TikTok video size and safe zones

Quick answer

TikTok video size is 1080 × 1920 px, a vertical 9:16 ratio. Photo posts use the same size. Keep text away from the bottom and right edges, where TikTok shows the caption and buttons.

Tips for TikTok images

  • Keep captions and on-screen text in the middle of the frame, clear of the caption at the bottom and the buttons on the right.
  • Use the same 1080 × 1920 px template for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, and post it everywhere.
  • Big, high-contrast text reads best on small screens.
