Your images never leave your browser
All processing happens locally on your device. Nothing is uploaded to a server, stored, or tracked.
Instagram Stories display full-screen at 1080x1920 on modern phones. If your image is smaller, upscaling softens the result. Export at 1080x1920 from the largest source you have for the sharpest story.
