HubSpot’s recent mobile update adds an image cropping tool that enables marketers to easily modify social media images while drafting posts in the HubSpot mobile app. Whether you’re on iOS or Android, this feature helps you adjust your visuals for various platforms, ensuring your posts are polished and flawless.

 

What’s New?

With this update, you can now crop and adapt your social media images directly within the HubSpot mobile app:

  • iOS Users: Automatically correct Instagram aspect ratio errors with a simple cropping tool that appears whenever an image doesn’t fit.
  • Android Users: Crop any image for all social networks, including LinkedIn, Facebook, X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, without leaving the app.

 

Why Does This Matter?

Publishing social media content on the go is a must for busy marketers. With this update, your workflow becomes faster and smoother, so you can focus on creating content that connects with your audience. By integrating a cropping tool directly into the mobile app:

  • You’ll spend less time fixing aspect ratio errors for Instagram Stories, Reels and Posts.
  • Android users can crop images for any social network, ensuring your visuals look perfect across platforms.

 

How Does It Work?

For iOS Users:

  1. Open the HubSpot Mobile App and go to Marketing Home > Social.
  2. Tap the floating navigation button and select + Post.
  3. Choose the Instagram accounts you want to post from the modal showing your connected accounts.
  4. Select the Stories option (or choose from Reels, Posts or Stories).
  5. Upload your image. If the aspect ratio is incorrect, a banner with an option to resolve it will pop up.
  6. Click the banner and crop your image to the desired aspect ratio.
  7. Save your changes, and you’ll return to the post-creation flow, ready to publish your story!
