Instagram carousel size
Carousel slides share one shape, set by the first: 1080 × 1350 portrait, 1080 × 1440 for 3:4 or 1080 × 1080 square. Resize each slide to match in the browser.
1080 × 1350
The most room in the feed for a photo.
Runs in your browser. Nothing you type or upload is sent anywhere.
A carousel holds up to 20 photos and videos. Instagram crops every slide to the shape of the first, so slides made at different sizes get trimmed unevenly.
Make every slide at the same size before you upload. Portrait 4:5 is the usual choice; 3:4 matches the profile grid exactly.

Can slides be different shapes?
No. The first slide sets the shape and the rest are cropped to it.
