1. Reasons for changing the Instagram feed ratio

 

The Instagram feed, which used to be a square with a 1:1 ratio, has changed to a 4:5 ratio (vertical).
Why did it change like this?
- Reflecting user trends: People are increasingly uploading vertical content (photos, videos).


- Minimize loss of original image: Previously, if the original photo was cropped or its aspect ratio was broken, you can now upload it in its original form!


- Integration with Reels: They say they've unified the ratio of Reels and Feeds to make them look better.

If you want to preserve the original 1:1 ratio photo, try adding a white or black background.
White background: Gives the photo a bright and clean feel.
Black background: Makes the colors in the photo stand out more.
