YOU MIGHT HAVE NOTICED THAT FACEBOOK CHANGED THE GROUP COVER PHOTO SIZE ON NOVEMBER 27, 2017.

We’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time in recent weeks figuring out the ideal dimensions for Facebook Group, Page and Cover cover photos. Googling it results in a mass of conflicting recommendations – mainly out-of-date. Facebook finally announced the new size. Naturally, it crops differently on every device. (Why would Facebook make things easy?)

According to Facebook , the ideal size is 1,640px by 856px, or 1.91:1 ratio. For most devices.
