Free Instagram Post Preview Generator — Feed, Story & Reel

Preview Instagram posts before publishing

The Instagram Post Preview Generator helps you visualize how your content will look across all three formats: Feed posts, Stories, and Reels. Each format has different dimensions and UI elements — see how your caption, profile photo, and image appear in the real Instagram layout before you publish.

Preview Stories and Reels in authentic format

Instagram Stories use a 9:16 vertical layout with a progress bar, profile info, and reaction buttons at the bottom. Reels display a sidebar of engagement icons and a caption overlay. Our generator renders all these details accurately so you can check how your creative looks on a real mobile screen before posting.
