Frequently asked questions

What size is a WhatsApp profile picture?
WhatsApp displays profile photos as squares and accepts up to about 640×640, which is plenty for every place it appears.
Why does WhatsApp crop my photo?
A non-square photo has to be cropped to fit a square frame. Resize or crop to a square first and the framing is yours, not the app's.
Can I use a portrait photo?
Crop it to a square first — otherwise the top and bottom will be cut off automatically.
