ImgWrench is a free Instagram story resizer: drop in a photo and get a 1080×1920 image in the 9:16 shape Meta recommends for Stories, so nothing gets cut off in a way you didn't choose. Resize a whole set at once and download them as a ZIP.
How to resize an Instagram story
- Drop your photos into the tool above.
- Choose Cover to fill the screen, Contain to keep the whole photo, or Crop to pick the area yourself.
- Check the preview.
- Download single stories or everything as a ZIP.
Posting your story
Save the images to your phone, open the Instagram app and start a new story. Pick your image from your gallery, add any stickers or text, and share it.
Design tips
- Leave room at the top and bottom. Instagram places your name and the reply bar over the story, so keep key details toward the middle.
- Crop on purpose. A landscape photo loses most of its width at 9:16; Crop lets you choose which part stays.
- Keep text large. Stories are watched quickly on small screens.
