Peeps, i need help

[Evilguppy]

Currently, my photos are rectangular and when I post them on IG, I get a square duplicate which takes a lot of room. I forgot which settings I need to get into to change the pics format to square so it matches IG and won't crowd my storage space with a duplicate. It's a royal PITA to constantly have to delete the duplicates.

Well, I'm not sure about IG's requirements, but at the top of your camera's screen you'll see a ratio in vertical brackets (3:4, 9:16, 1:1) (9:16 is the full screen size, 3:4 is still a rectangle but much shorter and what I use and 1:1 is obviously square) hope that helps! Experiment!!!

Oh doodie, I'm really dumb sometimes. Thanks!

To stop creating duplicate photos go to settings, account, original posts and toggle the switch. This is in the Instagram app I am talking about.
