What you need to know
Threads uses the same image dimension system as Instagram, which makes sense given they share the same Meta infrastructure. The 4:5 portrait format (1080×1350px) takes up the most screen real estate in the Threads feed. Square (1:1) and landscape (1.91:1) posts display smaller in-feed.
Unlike Instagram, Threads is a text-first platform — images are supplementary rather than primary. When you do include an image, it helps if the visual is simple and easy to understand quickly, especially alongside the post text.
Threads supports up to 10 images per post in a carousel format. All images in a carousel share the same aspect ratio (determined by the first image). The maximum file size is generous at 100MB per image, so compression artifacts shouldn't be an issue. Export at the full 1080px width for best quality.
