Supported Formats

- JPG — smallest file size; ideal for photos, passport images, and any upload portal with a strict KB limit.
- PNG — lossless; best for screenshots, graphics with text, and images that need a transparent background.
- WebP — 25–35% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality; supported in all modern browsers.
Privacy Guarantee — Your Files Stay on Your Device
All resizing, compression, and format conversion runs entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. No image data, document content, or metadata is ever uploaded to any server. This includes sensitive files like passport photos, signature images, ID documents, and application form attachments. When you close the tab, all temporary data is discarded. Read our Privacy Policy.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the correct Instagram Story size?
- Instagram Stories and Reels should be 1080×1920 px with a 9:16 aspect ratio. The safe zone (where UI elements don't overlap) is roughly the center 1080×1420 px.
- Can I use this for TikTok and YouTube Shorts?
- Yes — TikTok and YouTube Shorts use the same 1080×1920 px (9:16) vertical format, so the same resized image works for all three platforms.
- What is the maximum file size for an Instagram Story?
- Instagram accepts Story images up to 8 MB. A 1080×1920 JPG at high quality is typically 300 KB–2 MB, well within the limit.
- Will my image be cropped when I resize it?
- This tool does not crop — it resizes to fit within 1080×1920 px while maintaining your original ratio. If your source image has a different aspect ratio, add padding or crop it first.
- Is Resizeify safe to use for sensitive documents, passports, and signatures?
- Yes, 100%. Resizeify operates entirely client-side inside your web browser. Your photos and documents are processed locally on your device and are never uploaded to external servers or stored anywhere.
