A wattpad cover is approximately 256 by 400, or 512 x 800 pixels. I won't explain to you what a pixel is. It's just a type of measurement, like cm, mm, dm, inches etc! This is the size you want to have to create a fitting wattpad cover.
It doesn't matter what kind of software you use when you want to change the measures of your file. You will always have an option for that.
