1. What is the TikTok Safe Zone?

The “Safe Zone” is the area of your video that is free from any overlays (buttons, captions, battery life, etc.). If you put text outside this zone, users won’t be able to read it.

• Left Margin: Keep text 15px from the left.
• Right Margin: Keep text 120px from the right (to avoid the Like/Share buttons).
• Bottom Margin: Keep text 320px from the bottom (to avoid the Caption & Music info).
• Top Margin: Keep text 108px from the top (to avoid the “Following/For You” tabs).

2. TikTok Video Size & Dimensions

For the best quality, always stick to the native mobile format.

• Resolution: 1080 x 1920 pixels.
• Aspect Ratio: 9:16 (Vertical).
• Max File Size: 287.6 MB (iOS) / 72 MB (Android).

3. TikTok Profile Picture Size

Your profile picture on TikTok is always cropped into a circle.

• Recommended Size: 200 x 200 pixels.
• The Trap: Do not put important logos or text in the corners of your square image—they will be sliced off. Use the “Profile Pic” mode in our tool above to check the circle crop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my TikTok video quality bad? TikTok aggressively compresses videos. To get the highest quality, record in 1080p (not 4K), and ensure “Upload HD” is checked in your upload settings.

What is the TikTok cover size? The cover (thumbnail) you select for your profile grid is vertical, just like the video. However, TikTok often displays a small animated preview. The standard size is 1080 x 1920.

Can I upload landscape videos to TikTok? Yes, but they perform poorly. TikTok is a vertical-first platform. Landscape videos look small and leave massive black bars, which usually leads to lower engagement.
