Show approximate interface overlay

Guide margins: 14% top, 35% bottom, 6% left, 16% right for action buttons. A conservative visual guide, not exact Instagram UI.

What this checks

Dimensions, aspect ratio, file size, and duration come from your file. The overlay helps you inspect text and logos yourself; it does not detect them automatically.

A preview, not a promise

Instagram’s interface and crops vary by device, placement, and app version. These are approximate guides. Confirm your cover and text placement in Instagram before publishing. Frame rate, audio, codec, and eligibility are not checked.
