Genuine question, is there a new sizing for Instagram pictures? For both, landscape and square? I've tried 1080 PX by 1080 PX and it still doesn't fit. It's too big. Even when I try landscape, I use the preferred size for landscape but also nothing. Can someone help?

Can you please show what you are doing and what doesn't work? If it's a photo, then maybe content aware scaling in Photoshop would work better than Illustrator scaling.

Its a quote im trying to upload. I tried both 1080px by 1080px and 1350px and even landscape aspects but still to big or to wide. I found a way around it on the 1080 by 1350 artboard which was creating a square as you can see in the picture which makes it perfect for the Instagram post size. I genuinely dont understand why its to big and wide

Its a problem with the size of the export. To my understanding, I thought the perfect size for Instagram was 1080px by 1080px but when I export it and try it, it crops it out and doesn't show everything. 


Everything else is fine. Quality, export, etc. The only person is when I send it to my phone and try to add it to Instagram, it doesn't show everything because its to big.
