Instagram is all about vertical content, and that might mean changing the look of your profile grid.
A few days ago, Instagram head Adam Mosseri posted a story on his app detailing a change we’ve seen coming since at least 2022.
“We’re actually testing a vertical grid, for those of you who haven’t seen it yet, for your profile, instead of squares,” Mosseri said. This follows a November 2022 post on X from reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi showing just how Instagram might change the aspect ratio of your profile grid. While that might sound like a visual nightmare, screenshots Paluzzi got his hands on don’t actually look very bad.
