Why preview an Instagram profile before changing it?

Your profile is where people decide whether to follow you. A mockup lets you test a new bio, profile photo, highlight names or grid layout without changing your live account, and share the options with your team or a client before you commit.

Why are the grid thumbnails 3:4 and not square?

Instagram switched the profile grid from square tiles to taller 3:4 tiles in 2025. Your posts aren't changed, but the grid shows a 3:4 crop from the centre of each one. That means the left and right edges of square posts are hidden on your profile, so it's worth checking how your images crop.

How long can an Instagram bio be?

The bio can be up to 150 characters, and you can use line breaks and emojis. Lead with what you do and who it's for, and end with a clear next step, such as a link or a keyword people can comment or DM you.

Can I upload my own posts for the grid?

Yes. Upload up to 12 images and they appear in order, newest first, cropped to 3:4 tiles. The images stay in your browser and are never uploaded to a server.

Is it okay to mock up someone else's profile?

Use the tool for your own account, a client's account with their permission, or a made-up sample brand. Don't use mockups to impersonate a person or brand, fake follower numbers or suggest an endorsement that doesn't exist.

What should my bio ask people to do?

Give one clear action. “Comment SHOP on any post for the link” works well with Hypello, which sends an automatic DM with the link to everyone who comments the keyword. You can also point people to your link, or invite them to DM you and let an AI agent answer their questions and collect their details.

Test your profile without touching your account

Your profile does a lot of work in a few seconds. Visitors glance at the photo, the bio, the highlights and the top rows of the grid, then decide whether to follow, tap your link or leave. Changing these on your live account to see what works is slow and public. A mockup lets you try ideas privately and compare them side by side.

The generator follows the mobile app's layout: username bar, profile photo with story ring, post and follower counts, name, category, bio and link, the action buttons, highlights, the grid tabs and the post grid. Switch to the visitor view to see the Follow and Message buttons other people see.

The 3:4 profile grid

Since 2025 Instagram shows profile thumbnails as 3:4 rectangles instead of squares. Square posts lose a strip on each side in the grid, and 4:5 posts lose a little at the top and bottom. Upload your next few posts here to make sure text and faces aren't cut off.

Use the mockup for your own account, a client's account with permission, or a sample brand. Don't use it to impersonate someone or fake follower numbers.
