Why 820×312 is the Facebook standard

820×312 pixels is Facebook's official cover photo size on desktop — a wide panoramic strip that sits above your page or profile. Upload anything else and Facebook scales it to fit, which is the number-one cause of blurry, soft covers: your image gets resized twice, once by you and once by Facebook.

One important catch: on phones the same cover displays at 640×360, cropped from the sides. So design for 820×312 but keep the important stuff — faces, text, logos — in the middle band that survives the mobile crop.

Tips for a sharp Facebook cover

  • Respect the safe zone. Keep text and logos in the central ~640px. The left and right edges vanish on phones — this is where most ruined covers go wrong.
  • PNG for graphics, JPG for photos. Covers with text or logos stay sharper as PNG; photographic covers are fine as much smaller JPGs.
  • Go 2× for extra sharpness. Designing at 1640×624 then letting Facebook downscale produces noticeably crisper results on high-DPI screens — type it into the dimension boxes here.
  • Crop to fill, never stretch. The default crop trims edges instead of squishing your design — or compose the 820:312 crop yourself first for full control.

Common uses

  • Facebook page covers — the official 820×312 size, ready to upload.
  • Group covers — same dimensions for community headers.
  • Event covers — sharp banners for event pages.
  • Profile covers — personal timeline headers that stay crisp.

Frequently asked questions

What size is a Facebook cover photo?

820 × 312 pixels on desktop — Facebook's official specification. On smartphones the same cover displays at 640 × 360, cropped from the sides, so 820×312 is the design size to aim for.

Why does my Facebook cover look blurry?

Facebook compresses covers aggressively, and uploading at the wrong size forces a second scaling that softens everything. Upload at exactly 820×312 — or 1640×624 for extra sharpness on high-DPI screens — and use PNG for graphics with text.

Will my photo be stretched to fit 820×312?

No. This page crops your image to fill the 820×312 frame by default, so nothing looks stretched. If your design is already wide, almost nothing gets cropped.

What is the safe zone for a Facebook cover?

Keep text, logos and faces in the central area of the design. On phones Facebook crops the left and right edges down to a 640-wide view, so anything important near the edges disappears on mobile.

JPG or PNG for a Facebook cover?

PNG for covers with text, logos or solid colors — it survives Facebook's compression with sharper edges. JPG is fine for photographic covers and produces much smaller files.
