Square catalog ads: what works

Where does a square catalog ad actually appear?
Mainly the Facebook and Instagram feeds, where a square fills more height than a landscape crop, which is why it remains the safest default when a campaign targets multiple placements at once.
Does square waste vertical screen space on mobile?
Some, compared with a taller format, but square avoids the cropping risk that portrait or story assets face when Meta places them somewhere they were not designed for.
Should every catalog include a square version?
Yes. Advantage+ catalog campaigns can serve across placements automatically, so having a square asset for every product keeps the ad eligible everywhere the algorithm wants to show it.
