Facebook Profile Picture Size: 170×170

Facebook displays your profile picture as a circle at 170×170 on desktop and 128×128 on mobile. Upload square and centered to look right at both.

170 × 170
Facebook's desktop profile picture display size. Mobile shows it slightly smaller at 128×128 — uploading a clean square keeps it sharp at both, and everywhere else it's shown smaller (comments, chat).

Like most platforms, Facebook takes a square upload and crops it into a circle everywhere it's displayed — from tiny comment avatars up to the larger size on your profile page. Uploading square and centered from the start avoids an off-center or stretched result.

Step by step

Open Squeezr and drop in your photo or logo.

Turn on Resize, unlock the aspect-ratio lock, and set width and height to 320 × 320 — larger than the 170×170 display size, for crispness on retina screens.

Choose Crop mode so the full square fills the frame — remember it's shown as a circle, so keep your subject centered.

Export as JPG or PNG at 85–90% quality.

Upload it as your Facebook profile picture.

Skip the manual math — open Squeezr with this preset already dialed in.

Why upload larger than 170×170?

Facebook displays your profile picture at various sizes across the platform, and a source image larger than the display size stays sharp on high-density phone and laptop screens. 320×320 is a safe upload size that scales down cleanly everywhere Facebook needs it.

Same square, works for personal profiles and Pages

This sizing applies whether you're setting a personal profile picture or a Facebook Page's profile picture — both use the same square-cropped-to-circle display logic, so there's no need for a different size between the two.
