Instagram ad mockup generator

1. Upload the creative. Choose or drop an image or a video. Videos play in the preview. The file is read in your browser and never leaves your device.
2. Add the account details. Upload a profile picture and type the brand name. Instagram layouts show it as a single lowercase handle, so the mockup does the same.
3. Write the caption and pick a button. Type the primary text (Instagram shows it as the caption), then choose a call-to-action button and, for Facebook placements, a headline and description.
4. Switch placements. Instagram Feed opens first. Stories and Reels show a full-screen 9:16 card, and the Facebook layouts are one click away. Turn on "Show safe zone" to see which parts of a Stories or Reels creative the interface can cover.
5. Save it. Pick a light or dark screen, keep or remove the phone frame, and download a PNG at 2x resolution to share for feedback or sign-off.

The small label under the handle can read Ad or Sponsored. Meta is replacing Sponsored with Ad gradually, so the mockup offers both.

Caption and headline lengths are recommendations: longer text may be truncated, and cut further on some placements and devices. The image ratio range, file size and minimum width are technical requirements.

For Instagram Feed images, 1:1 also works, but 4:5 fills more of the screen, which is why Meta recommends it. Stories and Reels also accept 1.91:1, 16:9, 1:1 and 4:5 (Reels adds 2:3), but Meta recommends 9:16 so the ad fills the screen.

The same numbers for Facebook placements, plus carousel and collection specs, are in our Meta ads specs guide.

• Lead with the reason to tap. In Feed, the handle comes first on the caption line, then your text, then "more". Meta recommends 125 characters, but a phone may show fewer, so the first few words matter most.
• Write Reels captions like a headline. Meta recommends 44 characters for Instagram Reels. That is one short sentence; anything after it is hidden.
• Put the offer on the creative for Stories and Reels. Meta lists no headline for Instagram Stories or Reels, so a price, discount or deadline that lives only in a headline field may not be seen there.
• Hashtags go last. Feed ads allow up to 30, but each one spent before the cut is a word of your message that gets pushed behind "more".
• Pick a button that matches the page. Shop now for a product page, Sign up for a form, Book now for a booking page. Which buttons you can use depends on your objective, placement and industry.

1. Keep key elements inside the safe zone. For 9:16 Stories and Reels ads, Meta suggests leaving roughly 14% at the top, 35% at the bottom and 6% on each side free of text, logos and key elements, so the profile icon and button do not cover them. For Feed ads in 1:1 or 4:5, keep the bottom and side edges clear.
2. Treat 9:16 feed video like a Reel. 9:16 video ads in Instagram Feed follow the same safe zone guidance as Reels and Stories. The mockup shows the center 4:5 of a 9:16 video in Feed, because Meta does not publish how much appears before someone taps.
3. Plan for tall screens. On phones taller than 9:16, Meta may zoom the creative, which crops outside the safe zone, or show it at 9:16 with black space around it.
4. Leave room for disclaimers. If a Reels ad carries a disclaimer, Meta recommends keeping the bottom 40% free of text, logos and other key elements.
5. Check light and dark mode. Switch the mockup's screen to dark and make sure a white product or white text still stands out.
6. Confirm in Ads Manager. The mockup is for drafts and approvals. The preview in Meta Ads Manager, including any automatic crops, is what will run.

To make the creative, Image Ads in CamClo AI turns a product photo into finished image ads sized for the placement you choose: 4:5 for Instagram Feed, 9:16 for Stories and Reels, or 1:1. You can make a single image or a carousel and add text on the image.

To run it, Ad Autopilot plans, publishes and manages Meta and Google Ads campaigns within limits you set: campaigns publish paused for your review, budget changes move in steps of 20% or less, spending never goes over your daily and monthly caps, and bigger moves wait for your approval.
