The next photo you post on Instagram can finally be completely unedited, as the app has been updated to support 3:4 images.
Most phone cameras take images in 3:4 by default, so this change will allow you to post photos without having to crop them a bit. Previously, the tallest photo you could post on the app was 4:5.
Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri announced the change on Threads, and most of the responses to that post have been positive, suggesting that people are happy with the change.
The photo-sharing app recently changed the aspect ratio of the grid of photos on each profile to 4:5, which should have probably aligned with this update since now posts and photos on the grid can match once again.
