Checklist
Export checklist
| Step | Check |
|---|---|
| Build per placement | Use square feed artwork and a separate 9:16 composition for Reels and Stories. |
| Respect safe areas | Keep logos, captions, offers, and faces away from top and bottom overlays. |
| Use high source pixels | Instagram keeps photos up to 1080 px wide when the aspect ratio is supported. |
| Preview before launch | Check Ads Manager placement previews because Advantage+ creative and placement customization can alter crops. |
