Instagram now lets users upload photos in a 3:4 aspect ratio without cropping them. This update is based on the default aspect ratio seen in many smartphone cameras. Instagram originally allowed photographs in the 5:4 or 1:1 aspect ratios. The new option will be available when you upload a single image or add many photographs to a carousel. Instagram also launched a new Edits app for video editing on smartphones last month, competing with CapCut and allowing users to edit and post videos without a watermark.
Instagram has added support for 3:4 aspect ratio photographs, allowing users to upload images in previously supported aspect ratios. Instagram’s Adam Mosseri noted that the format will look precisely how the user captured it, making it compatible with most smartphone cameras.

However, Instagram’s creator broadcast channel has stated that the site supports 3:4 aspect ratio photographs for single-photo postings and carousels. Users may still submit 4:5 and 1:1 square photos and carousels, however photographs taken using a smartphone camera on basic settings may require cropping. Users may also post photographs in 4:5 and 1:1 square format, as well as carousels.
