💡 For best results, start with an image at least as wide as the target size. Upscaling small images can introduce blur.

Threads profile picture size: the 2026 spec
This guide covers the official spec, format requirements, and the practical workflow imgsize.cc uses to get it right in your browser.
Why these dimensions
Threads profile pictures render at 320×320 on the profile page and 40×40 in the feed. The recommended upload is 320×320. Threads is connected to Instagram, so your Instagram avatar can be reused.
Crop the central content of your image to the central 80% of the frame. Threads Profile may crop or overlay UI elements near the edges, so critical content should stay well within the safe zone.
Common mistakes
Off-center subject — weird at 40×40
Text in the corners — illegible at thumbnail
Frequently asked questions
Can I sync with my Instagram avatar?
Yes. Threads offers a one-click Instagram sync for profile picture.
How imgsize.cc handles it
Drop your source image into the workbench above. The crop box defaults to a 1:1 aspect ratio. Resize, crop, and download as a 320×320 pixel PNG — all in your browser, no upload required.
