Adding images to a social post

Add images from your Library, choose images from the Stock Image Gallery, or use Canva to design images for your social post

No two social media platforms are exactly the same, but they all allow images in posts! Your images are what draw your friends and followers' eyes, encouraging them to engage further with your post content, so you want them to be both striking and relevant.

Image limits within a social post

Each social platform treats images a little bit differently, and the number of images that you can include in one social post varies:

• Facebook - 30 images, and images can be JPEG, PNG, or GIF
• Instagram - 10 images, and images can be JPEG, PNG, or GIF
• LinkedIn - 20 images, and images can be JPEG, PNG, or GIF
• TikTok - 35 images, and images must be JPEG. If you have an image-only post, you can also include music.

Did you know? There are different image sizes and ratios that are ideal for each social media platform, too!
