FAQ
What is the TikTok video size?
The most common TikTok size is 1080×1920 (9:16).
Quick tip: Edit in 9:16 to avoid unintended cropping and scaling.
Common mistake: Reusing 16:9 content without redesign—important parts get cut.
How do I keep subtitles readable?
Avoid placing crucial subtitles at the extreme bottom edge; keep them comfortably within the central viewing area.
Quick tip: Use larger text and high contrast because UI and motion reduce readability.
Common mistake: Sticking subtitles to the very bottom—UI elements can overlap them.
Crop vs Pad for TikTok?
Crop fills the screen; Pad preserves the entire design without cutting edges.
Quick tip: For posters/screenshots, Pad is safer to protect text.
Common mistake: Cropping text-based covers—titles and logos often get cut.
Why is my TikTok upload blurry?
It can be low source resolution, heavy compression, or platform re-encoding.
Quick tip: Export at 1080×1920 and avoid extremely low quality settings.
Common mistake: Exporting multiple times—each re-encode reduces clarity.
Do you upload my images?
No. Processing happens locally in your browser. Your files are not uploaded.
What size should I use?
Use 1080x1920 (9:16).
Which export format should I use?
JPG for photos, PNG for text/logos or transparency, WebP for smaller files (if supported).
Crop vs Pad — what is the difference?
Crop fills the target size (may cut edges). Pad fits the whole image and adds background/space.
How do I protect text and logos?
Keep important content centered and avoid placing critical text at the edges.
Can I batch resize?
Yes. Use the Batch Resizer to apply the same size to many images.
