Good to know
- The help page lists 16:9 for computers and 2.4:1 for mobile devices but names a single fastest loading file, 851 x 315 pixels, for both. This tool exports that file.
- Facebook does not publish a safe area rectangle for covers, so this tool draws none. It only states that the profile picture overlaps the cover by about 40 pixels on mobile.
