What is the best size for my background image?
For the background image, we recommend using a file with the following dimensions:
Canvas size:
1260 x 2120pxSafe area size:
1104 x 1856px(centered in the canvas,78pxfrom the left / right edge,132pxfrom the top / bottom edge)
Alternatively, design your content with a 69:116 aspect ratio.
Why is my image zoomed in?
Background images are zoomed in about 14%. The reason is to create a "safe area" so that the image remains full screen on a wide variety of phone sizes. For tall phones more of the top and bottom of the image will be shown. For wider devices, users will see more of the left and right of the image. Preview the various phone sizes with the toggle under the page canvas.
How do the image adjustments work?
Use the adjustment slider to move the image within the background. This allows you to be more specific on the parts of the image you want to show.
Do I have to put in a description?
Image descriptions are not mandatory, but are a great way of boosting your SEO and improve the accessibility of your Story.
