FAQ
?What is an aspect ratio?
An aspect ratio is the proportional relationship between the width and the height of an image or video screen. It is typically expressed as two numbers separated by a colon, such as 16:9.
?Why is maintaining aspect ratio important?
If you resize an image without locking the aspect ratio, the image will appear stretched, squished, or distorted. Maintaining the ratio ensures the image looks natural.
?What are the most common aspect ratios?
16:9 is standard for HD video and most monitors. 4:3 is common for older TVs and some tablets. 1:1 is a perfect square used on platforms like Instagram. 9:16 is vertical video (TikTok, Reels, Shorts).
