What 1080×2340 adds beyond a 1080×1920 story
Story, Spotlight, and the ad image share 1080×1920. The geofilter is 1080×2340, so a story export leaves a gap at the top and bottom of the filter.
A 1080×1920 story is 420 pixels short of 1080×2340. Stretching the story until it fills the filter pulls the picture. It does not add a clean band.
The profile icon is 320×320. It is not a frame from the story and not a crop of the geofilter.
How to stretch an image for a Snapchat frame
Story, Spotlight, and the ad image on this page share 1080×1920. The geofilter is taller, and the profile icon is a small square.
- Step 1
Open the full-screen still
1080×1920 is the story file. A square selfie stretched to that height lengthens the face, which reads immediately on a snap.
- Step 2
Pick the Snapchat row
Story, Spotlight, and Ad Image are 1080×1920. Geofilter is 1080×2340. Profile icon is 320×320.
- Step 3
Geofilter is a longer phone screen
1080×2340 is taller than the story by 420 pixels. A story file stretched down to 2340 pulls the picture. It does not add a clean empty band.
- Step 4
Keep the profile separate
320×320 is the icon. Export it as PNG if it is a mark. Do not shrink the story and call it the icon.
Snapchat files that share 1080 wide and then diverge
Width matches. Height is the decision.
Story
1080×1920. Full screen. The caption tools sit on top, so leave an edge.
Spotlight and ad image
Also 1080×1920 on this chart. The pixels match the story. The ad still has to pass Snap’s own placement rules, which this stretch does not check.
Geofilter
1080×2340. Taller than the story by 420 pixels. Stretching a 1920-tall file to 2340 is a visible pull.
Profile icon
320×320. A circle crop in the app. Corners go away.
Faces
A snap that is mostly a face should be cropped into 1080×1920, not stretched. The stretch is for graphics and scenes that can absorb the warp.
Why stretch for Snapchat with ImageStretcher
Geofilters are taller than Stories
A Story is 1080×1920. A Geofilter is 1080×2340 so it can cover a taller phone. The Story file does not fill the Geofilter.
Story chrome covers both ends
On a Story, the name sits at the top and the reply bar sits at the bottom. Keep faces and type in the middle of the 1080×1920 frame.
Ads use the Story frame
An ad image on this page is 1080×1920, the same shape as a Story, not a landscape banner.
The profile icon is small
The profile icon is 320×320 and Snapchat shows it as a small circle. Corners of the square file are not visible.
Formats and limits for Snapchat stretching
Download JPEG for a photographic Snapchat story. Download PNG for a 1080×2340 geofilter graphic and for the 320×320 profile icon.
A geofilter with a hard edge or flat shapes belongs in PNG at 1080×2340. A photographic story at 1080×1920 can be JPEG.
Even scaling never turns 1080×1920 into 1080×2340. Save the story and the filter as two files.
420 pixels the story does not have
The tall version of this drawing still stops at story height. A geofilter needs another 420 pixels, and the wide version fits neither.
The profile icon is 320×320. Shrinking the story is how that icon gets muddy.
