To edit your photos, do these steps:

  1. Open Airbnb on your computer.
  2. Log into your account.
  3. Click on "Listings" to show all your properties on Airbnb.
  4. Select the property listing.

  6. Tap on the pencil icon on the photo.
  7. Hit "Rotate" until the picture is in the correct position, or crop or adjust brightness of the photo.

Changing the Order of the Photos

To change the order your photos appear on your Airbnb listing, do the following:

  1. Open Airbnb on your computer.
  2. Log into your account.
  3. Click on "Listings" to show all your properties on Airbnb.
  4. Select the property listing.
  5. Click and hold the cursor over the photo you wish to move and drag it to the position you want.

A Note About Photos

Your first three photos will be the most important ones on your Airbnb listing. These are the ones that will be the most prominently displayed. When taking photos of your home, make sure the lighting is good and you can clearly see the features of your listing. Make sure your photos are large enough to be seen without compromising clarity. Airbnb allows you to upload up to 100 photos to your listing; however, you don't want to overwhelm potential visitors. Posting a few outstanding photos instead of 100 mediocre photos will help your listing stand out.

Uploading photos to your Airbnb listing is an easy process. For more information on photos, contact Airbnb customer support here.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for AirBnB Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like AirBnB in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our How Do I Upload Photos to the AirBnB Website? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
