Depop's photography and curation guide recommends square framing for the app grid. It is an older guide, not a current technical upload specification. The current listing instructions distinguish app and web photo counts. Sources checked September 14, 2026.
Depop photo size at a glance
| Setting | What to use or check |
|---|---|
| Framing | Allow for a square (1:1) grid crop; preview the whole garment. |
| Export starting point | 1080 x 1080 px if the original has enough detail. This is our suggestion, not a Depop minimum or maximum. |
| Photo slots | Help Centre: app up to 4 photos plus 1 video; web up to 8 photos. Confirm in your editor. |
| File and upload limits | Use the current editor's accepted formats and error messages. The cited pages do not establish a pixel minimum or file-size cap. |
Prepare a listing photo without cutting off the item
- Start with the original. Avoid a screenshot of a screenshot. Keep the camera file so you can make a different crop later.
- Leave space around the product. Put the full garment inside a square crop, including sleeves, neckline and hem. Add plain space around a tall item instead of stretching it.
- Export one copy. If you use our 1080 x 1080 px starting point, do not enlarge a tiny source and expect new fabric detail. Retake a blurry photo.
- Check the editor and thumbnail. Look at the preview before posting. If something is cut off, adjust the crop or return to the original with more space.
A portrait source can still be useful. Do not discard it or assume that a 4:5 export is required. The safe test is whether your current listing preview shows the complete item clearly. For another platform, use its own guidance, such as the Poshmark photo size guide.
Give each listing photo a job
- Front: show the entire item against a background that makes its edges easy to see.
- Back: show the actual reverse side, especially prints, fastenings or different construction.
- Labels and detail: make the size, fabric texture and features readable.
- Condition: show stains, wear, repairs and other flaws with an original close-up. Extra editor slots can hold more useful views.

Depop photo size FAQ
What is the best photo size for Depop?
Keep a sharp original and prepare a square crop for the grid. A 1080 x 1080 px copy is a practical starting point suggested by PixFocal, not a verified Depop upload minimum. Check the crop and quality in your listing editor before publishing.
Does Depop crop my photos?
Depop's photography guide recommends square photos for the app grid. Preview the thumbnail and full listing in your current app or browser; do not assume one crop behaves identically on every screen. Leave room around the garment so sleeves and hems stay visible.
How many photos can I add to a Depop listing?
Depop's Help Centre currently describes up to four photos and one video in the app, and up to eight photos when listing on the web. Check the slots available in your editor. Use them to show the front, back, labels, details and any flaws.
Should I use styled or product-only photos on Depop?
Choose the presentation that shows the real item clearly. A styled or modelled image can show how you wear it; a flat lay or clean product photo can show its shape. Include original detail and condition photographs. Do not hide defects or use generated details as proof of the item's condition.
