Green part: keep text, price and logo here so they stay visible.

MAIN MARGINS269 px top · 672 px bottom · 65 px on the sides

Hatched strips: the interface may cover these spaces. Keep important information out of them.

Keep the icon column on the right clear. Sizes are approximate references.

Text, price, logo and button are easier to read when they have room to breathe inside the recommended area.

HOW TO CHOOSE

A simple rule to avoid crops

In Feed, formats between 4:5 and 1.91:1 usually fit the space. A taller or wider design may be cropped. In Stories and Reels, use 9:16 to fill the whole screen.

STORIES AND REELS

Margins change from one placement to another

The app controls take up different parts of the screen. Use these sizes as a reference and keep important information inside the recommended area.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Why does my image look cropped?

Your design’s aspect ratio may differ from the placement’s. A square image in a Story, for example, has to be cropped on the sides to fill the screen — or shown whole with background bars.

What is the best size for Stories and Reels?

1080 × 1920 px (9:16). Keep text and buttons away from the top and bottom.

Do I need one image for Feed and another for Stories?

It isn’t required, but it usually gives better results. In Ads Manager you can use a single image or change the image per placement. In ViuAnúncio, upload a second design to simulate specific versions for Feed or for Stories and Reels.
