Resize video for Instagram
Resize Instagram video
With the Flixier online video editor you can resize Instagram videos in no time. Flixier supports resizing your video to any aspect ratio or resolution meaning that you can easily get your video ready for Instagram posts, Instagram stories or IGTV without downloading or installing any software.
Resize video for Instagram posts
Even though Instagram posts support many sizes like Square and Landscape we would recommend choosing a taller video size. A good resolution is 1080x1350p which you can easily set in Flixier.
Resize video for IGTV
For IGTV it is recommended to resize or shoot your video with a 9:16 aspect ratio which will translate in a 1080x1920p resolution. You can set this resolution within your Flixier video settings on the right side of the screen.
Resize video for Instagram Story and Reels
For a great Instagram Story and Reels experience we recommend creating videos in a tall 9:16 aspect ratio. This would translate to a resolution of 1080x1920p which can be set in Flixier in just a few clicks.
Resize video for Instagram carousels
Video sizes for carousels are very similar with Instagram posts, you can choose from any of the aspect ratios mentioned in the Posts section. One thing to keep in mind is that your first video in the carousel will dictate the size of the rest which means that they will be cropped to fit that size.
How to resize a video for Instagram
To resize a video for Instagram you need to add it to Flixier first. You can do this by uploading from your computer or just use our direct integrations with cloud storage services, YouTube, Twitch, Zoom and many more.
With the video added to Flixier you can drag it on the timeline and, from the right side of the screen you can set a new video size. At this point you can also drag from the corners of the video to make it fit on the new video size or click and drag it around to center it to your liking.
When happy with the result just click the Export button to publish or download the video. The download feature will let you save the video on your local computer storage while publishing will send the video directly to your social media accounts or cloud storage services.

I’ve been looking for a solution like Flixier for years. Now that my virtual team and I can edit projects together on the cloud with Flixier, it tripled my company’s video output! Super easy to use and unbelievably quick exports.
My main criteria for an editor was that the interface is familiar and most importantly that the renders were in the cloud and super fast. Flixier more than delivered in both. I've now been using it daily to edit Facebook videos for my 1M follower page.
