Instagram profile picture size

Instagram displays profile pictures as roughly a 320×320 circle. Upload a square image at least that size — larger is better, since Instagram scales down — and keep your subject centered so the circular crop doesn't clip it. At the small size shown next to comments, a clean cutout reads far better than a detailed background.

Remove the background without uploading

The background remover works entirely in your browser — your photo is never sent to a server. Cut yourself or your logo out, drop it onto a solid brand color, and export. A transparent PNG also lets you reuse the same cutout across stories, highlights, and posts.

Frequently asked questions

What size should an Instagram profile picture be?

Instagram shows profile pictures as about a 320×320 circle. Upload a square image at least 320×320 (larger is fine) with your subject centered.

Why does Instagram crop my profile picture?

Instagram masks profile photos into a circle, so square corners are cut off. Keep your face or logo centered with a little padding around it.

Can I make a transparent Instagram profile picture?

Yes — remove the background here and export a transparent PNG. Instagram places it inside its circular frame.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. The cutout is generated in your browser on your own device. Your image never leaves your computer.
