Frequently asked questions

Why is my cover photo cropped on mobile?

Phones show a narrower, taller crop than desktop. Keep important text and faces near the centre so they survive both views.

Where should I put text on a cover photo?

Keep text and faces in the central safe area that stays visible on every device. The edges are cut on phones, so avoid placing logos near them.

Where does my profile picture overlap the cover?

The profile photo sits over a corner or lower part of the cover on some layouts. Leave that area free of important details.
