How to use this result
Start with the target surface: a printed size, a platform canvas, a marketplace image requirement, or a safe-zone overlay. Enter the real pixel dimensions or upload a local image when the tool supports it, then compare the result with the recommended size, ratio, file-size limit, and source note.
Use the copied output as a production checklist rather than as an approval guarantee. The calculator checks measurable dimensions and ratios, while final acceptance can still depend on compression, color, account settings, crop previews, platform policy, or printer-specific export instructions.
FAQ
Is this exact for every app?
No. Device UI, app version and caption length vary. Use it as a conservative reference.
