Hi, the best aspect ratio for portrait videos on Instagram is 5:4. But I can't do that.
How can I have a custom aspect ratio?

Re: Custom Aspect Ratio
Hi
All display devices, TV, Computer monitors etc. all show using landscape aspect
So why not record the phone video in landscape, then your video will fill the screen rather than having borders.
Unless of course you do need Portrait for a particular reason?
From Instagram
“The problem is there’s no one standard size for Instagram Stories; display dimensions depend on the device on which they’re viewed. That said, and again with the approach of meeting the widest demand possible and future-proofing your content, take the leap to a portrait 9:16 aspect ratio with a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels.”
and
“All this talk of photos and it would almost seem as if we had forgotten video. Fear not, avid marketers, we have you covered. As of 2018, Instagram videos can display as square video (still the most successful Instagram video size), portrait video, or landscape video.”
