Instagram Story Maker — 9:16 full-screen, type and it's done
Make a full-screen Instagram Story at the exact 9:16: type a headline, pick a color theme, or drop a photo as the background and add text over it. Poster Cat lays it out at 1080×1920 and lets you place the text top, center, or bottom so it clears the profile bubble and the bottom bar.

Frequently asked questions
What size is an Instagram Story?
1080×1920 px, 9:16, full screen. The top ~250px and bottom ~250px can be covered by the profile bubble and the reply bar, so keep key text centered.
Can I use my own photo?
Yes. Drop a photo as the background, raise the overlay to darken it, then add text on top so it stays readable. The photo is composited locally and never uploaded.
Can it match my feed posts?
Yes — make a post first, then reuse the same theme and label on a story for a consistent set across your content.
