Instagram Just Fixed the Grid! New Ratios, FREE Templates + Design Tips with Canva [Tutorial]

Instagram changed again and this time, it might actually be good news. In this video, I’ll show you what’s new, whether you should switch to the 3:4 size or still use the square post on Instagram, and how to design posts for Instagram that still look great (even if your profile hasn’t updated yet). I’ll also walk you through the differences in Canva and give you free templates to make the whole thing way easier. It's the continuation of the new Instagram grid updates from January 2025. 📋 FREE TEMPLATES TO DOWNLOAD: FREE Instagram Post Template: https://natalia.link/instagram-post-template FREE Instagram Reel Template: https://natalia.link/instagram-reel-template FREE Instagram Sizing Cheatsheet: https://natalia.link/instagram-size-cheatsheet Sign up for my upcoming Canva course: https://go.nataliakalinska.com/canva-course 🤗 SUBSCRIBE FOR NEW VIDEOS EVERY WEEK: https://natalia.link/SUBSCRIBE ⬅️ ⏩ Get CANVA PRO for FREE for 30 DAYS 🤯 https://natalia.link/canva ⏪ 👇 WATCH THESE NEXT Build a STRONG MARKETING STRATEGY in 2024! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npgdIeLiLdY&list=PLr0AH9BnVNJPpWP3UIsLuJ6EM7NfaXlRQ&index=1 FULL CANVA TUTORIAL FOR BEGINNERS 2025 https://youtu.be/bFT2mSQ6HZc Learn even more about Canva: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFT2mSQ6HZc&list=PLr0AH9BnVNJMg_BPSiqKxpamzx2lJ6KUg&ab_channel=NataliaKalinska ⏳ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - Intro 00:30 - Old vs New Instagram Grid Explained 01:43 - New Instagram Post & Reel Dimensions 03:25 - How to Adjust Thumbnails for the New Grid [Instagram Tips] 04:16 - Canva Tutorial to Design Instagram Posts for New Grid 10:52 - More Instagram Updates to the Grid Announced LET’S GET SOCIAL: 💻 My website & blog: https://www.nataliakalinska.com 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nataliakalinska 📌 Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/kalinskanatalia ⏰ TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@kalinskanatalia 🤗 SUBSCRIBE FOR NEW VIDEOS EVERY WEEK: https://natalia.link/SUBSCRIBE ⬅️ WHO I AM: I'm Natalia, a Canva Verified Expert and content marketing strategist from Poland, living in Edinburgh, Scotland.
