Facebook Cover Photo Resizer: how it works
Facebook cover presentation can shift between desktop and mobile, so a static pixel canvas cannot ensure identical framing everywhere. This tool lets you position the subject inside a wide image and preview what the composition looks like before exporting.
Choose Crop or Fit
| Setting | Best for |
|---|---|
| Crop to fill | Photos that must cover the entire output with no borders |
| Fit entire image | Preserving every part of an original without cutting off edges |
| Blur background | Filling unused space with a softened version of the original photo |

Before you download: limits and trade-offs
Facebook may display cover photos differently on phones and computers. Center the essential content and test both layouts before relying on text near the far left or right edges.
