Threads is built as a mobile-first conversations platform. Vertical 4:5 images consume more screen height in the feed, giving your posts maximum visibility and higher click-through rates as users scroll.
Common mistake: A common mistake is using low-resolution landscape images, which render very small in the feed. Crop to 4:5 at 1080x1350 to maximize your post real estate.
