How this tool works

Editable preset

The width and height start at 820 × 312 and can be changed to any size. Facebook Cover Photo Resizer always reports the final dimensions in the result panel.

Fit and crop focus

Cover fills the frame and may crop (the crop focus chooses which part is kept); Contain shows the whole image with padding; Stretch ignores the aspect ratio.

Format, quality, size

Pick JPG, PNG, WebP, or same-as-input, set the quality, and optionally a target file size. JPG fills transparency with the background color.

Verify before you post

Facebook Cover Photo Resizer is an independent browser tool and is not affiliated with Facebook or Meta. Confirm the current Facebook requirements, since sizes vary by placement and device. Re-encoding removes metadata.

Facebook Cover Photo Resizer in your browser

Facebook Cover Photo Resizer resizes a cover photo to a common Facebook cover photo size (820 × 312), a size commonly used on Facebook. The dimensions are pre-filled and fully editable, so you can keep the common size or type your own, and the result panel always shows the final pixel dimensions.

Choose how the image fills the frame: Cover fills it and may crop the edges (use the crop-focus control to keep the important part, such as a face), Contain shows the whole image with padding, and Stretch ignores the aspect ratio. Output can be JPG (a common social default), PNG or WebP (which keep transparency when the background is set to Transparent), or the same format as the input (JPG, PNG, or WebP), and JPG fills transparent areas with your background color. Facebook crops covers differently on desktop and mobile, so keep important text and logos near the center; a desktop/mobile safe-area overlay is a planned enhancement.

This is an independent browser tool and is not affiliated with Facebook or Meta — Facebook sizes change and can vary by placement and device, so verify the current requirements before uploading. Re-encoding strips EXIF and other metadata, and animated GIFs are exported as a single still frame.

Frequently asked questions

Is Facebook Cover Photo Resizer an official Facebook tool?

No. Facebook Cover Photo Resizer is an independent browser tool and is not affiliated with Facebook or Meta. Sizes and rules can change, so always verify the current Facebook upload requirements before you post.

Are my files uploaded to a server by Facebook Cover Photo Resizer?

No. The resize happens in your browser using the HTML canvas, and your cover photo is never sent to imgtoolsbase or any server.

Can I change the size in Facebook Cover Photo Resizer instead of using the 820 × 312 preset?

Yes. Facebook Cover Photo Resizer pre-fills the width and height with 820 × 312, but both are fully editable, so you can enter any custom size and the result panel shows the dimensions actually produced.

With Facebook Cover Photo Resizer, how do I control which part is cropped?

Facebook Cover Photo Resizer lets you use Contain to keep the whole cover photo with padding, or keep Cover and set the crop focus (for example Top) so the important part of your cover photo stays in frame.

Will my Facebook cover be cropped differently on mobile?

Likely yes. Facebook shows covers with different crops on desktop and mobile apps, so keep key text and logos near the center. A visible desktop/mobile safe-area overlay is planned; for now, use Contain or the crop focus to protect important content.
