How it works

1

Drop your video in — landscape, portrait, or anything in between.

2

WavyVid scales and center-crops it to fill the target frame exactly, no letterboxing or stretching.

3

Download the resized video, ready to post.

Square video still gets more feed real estate than landscape on mobile, which is why it's a common choice for Instagram feed posts and some ad formats. This crops in from whichever side is longer (usually the sides of a landscape clip) to fill the square exactly.

Frequently asked questions

Which side gets cropped for a landscape video?

The left and right edges are cropped in evenly to create a centered square from your landscape frame. If your subject is off-center, check the preview before downloading.

What resolution is the square output?

1080×1080 — a standard, widely-supported square resolution.

Is this good for Instagram feed specifically, or does it work elsewhere?

It works anywhere a square video is useful — Instagram feed, some LinkedIn placements, and square ad units — not just one specific platform.

Can I resize a portrait (9:16) video to square too?

Yes — the same center-crop logic applies regardless of your source's original aspect ratio.
