Instagram Reels Size & Aspect Ratio
Reels share TikTok’s 9:16 canvas but sit inside Instagram’s chrome. 1080×1920 is the export. Covers are the same ratio.

Export notes
Design the cover for 9:16, then check a 4:5 crop. The feed tile often clips the top and bottom.
Audio, share, and caption UI hug the right edge. Keep faces slightly left of center.
If you also post Shorts and TikTok, lock 1080×1920 once and reuse the master.
