Resize Image for WhatsApp Online

This tool uses 800x800 pixels as a practical high-resolution square preset. WhatsApp guidance specifies at least 192x192 pixels for a profile photo. Because profile photos display as circles, keep faces and logos centred and away from the corners.

Use a 9:16 vertical image for WhatsApp Status. This tool provides a high-resolution 1080x1920 preset. WhatsApp's Status integration guidance recommends at least 720x1280 pixels, so 1080x1920 is a practical working size rather than a mandatory upload requirement.

WhatsApp automatically compresses images sent as photos. To preserve full quality, resize your image to the target dimensions first, which gives WhatsApp's compressor the best starting point, or send the image as a Document instead of a Photo, this bypasses compression entirely and delivers the exact file you selected.

WhatsApp static stickers must be 512x512 pixels in WebP format and under 100 KB. Leave a 16-pixel transparent margin around the artwork. This tool exports a 512x512 PNG and shows a margin guide in the preview. The guide does not add a margin to your image. Convert the PNG to WebP and check its final size before use.

Not on this page. This tool only offers the five fixed WhatsApp presets above, there's no custom dimension field here. If you need an exact size that isn't one of these five, use the general resize tool, which lets you type any width and height.

Cropped, not stretched. If your source image doesn't already match a preset's aspect ratio, for example a landscape photo resized to the vertical Status size, the tool scales it up to cover the target completely and trims the excess evenly from the edges. Nothing is distorted, and no padding is added.

Profile Photo, Status, Chat Image and Business Catalog output JPEG. The Sticker preset outputs PNG, which can preserve transparency if your source image has it. A solid background will remain solid.

Only the Sticker preset can preserve source transparency because it outputs PNG. The other four presets output JPEG, which cannot preserve transparency. The sticker preset does not create a transparent margin for you.

Yes. After downloading one size, choose "Try another size" to generate a different preset from the same image without re-uploading. Useful for producing a profile photo and a status image from a single source photo in one session.

No. The Sticker preset resizes your image to the correct 512x512 pixel dimensions, but it doesn't check or enforce a file size limit. WhatsApp's own 100KB sticker requirement applies to the final WebP file, so check the size after you convert the downloaded PNG to WebP, and compress further if needed.

The tool upscales it to reach the target size and shows a warning above the result. Upscaling stretches existing pixels rather than adding new detail, so the result may look softer than a native-resolution image. For the sharpest result, start from the highest-resolution version of your photo.

No. The image is decoded to raw pixels and re-encoded during resizing, so EXIF metadata, including GPS location, does not carry over to the downloaded file, for any of the five presets.

No. Resizing and cropping happen entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your image is never sent anywhere.

JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and HEIC are all accepted as input. What you get back depends on which preset you choose, JPEG for Profile, Status, Chat and Catalog, PNG for Sticker.
