Depop is mobile-first and forces a 1:1 crop on your primary tile, so a square export is the only shape that survives. Drop your photos below to resize them to 1080 × 1080, framed the way you want, compressed and ready to list.
On iPhone/iPad, "Download all" may open the images instead of saving a ZIP — save them one by one from the preview (long-press → Save to Photos / Files).
Depop's feed is a grid of squares, and the platform crops your primary photo to 1:1 automatically — which is why photos framed for a portrait phone screen lose their edges. Exporting as a 1080 × 1080 square yourself means you decide what gets cropped, not the app.
The other Depop-specific trap is your framing: because buyers scroll on a phone, keep the item centred with breathing room around it, and use Pad mode if the garment would otherwise be cut in half. If you are shooting flat-lays, Crop mode fills the tile and looks bolder.
One thing most sellers get wrong: every one of these platforms re-compresses your photo on upload — Vinted re-encodes around quality 75, Depop around 80, Poshmark around 78 — and downsamples anything above their maximum. A 4 MB iPhone original therefore arrives looking softer than a pre-optimised file. Resizing to the platform's own ceiling and compressing to 250–450 KB before uploading means their pipeline barely touches your photo, and your thumbnails stay crisp.

1080 × 1080 px, square (1:1). Depop is mobile-first and crops your primary tile to a square, so exporting square yourself gives you control over what survives.
No — Depop rewards styled, lifestyle-looking photos rather than catalogue white. Use your own background, or pick a padding colour that matches it if you pad to square.
Yes. Drop up to 40 photos, set the crop once, tick “Apply to all photos”, and download everything as a ZIP.
