Facebook Group Cover Resize
A Facebook group cover is the wide banner displayed at the very top of a group page, with a recommended size of 1640×856px (roughly 1.91:1 ratio). It offers a higher-resolution canvas than the profile cover (820×312px), but mobile crops the top and bottom significantly, showing only the center area. The group name and member count overlay the lower portion, so place text and logos near the top. This tool crops and resizes your image to 1640×856px and saves it as JPG instantly.

FAQ
Is the group cover a different size from the profile cover?
Yes. The profile cover is 820×312px while the group cover is 1640×856px. Even when reusing the same image, resize separately for each to ensure a clean display.
Can I put group rules or announcements on the cover?
You can, but the group name and member count overlay the lower portion. Place text in the upper or center area for better readability.
What is the minimum upload size for a group cover?
The minimum width is 400px, but uploading at 1640×856px ensures the image stays sharp on high-resolution displays.
How does the group cover get cropped on mobile?
Mobile crops the top and bottom significantly, showing only the center area. The sides also narrow slightly, so place key elements at the very center of the image.
Is there a file size limit for group cover images?
You can upload up to 30MB. In practice, a JPG of 2–5MB or less loads quickly while maintaining good image quality.
