Stories are blurry<\/strong> after posting a photo or video, we got all the right answers you need and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Blurry Instagram Stories may sometimes have nothing to do with the user\u2019s device<\/strong>, and it may just be Instagram doing the most with their size limit and aspect ratio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you post a photo on your Instagram Stories, and it is over 2MB in size or has an aspect ratio of more than 1080px by 1920px (9:16), these factors can reduce the image quality. This applies to both photos and videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-photos-over-1mb\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-photos-over-1mb\"><\/span>1. Photos Over 1MB<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you uploaded a photo of 1MB in size, Instagram will compress the image, and this will make it lose quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid Instagram compressing the quality of the photo you post to your story, make sure that the image is less than 1MB in file size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-your-aspects-ratio\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-your-aspects-ratio\"><\/span>2. Your Aspects Ratio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you post on your Instagram Story and the photo gets blurry, it is because the photo aspect ratio is not correct, too large, or too small. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you posted the image on Instagram, the photo-sharing app will crop and compress the quality of the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Instagram Story aspect ratio is 1080px by 1920px (9:16)<\/strong>, and if you have an image that is wider than this, it will be cropped and compressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-photo-quality-is-too-low\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-photo-quality-is-too-low\"><\/span>3. Photo Quality Is Too Low<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you upload a <strong>low-quality image on your Instagram Stories, it will also come out blurry<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this will result in a bad experience if your followers are viewing the photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just to make sure, when posting an image to your stories, let the photo be of high quality so as it won&#8217;t lower the post quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Posting an image that is too small, and has a low resolution will make Instagram stretch the photo to the end of your screen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which will cause the image to be blurry. Stretching the original picture you uploaded kills the quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bad-internet-connection\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-bad-internet-connection\"><\/span>4. Bad Internet Connection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a slow connection, your <strong>Instagram Stories may appear blurry because of your network connection.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram will reduce the quality of the image when trying to load Stories, so that it can load faster and for a better experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if your connection comes up immediately, this should eradicate the problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a bad internet connection, Instagram will make the story blurry for you to see, this is to help speed up the load time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-data-saver-turns-on\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-data-saver-turns-on\"><\/span>5.

One of these can help you too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-use-the-correct-aspect-ratio-and-size-for-your-photos\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"fix-1-use-the-correct-aspect-ratio-and-size-for-your-photos\"><\/span>Fix 1: Use The Correct Aspect Ratio And Size For Your Photos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The aspect ratio is one of the key factors that determine why your Instagram Stories are blurry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid Instagram lowering the quality of your image, you will have to use an aspect ratio of 9:16, and size of 1080px by 1920px. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This alone will make the photo appear fit on the screen, and won&#8217;t stretch or be larger than the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you do this, Instagram will use the original photo and just <strong>compress it a little for your Stories<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And don&#8217;t forget to always keep to the image size, if it&#8217;s more than or less, Instagram will reduce the quality of the photo by extra large or by stretching it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To set your photo size to 1080px by 1920px, you can use photo editing apps like Lightroom, Snapseed, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These apps can help you set an aspect ratio to your picture, or you can use the 1080px by 1920px size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-post-high-quality-image\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"fix-2-post-high-quality-image\"><\/span>Fix 2: Post-High-quality Image<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people uploading photos on their Instagram Stories are not using a high-quality image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when it is posted, Instagram will compress it, and the quality of the photo goes down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to stop the blurry Instagram Stories you need to use a higher-quality image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use high-quality images on your Instagram Stories, with photos that are not up to 1MB in size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will allow Instagram to upload the photos with a higher resolution even if it&#8217;s still compressed, and you won&#8217;t even know. High-quality images don&#8217;t get blurred when uploaded to the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-check-your-internet-connection\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"fix-3-check-your-internet-connection\"><\/span>Fix 3: Check Your Internet Connection.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way you can use to fix this problem is by checking your internet connection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are looking at a photo on Instagram Stories and it&#8217;s blurry, it means that you may have a bad internet connection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And thus, Instagram will reduce the image quality to enable your network to load it faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you upload a photo and it later turns out blurry, it may also be because of your internet connection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this is not quite the case, but it happens. When uploading and your internet connection fluctuate, the lower version of the image will be posted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So to have this stop, you should use a good internet connection or just pass the time out for your connection to return. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your mobile network isn&#8217;t as stable during that time, instead, you can use a Wi-Fi connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-adjust-your-phones-camera-settings\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"fix-4-adjust-your-phones-camera-settings\"><\/span>Fix 4: Adjust Your Phones Camera Settings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a device that when you take a photo it will be over 3 to 5MB, you need to change the camera settings so that when you post on your Instagram Stories, the image won&#8217;t lose much quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram will compress the image more if the size is too high. Whereas you can also get good image quality for less than 1MB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you adjust your phone camera settings, you will have a better photo experience when viewing it, even if Instagram still compresses it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the image won&#8217;t be as blurry as when the size is too high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To reduce the size or quality of the picture, you can use an <a href=\"https:\/\/imagecompressor.11zon.com\/en\/image-compressor\/compress-image-to-20kb-online.php\">online tool<\/a> to drop the file size. Or reduce the picture quality when you take a photo with your phone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go to <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0);color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Camera app<\/mark> &gt;

Your Instagram Story size should have an aspect ratio of 9:16. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The minimum width is 500 pixels, the maximum video length is 15 seconds, and the accepted video file types are MP4, MOV, or GIF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-can-t-i-post-a-1-minute-video-on-the-instagram-story\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-cant-i-post-a-1-minute-video-on-the-instagram-story\"><\/span>Why can&#8217;t I post a 1-minute video on the Instagram story?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because Instagram divided the video into four 15-second smaller parts, which is 15 + 15 + 15 + 15 = 60 seconds or 1 minute only.
