What quality percentage should I use?

80% quality provides an excellent balance of visual quality and file size for social media. Go higher (90-100%) for photography portfolios, or lower (60-70%) if fast loading is your priority.

Can I use this for Instagram Stories or Reels?

Yes. Change the dimensions to 1080×1920 (9:16 ratio) for Stories and Reels. The default 1080×1080 is optimized for feed posts.
