Frequently asked
What size is an Instagram carousel?+
Instagram recommends 1080×1350 pixels (4:5 portrait) — that’s exactly what Caruva exports. Square 1080×1080 also works; Caruva supports both, plus 9:16 for stories.
How many slides can an Instagram carousel have?+
Instagram allows up to 20 slides per carousel post. Caruva generates the structure that performs best (usually 5–8 slides) and lets you add, remove and reorder slides freely.
Can I use my own photos?+
Yes — upload your photos and Caruva designs the carousel around them, or mix your photos with AI-generated slides. Great for products, food and personal brands.
Is there a watermark?+
Free previews carry a light watermark. Any paid plan (from €9/month) exports clean, full-resolution slides.
Do carousels still perform well on Instagram?+
Yes — carousels consistently earn more saves, shares and time-on-post than single images because every swipe counts as engagement. A strong hook slide and a clear CTA slide matter most; Caruva writes both for you.
