A Facebook group cover should be 1640×856 (1.91:1). Mobile displays the full image, but desktop crops the height to about 662 px. Keep your group name, logo and any text inside a centered 1640×662 safe zone.
Why this differs from a page cover
Group covers use a wider 1.91:1 banner than the classic profile cover, so a reused page cover will look cropped. Export a dedicated 1640×856 image.
Format
Use JPG or PNG under a few MB. sRGB color avoids shifts after compression.
