More detail
  • JPEG, PNG, WebP or an iPhone photo, up to 25MB. The shorter side needs to be at least 1,200 pixels; any modern phone photo is fine.
  • Not allowed: stock photos, someone else's photo, or photos of people who haven't agreed to be shown.
  • We remove hidden information from the photo, like where it was taken, before saving it, and we don't keep your original file.
  • If our check has doubts, the photo goes to a person on our team. You can carry on with the other setup steps in the meantime.
  • To change it later, open Your photo from your dashboard: upload a new one, or just move the focus point.
