The short answer

The 4:5 shape is taller than a square, so it takes up more room in an Instagram feed. Add your photo below with the 4:5 frame already set, place your subject in it, and save. A 1080 by 1350 pixel picture is the usual size for this shape.

Frequently asked questions

Is 4:5 better than a square on Instagram?

It uses more of the screen as people scroll, which tends to make the picture easier to notice. It is a matter of taste, and a landscape photo still looks better wide.

Can I use the same photo as a square too?

Yes, crop it twice. Your original is not changed, so you can make a square, a 4:5 and a wide version from the same file.
