About the Facebook group cover photo size

A Facebook Group cover photo is 1640 by 856 pixels, the same 1.91:1 shape as a Page cover but a taller canvas. The catch is that desktop only reveals the centre 662 pixels of that height, while mobile shows the cover at its full 856 pixels, so anything you need seen on both, a group name, a rule, a logo, belongs in that shared centre band rather than near the top or bottom edge. Export as PNG if the cover carries text or a graphic, JPG for a photo, and keep the file under 2 MB.
