How it works

From page to cover photo in three steps

01

Describe it

Type what your page is about and the feel you want. The preset sets the cover size automatically.

02

Snappa generates it

A finished cover with the message centered where desktop and mobile crops overlap.

03

Refine it your way

Type what to change, or brush a spot that’s hard to describe. New scene, new tagline, new palette.

Prompt

Cover photo for a family bakery page, warm sourdough loaves, morning light, tagline “Fresh sourdough, daily.”

Fresh sourdough, daily
edit: “Add flour dust in the light”

Built to spec

One cover, both crops.

Facebook shows one image two ways: a wide 820 x 312 letterbox on desktop and a taller, tighter cut on phones. Most covers lose their message to one or the other. Snappa composes for the overlap, so the cover works everywhere your page is seen.

  • Both crops covered. Desktop letterbox and taller mobile cut.
  • Center-safe message. The tagline lives where both survive.
  • Exact spec. 820 x 312 desktop, mobile-safe center.

Ridge Coffee · logo reference

Your logo in. A cover that fits the page out.

Brand matching

A page that looks open for business.

Your cover is the first proof your business is alive and cared for. Describe your colors and style, add your logo as a reference, or start from one of your own designs, and the cover comes out looking like the rest of your page.

Readable type

Say the useful thing.

Hours, tagline, this month’s offer. Snappa renders them clean and readable, so the cover answers questions before visitors scroll.

Hours, tagline, offer. Text your visitors can actually read.

Four seasons, four covers, each one a single prompt.

Refresh

A new season is one sentence.

A stale cover reads like a closed shop. When updating it takes seconds, you can swap in the holiday hours, the summer patio, or the Valentine’s pre-orders, and keep the page feeling current all year.

The craft

What makes a cover photo work

Center

Live in the overlap

Desktop shows the edges, mobile cuts them. The safe message lives in the middle.

Fresh

Date-stamp nothing

An outdated cover signals an abandoned page. Keep it current or keep it timeless.

Useful

Answer one question

Hours, location, or what you sell. The cover is a sign, not a mural.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is a Facebook cover photo?
Facebook displays covers at 820 x 312 on desktop and crops to roughly 640 x 360 on phones, so the safe zone is the shared center. Snappa’s preset composes for both automatically. Need the whole social set? Start at social media graphics.
Why does my cover look cut off on mobile?
Phones show a taller, narrower slice of the same image, so anything near the left and right edges disappears. Keep the message centered and both crops work. Snappa does this composition for you.
Can I put text on my cover photo?
Yes, and it’s a good idea: hours, a tagline, or a current offer. Snappa renders it clean and readable, inside the crop-safe zone.
How is Snappa different from AI image generators like Midjourney?
Those tools make art at random sizes with no idea where Facebook crops. Snappa generates at the right spec with your message centered in the zone both crops keep.
Is Snappa free?
Yes. Sign up free and put Snappa to work on your page. The free plan includes 10 credits a month and every feature, and you can upgrade to Pro anytime.
