instagram Story · 9:16
Export size: 1080 × 1920 px
Layout: Cascade
Photos: 6 frames
Formats: PNG or JPG

Example instagram story collage made with the Cascade layout — Example: Cascade at 1080 × 1920, made with the sample photos.

Designing for a tall, fast screen

A Story is seen full-screen on a phone, usually for two or three seconds, so one clear focal point beats many small ones. Cascade gives the top of the canvas to a single photo and lets the rest overlap below it: the eye lands on the hero first, then drifts down. If you have more than six favourites, post a second Story rather than shrinking every photo to fit.

Posting it

Export the collage, start a new Story in Instagram and pick the image from your camera roll. Because the file is already 1080×1920, it fills the screen with no zooming or black bars. If you made it on a computer, send the file to your phone first — AirDrop, email or a cloud folder all work.

Tips

Keep faces and text out of the top and bottom ~250 pixels — Instagram puts your profile name and the reply bar there.
Put your strongest photo in the hero frame; it's what people see before they tap away.
Export as JPG for a smaller upload, or PNG if your collage has fine text you want perfectly sharp.
