The 1080×1920 format at a glance
WhatsApp Status works like a Story: vertical full screen at 1080×1920 (9:16). It stays visible for 24 hours and is good for quick personal or business updates.
What it's good for
- Short updates, offers or announcements
- Reusing Instagram Story content
- Personal moments in portrait format
Common mistakes
- Placing text too high or too low, where interface elements cover it
- Squeezing landscape images into portrait
- Using text too small for the mobile view
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 9:16 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 1080×1920 pixels, ready to upload.
Frequently asked questions
What size is the WhatsApp Status Image?
The recommended size is 1080×1920 pixels with an aspect ratio of 9:16. 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.
