Threads Image Size Tips

Same sizes as Instagram

Threads uses the same image dimensions as Instagram. Square (1080 × 1080px), portrait (1080 × 1350px), and landscape (1080 × 566px) are all supported.

Square images work best

While Threads supports multiple aspect ratios, 1080 × 1080px square images display most consistently across the feed and in replies.

Carousels boost engagement

Threads supports up to 10 images per carousel post. Using multi-image posts increases time spent on your content and engagement.

Profile syncs from Instagram

Your Threads profile photo syncs from your linked Instagram account. Changes must be made on Instagram and will automatically update on Threads.

Optimize video for mobile

Threads is mobile-first. Upload videos at 1080 × 1920px (9:16) for vertical viewing. Keep videos under 5 minutes for best engagement.
