Frequently asked questions

What is the exact size for Facebook cover photos in 2026?
Facebook recommends a desktop resolution of 820 pixels wide by 312 pixels tall (approx 16:9 ratio), and displays at 640 × 360 pixels on smartphones. Keeping your file under 500 KB (specifically 100–300 KB sRGB JPG) prevents Facebook from applying aggressive compression artifacts.
Why does Facebook crop my cover photo on mobile devices?
Facebook uses a dynamic responsive layout: on desktop it renders at 820 × 312 px (taller aspect ratio), while on mobile it shows 640 × 360 px (narrower aspect ratio). To prevent cutoffs, keep all critical text, faces, and brand logos within the center 640 × 312 px safe zone.
Will resizing my cover photo reduce its clarity or blur text?
No. PixelKit uses Lanczos high-fidelity resampling to ensure sharp lines and crystal-clear lettering. By exporting directly to a web-optimized sRGB JPG under 500 KB, Facebook loads your original quality without re-compressing it into blurry artifacts.
Are my personal or business cover photos uploaded to any server?
Never. PixelKit runs 100% locally in your web browser via WebAssembly and HTML5 Canvas. Your photos never leave your device, ensuring total privacy for personal, business, and enterprise page banners.
