Free Instagram post maker

MyCanvasDesign's Instagram post maker opens a square 1080 × 1080 px page, ready for the feed, so you can add text, photos and icons and download a sharp PNG or JPG. There's no account to make and no watermark.

Quote cards, product launches, opening hours, a carousel that explains something step by step: posts like these are mostly words and one strong picture, which is exactly what the editor is good at.

How to make an Instagram post in MyCanvasDesign

  1. Open a square post

    Press Make an Instagram post and a 1080 × 1080 px page opens, the size Instagram shows in the feed.

  2. Add your words and pictures

    Write a short line in a big font, add a photo or one of over 2,000 icons, and pick colours that match your brand.

  3. Download and post

    Export a PNG for crisp text or a JPG for photos, send it to your phone, and post it from the Instagram app.

Instagram post sizes

The square preset is the classic feed post. Instagram's profile grid shows a taller crop of each post, so keep the important words near the middle.

  • Landscape post: 1080 × 566 px, typed in as your own size

Or type your own size on the dashboard, from 16 to 8,000 px on each side.

Why make your Instagram post with MyCanvasDesign

  • Free, with no watermark

    Download as many posts as you like. Nothing is stamped on them and there's no trial that runs out.

  • No sign-up

    Open the editor and start. Your work saves in your browser as you go, with no account and no email address.

  • Fast from anywhere

    The app is served from a global network, and your downloads are made on your own device, so there's no upload queue.

  • Sharp on every phone

    Download at 2× for a 2160 × 2160 px PNG, which Instagram scales down cleanly.

For creators and small shops

If you post for a small business, a club or yourself, you need posts that look consistent without a design degree. Start from the quote card example under Create new, keep your colours and fonts, and duplicate the design for each new post.

Everything stays in your browser, so drafts for next week are there when you come back on the same device.

Instagram post questions

What size is an Instagram post?

A square post is 1080 × 1080 px. A portrait post is 1080 × 1350 px (4:5); both open from the dashboard. Landscape posts are 1080 × 566 px; type that in as your own size.

How do I make an Instagram carousel?

Add a page for each slide in the pages panel, then export all pages as PNG or JPG. Upload them to Instagram in the same order.

Should I download PNG or JPG for Instagram?

PNG keeps text and flat colours crisp; JPG makes smaller files for photo-heavy posts. Both are free.

Is the Instagram post maker free?

Yes, with no watermark, no account and no limit on how many posts you make.

Can I make posts on my phone?

The editor works best on a laptop or tablet, where there is room for the canvas and its panels. Download there, then send the file to your phone to post.
