Instagram Post Mockup Generator
Create Instagram-style post, message, and profile mockups for design previews, lessons, satire, or clearly fictional examples.
How to create a post on Instagram
To create a real Instagram post, open the app, tap the plus icon, choose a photo or video, apply a filter, write a caption, tag people, add a location, and share. Posts can be squares, landscape, or portrait; the app crops the preview grid to match your feed layout.
This generator creates mockup images for planning, education, and design review. It does not connect to Instagram, publish to your account, or upload media. Use it to draft layouts, test captions, and review how a post will look before creating the real version in the Instagram app.
Use Instagram mockups responsibly
A mockup is useful for planning layouts, teaching media literacy, presenting fictional scenarios, or testing how copy fits a social interface. Label exported examples when context could be unclear. The generator is not affiliated with Instagram and does not publish to, connect to, or reproduce a real account.
Do not use a mockup to impersonate a person or business, manufacture evidence, fake endorsements or engagement, harass someone, spread misinformation, or mislead viewers about a real conversation. Use your own names and content or obtain permission.
About this tool
This fake instagram post generator makes a browser-only mockup for entertainment, education, content planning, and interface examples. You can switch between a fake post, fake Instagram DM, and fake profile layout, then edit the username, display name, caption, count, timestamp, and color treatment before exporting a PNG.
The generated image is not connected to Instagram and should never be used to impersonate people, fake an Instagram DM as evidence, or mislead viewers. It is best for jokes among friends, storyboarding social content, teaching media literacy, or showing how a fake Instagram direct messages layout can be recognized. Everything runs locally in your browser with no login and no upload.
How to use it
- Pick Fake Post, Fake DM, or Fake Profile mode.
- Edit the username, display name, text, counts, timestamp, and image color.
- Download the PNG and label it clearly as a mockup wherever context matters.
FAQ
Is it legal to make a fake Instagram post?
A harmless mockup for parody, education, or design can be fine, but using one to deceive, impersonate, defame, or fabricate evidence can create legal and platform problems.
How do I make a fake Instagram DM screenshot?
Choose the DM mode, enter the account names and message text, then export the preview as a PNG mockup.
Can I generate a fake Instagram profile?
Yes. The profile mode creates a simple fake Instagram profile preview with a username, name, bio text, and follower-style count.
