The 1640×624 format at a glance
The Facebook cover photo at 1640×624 pixels sits at the very top of your page or profile. It is cropped slightly differently depending on the device, so keep the subject in the center.
What it's good for
- Brand or page branding above the timeline
- Pointing to current promotions, events or offers
- A mood image that shows what the brand is about
Common mistakes
- Placing important content at the bottom edge, which gets cropped on mobile
- Placing text on the left edge, where the profile photo and buttons are
- Stretching an image that is too narrow to the full width
How it works
- 1 Drag your image into the box or choose it: JPG, PNG, WebP and other common formats.
- 2 Move and resize the frame until the crop fits. The aspect ratio 205:78 is fixed, and “Auto-center” finds the subject on its own.
- 3 Choose the file format (JPG, PNG or WebP) and the quality if needed.
- 4 Download the image at exactly 1640×624 pixels, ready to upload.
Frequently asked questions
What size is the Facebook Cover Photo?
The recommended size is 1640×624 pixels with an aspect ratio of 205:78. Your image is downloaded at exactly this size.
Will my image be distorted?
No. The aspect ratio is fixed, you only choose the crop. If your subject doesn't fit the format at all, “Fit” places the whole image inside and fills the edges with a blurred version of the image.
Do location and camera data stay in the image?
No. When saving, metadata such as EXIF, GPS location and camera info is removed automatically. That protects you when you share images publicly.
Are my images uploaded?
No. With this tool, your image never leaves your device.
Is the tool free?
Yes, with no sign-up, no installation and no watermark from us.
