Your excellent grid in your Instagram profile would possibly quickly be gone — if it is not already.
Instagram is rolling an enormous change this weekend: rectangles instead of squares. That means your fastidiously curated grid could possibly be a large number as the size of the content material shift in your profile.
“I know some of you really like your squares. And square photos are sort of the heritage of Instagram,” Instagram chief Adam Mosseri stated in an Instagram story. “But at this point, most of what’s uploaded, both photos and videos, are vertical in their orientation. And it just is a bummer to overly crop them. I know it’s a change. I know it’s a bit of a pain, but I think it’s a transitional pain.”

That change is seemingly creating some havoc already on grids all over the place. What as soon as was an ideal picture created by squares is a jumbled mess. Lots of of us seen their favourite artists’ Insta pages now seemed odd, for example.
Instagram has been warning of this alteration for a while now. It started testing vertical grids in August and now it seems the change is de facto coming for everybody.
