Scales and crops to fill exact size. No white space. No distortion. Recommended.

JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC. All processing stays in your browser.
Fill center-crops, Fit adds white padding, and Stretch changes proportions to force a vertical frame.
Use the JPEG quality slider when you want a smaller photographic output, or choose PNG.
Select JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC or HEIF. The dimensions stay locked at 720 × 1280.
Inspect the composition, upscaling warning and reported file size before saving.
Fill
Preserves proportions and center-crops opposite edges until the 720 × 1280 canvas is full.
Fit
Preserves the complete source and adds white space wherever its aspect ratio does not fill the vertical frame.
Stretch
Uses every source pixel but changes proportions, which can visibly distort recognizable subjects.
Use this exact size when your destination requests it, rather than assuming every platform uses the same dimensions.
Vertical asset requirements
Use when a site or internal system explicitly asks for a 720 × 1280 image.
Vertical cover images
Create consistent vertical images for people, products or records.
Mobile backgrounds
Prepare small vertical images for interfaces where fine detail is unnecessary.
Prototype assets
Generate exact placeholder or test assets for a 720-by-1280-pixel component.
The width and height inputs are locked to 720 and 1280 pixels. The default Fill mode preserves proportions and center-crops; Fit adds white padding; Stretch changes proportions.
JPEG starts at quality 85 and can be adjusted. PNG is also available. Settings changes reprocess the loaded source, and the tool warns when either target dimension exceeds the source.
Treating 720 × 1280 as a universal platform standard
Platform recommendations vary and change; use this preset when the destination explicitly needs it.
Using Fill with an off-center subject
The crop is centered and cannot be repositioned in this interface.
Using Stretch on faces or logos
Forcing a rectangle into a vertical frame changes proportions.
Expecting transparent Fit padding
Fit mode fills the unused canvas with white, including in PNG output.
Upscaling a tiny source
The output dimensions increase, but clarity and missing detail do not.
Assuming JPEG quality means a file-size target
The slider changes encoding quality but does not guarantee a particular KB value.
It is an exact 9:16 vertical canvas useful for cover images, mobile backgrounds, prototypes and systems that explicitly request 720 by 1280 pixels. It is not a universal Story, Reel, TikTok or Shorts requirement.
Fit keeps the whole image and adds white padding. Fill preserves proportions but center-crops the excess. Stretch forces the source into a vertical frame and can distort faces, logos and objects.
No. Fill mode crops around the center automatically. Use a dedicated crop tool first if the subject is off-center.
PNG can preserve transparent source pixels, but Fit mode paints the unused canvas white. Fill and Stretch do not add padding, though their transformation can still change the image composition.
The tool upscales it and displays a warning. The output reaches exactly 720 by 1280 pixels, but enlargement cannot recreate missing detail.
Yes. JPEG starts at quality 85 and provides an adjustable slider. PNG is lossless and does not show the JPEG quality control.
No. The tool accepts and downloads one image at a time. Settings changes reprocess the currently loaded source.
No. Decoding, resizing and encoding occur locally in your browser.
Choose the composition and format above, upload one image, and download the exact vertical frame.
