New Delhi. Instagram has recently been paying more attention to reels and stories, but this most famous platform of Meta has not forgotten those who like to put pictures in their feed. For years, Instagram has made its mark by compulsory by compulsory 1: 1 square aspect ratio for photo uploads. Although many people prefer this 1: 1 aspect ratio for beauty, but many users have always complained that they cannot upload photos taken from their smartphone in the same way. It seems that Instagram has listened to him.
In a post shared on threads, Instagram chief Adam Moseri announced the new 3: 4 aspect ratio for the photo upload. This new option will now be able to default for all the pictures that are taken in 3: 4 aspect ratios. Compared to the last 1: 1 square and 4: 5 rectangular aspect ratio, the new 3: 4 ratio will give more vertical space. Moseri “Instagram now supports a photo with 3: 4 aspect ratios – this is the same format that uses almost every phone camera default. From now on, if you upload 3: 4 images, it will look exactly the same as you shot it.

3: 4 'vertical photos' have arrived on Instagram
The new 3: 4 vertical aspect ratio will apply to both single-photographs and multi-photograph carocel post. With 1: 1 square and 4: 5 rectangular photo posts, Instagram says that now users have more flakes to upload their photos as per their choice.
The new aspect ratio is part of the move of Instagram to make the platform more vertical content-friendly. Ever since Reels has become the main part of the platform, Instagram has made changes to make the layout more vertical-friendly so that it can fit better in modern smartphone screen dimensions. The profile grid now shows photo and video posts in rectangular slots instead of previous square layout.
