Whether you are creating a banner for a Facebook Business Page, a Facebook Group, or an upcoming Facebook Event, this tool ensures your visuals look sharp, professional, and perfectly aligned every single time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the exact size for a Facebook cover photo?
The ideal dimension for a Facebook page cover photo is 851 pixels wide by 315 pixels tall on desktop. For mobile devices, Facebook scales the image to 640 x 360 pixels, so keeping your core graphics and text within a central “safe zone” prevents them from getting cut off.
Why does Facebook crop my cover photo on mobile?
Desktop screens display covers in a wide landscape format (851×315), while mobile phones display them in a slightly taller, narrower ratio. When you use our converter, you can preview how your image will look across different screens before downloading.
What file format should my Facebook cover be?
For the highest quality and sharpest text, export your cover as a PNG file, especially if your cover includes text or a company logo. For photographs without text, a high-quality JPG file works best to keep file sizes small and load times fast.
