Video format for Instagram


First of all, do not try and also upload huge videos, everything is downscaled to an optimum size of 1080 pixels (elevation can be anything, square or not), so publishing ultra-HD videos (or videos with an extremely high bitrate) is meaningless.

That allows you see a sneak peek of what the video that we will certainly upload will certainly appear like by clicking the video symbol/ thumbnail on the article.

Anticipate videos to take quite a while longer compared to photos to actually post at your scheduled time as well as date. This is because of their loved one filesize when we post it to Instagram.

For how long can your videos be?
