Facebook is Changing Mobile Media Aspect Ratio and Text
Posted by Meredith Bardsley on 22 July 2019 05:13 pm |
With all the focus being placed on mobile, here are some important changes that are coming for mobile devices. Facebook is changing the mobile media aspect ratio. This is the proportional relationship between the width and the height for both photos and videos which are shown in the news feed on mobile devices. Additionally, Facebook is limiting the amount of text that is shown in a mobile news feed post. Here are the new specs you need to be aware of if you’re optimizing posts for Mobile Facebook Newsfeeds.
Facebook says these changes are “designed to simplify our formats and improve the consistency of our mobile experience.” These changes will be effective on August 19th, 2019. It might not seem like a big change, but as mentioned above, with the majority of users being mobile users, it will change their experience, so it’s important to think about how text and photos are formatted going forward. This allows for a few weeks of adjusting to formatting media shorter, and with fewer lines of text.
