How a highlight cover works

A circle cut from a tall picture.

Highlights show as circles under the bio. Each cover is a 9:16 picture, and Instagram shows the circle in its middle, so the maker keeps the icon there.

General guidance

A highlight row that looks planned.

Six habits for highlight covers. They are general guidance, and how the row looks on your own profile is the test.

01

Pick one style for all

The same colour, icon weight and size on every cover makes the row look planned.

02

Match your brand colour

Use the colour from your logo or shop front so the profile feels like your place.

One icon per topic

An icon says what is inside before anyone taps: hours, menu, reviews.

04

Keep names short

Long highlight names are cut under the circle. One or two words read best.

05

Order by what people ask

Put the highlight people need most first: often prices, hours or where to find you.

Questions

Questions about highlight covers.

Sizes, adding a cover, and the icon set.

What size is an Instagram highlight cover?
1080 × 1920 pixels, the same 9:16 shape as a Story. Instagram shows a circle cut from the middle, so the maker centres the icon there.
How do I add a cover to a highlight?
Open your profile, press and hold the highlight, choose Edit highlight, then Edit cover, and pick the picture from your phone.
Can I use the icons for my business?
Yes. The icon set is drawn for ProfileScan and free to use on your highlight covers.
Why are there no emoji?
Emoji look different on every phone. The icons here are drawn as lines, so every cover looks the same everywhere.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The covers are drawn by your browser and saved on your device.
How do I get all five at once?
Press All five, ZIP. You get one ZIP file with five PNG covers, named in order.
