Aspect ratio: We recommend 9:16 to avoid cropping or blank space. If the aspect ratio of the original image is not 9:16, Instagram crops the image and use the middle most 9:16 rectangle as the cover photo for the reel. If you share a reel to your feed, Instagram crops the image and use the middle most 1:1 square as the cover photo for your feed post.
