Auto-fit to 1080×1920px for YouTube
The YouTube Shorts size is 1080×1920 pixels, an aspect ratio of 9:16. This is the recommended dimension for Short vertical videos on YouTube. Vertical 9:16, same as Reels and TikTok. This tool resizes any image to exactly 1080×1920px in your browser — you can zoom, reposition, and choose whether to fill the frame (cropping edges) or fit the whole image (adding whitespace), then download a perfectly-sized PNG.
To resize an image for YouTube: upload your image above, use the zoom and position sliders to frame it inside the 1080×1920px area, choose Fill (to crop and fill the whole frame) or Fit (to keep the entire image with white padding), and download. The result is exactly 1080×1920px — the correct YouTube Shorts size — so it uploads to YouTube without any awkward cropping. Everything happens in your browser, so your image is never uploaded to a server.
For the best YouTube Shorts: start with a high-resolution image so it stays sharp at 1080×1920px, keep important content (faces, text, logos) in the center safe zone, and export as PNG for crisp edges or JPEG for smaller file size. Vertical 9:16, same as Reels and TikTok. Using the exact 9:16 ratio prevents YouTube from auto-cropping your image in unexpected ways, which is the most common reason posts look wrong after uploading.
