What 4:5 is, and what it costs
Four by five is portrait without being full-screen. It is the tallest shape a feed will show without cropping it back, so it takes more of the screen than a square while still leaving room for the caption and the buttons underneath.
The crop from 16:9 is moderate: 1080 x 1350 keeps a 864-pixel column of a 1920-wide frame, drawn 1.25 times larger. Faces survive it comfortably; wide screen recordings do not.
It is the shape to pick when the video is a feed POST rather than a full-screen story. For full-screen, go to 9:16 instead, and for anything landing in a grid, square.
One practical warning: 4:5 and 9:16 look similar in a thumbnail and behave differently in a feed. A 9:16 post gets letterboxed or cropped back by anything that expects a post rather than a story, so if you are unsure which one the destination wants, 4:5 is the shape that survives both.

Crop to 4:5: questions
What is the difference between 4:5 and 9:16?
4:5 is a tall post; 9:16 is the whole screen. A 4:5 video leaves room for the caption and the buttons under it, which is why feeds prefer it and stories do not.
What size is a 4:5 video?
1080 x 1350, which is what this page sets.
What if my subject is not in the middle?
This tool crops from the centre, so it keeps the middle of the picture. If the subject sits to one side, open the clip in the full REQO editor, move the picture inside the new frame and export from there. That is free too.
Is cropping free?
Yes. Crop and preview for free, then create a free account to download.
