Beyond Presets
When a preset isn't quite right, the canvas stays flexible.
Custom dimensions
Type any width and height in pixels. The canvas snaps to your numbers and rebuilds the preview so you can see the result immediately.
Aspect-ratio lock
Toggle the lock to keep width and height in proportion. Changing one value auto-updates the other — handy for scaling up a preset to 2× or 3× without distorting.
Swap dimensions
One click flips width and height. Turn a landscape Twitter post into a portrait Pinterest-style image, or a 1080×1920 Story into a 1920×1080 landscape frame, instantly.

When You Need This
Real scenarios where a built-in canvas preset saves time.
Posting a product update
A single launch announcement usually ships to Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and Product Hunt simultaneously. Picking the right preset for each means the image looks sharp in every feed — not cropped, not letterboxed.
YouTube thumbnails at 1280×720
YouTube's recommended thumbnail size is an exact 1280×720. Upload anything else and it gets rescaled — softening text and losing edge crispness. The preset nails the size on the first try.
Instagram Story vs. feed
Stories are 9:16 full-screen, feed posts are 1:1 or 4:5. Reformatting between them is annoying in most editors. Here you pick the preset, the canvas reshapes, and you reposition your content.
Open Graph images for links
Social link previews favor 1200×630 (Facebook Post preset) — used by LinkedIn, Facebook, Slack, and most blogging platforms. One preset covers OG images for almost every place a link gets shared.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which social media presets are included?
Twelve social presets ship in the app with exact platform pixel sizes: YouTube Thumbnail (1280×720), YouTube Banner (2560×1440), Instagram Square (1080×1080), Instagram Portrait (1080×1350), Instagram Story (1080×1920), Twitter/X Post (1200×675), Twitter/X Header (1500×500), LinkedIn Post (1200×627), Facebook Post (1200×630), Pinterest Pin (1000×1500), Dribbble Shot (1600×1200), and Product Hunt (1270×760).
What are the exact Instagram dimensions?
Three Instagram presets are included: Square at 1080×1080 (1:1, classic feed post), Portrait at 1080×1350 (4:5, taller feed post that takes more screen real estate), and Story at 1080×1920 (9:16, full-screen Stories and Reels cover). All three match Instagram's native upload sizes, so no cropping or compression happens on upload.
What sizes does YouTube need?
YouTube Thumbnail is 1280×720 (16:9, the thumbnail above every video in search results and recommendations). YouTube Banner is 2560×1440 — YouTube's recommended channel-art size. Both are included as one-click presets so you don't have to look up the numbers every time.
What's the difference between Twitter/X Post and Header?
Twitter/X Post is 1200×675 (16:9) — the size for images you attach to a tweet so they appear full-width in the timeline without cropping. Twitter/X Header is 1500×500 (3:1) — the banner image on your profile page. Both are separate presets.
Does it include LinkedIn and Facebook?
Yes. LinkedIn Post is 1200×627 — the size LinkedIn uses for link previews and single-image posts. Facebook Post is 1200×630 — Facebook's recommended feed image size and the standard for Open Graph previews when your link is shared. Both are common sizes, so the presets cover the vast majority of B2B and general social posting.
What are Pinterest Pin, Dribbble Shot, and Product Hunt for?
Pinterest Pin is 1000×1500 (2:3 portrait) — Pinterest favors tall vertical pins. Dribbble Shot is 1600×1200 (4:3) — Dribbble's recommended aspect ratio for portfolio shots. Product Hunt is 1270×760 — the gallery image size used on Product Hunt launch pages.
Can I enter custom dimensions if none of the presets fit?
Yes. Width and height inputs let you type any pixel values. Toggle the aspect-ratio lock to keep proportions in sync while editing (changing width auto-updates height and vice versa), or leave it unlocked to resize freely. A swap button flips width and height, instantly turning a portrait canvas into landscape.
How is this different from online design tools?
Online tools like Canva require uploads, accounts, and a network connection, and push watermarked exports unless you pay. Diwadi runs entirely on your desktop — no upload, no account, no watermark, no subscription. Pick a preset, set up your canvas, export a PNG, done. Works the same way on a plane or on a locked-down corporate network.
