How to Resize an Image for TikTok
All TikTok Image & Video Sizes (2026)
TikTok uses 9:16 vertical format for most content. Using the correct dimensions prevents cropping, black bars, and quality loss from recompression. Here is every TikTok size you need:
| Content Type | Size (px) | Aspect Ratio | Max File Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Video | 1080 × 1920 | 9:16 | 287 MB (iOS) / 72 MB (Android) / 500 MB (Web) |
| Photo Carousel | 1080 × 1920 | 9:16 | ~20 MB per image |
| Story | 1080 × 1920 | 9:16 | 72 MB |
| Thumbnail / Cover | 1080 × 1920 | 9:16 | 10 MB |
| LIVE Thumbnail | 1080 × 1920 | 9:16 | 10 MB |
| Shop Product Image | 1000 × 1000 | 1:1 | 5 MB |
| Profile Picture | 400 × 400 | 1:1 (circle) | 5 MB |
| In-Feed Ad | 1080 × 1920 | 9:16 | 500 MB |
Vertical 9:16 videos get 30–50% more engagement than horizontal. 16:9 videos display with black bars and lose roughly 40% engagement.
TikTok Safe Zones
TikTok’s interface overlays UI elements on top of your content. Keep important visuals and text within the safe zone to avoid being covered by buttons, captions, and the music ticker.
~960 × 1386 px
| Zone | Margin | UI Elements |
|---|---|---|
| Top | 90–160 px | Username, search bar, status bar |
| Bottom | 330–480 px | Caption, hashtags, progress bar, music ticker |
| Right | ~120 px | Like, comment, share, save, profile buttons |
| Left | ~65 px | Caption text overflow |
| Center safe area | Approximately 960 × 1386 px — unobstructed content zone | |
For paid ads, the bottom margin expands by an extra ~50 px for the “Shop Now” or “Learn More” CTA button.
TikTok Photo Carousel Specs
TikTok Photo Mode (carousel) lets you post multiple images as a swipeable slideshow. Here are the key specifications:
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Recommended dimensions | 1080 × 1920 px per image |
| Number of photos | 4–35 images per carousel |
| Aspect ratio | 9:16 (primary), also 1:1 and 4:5 |
| Alternative dimensions | 1080 × 1080 (1:1), 1080 × 1350 (4:5) |
| Max file size per image | ~20 MB |
| Supported formats | JPG (photos), PNG (graphics with text) |
| Safe zone per slide | Center 1080 × 1520 px (avoid top 150 px, bottom 250 px) |
Use 9:16 for full-screen impact. The 4:5 ratio (1080 × 1350) works well for text-heavy slides — it leaves a gap below the image where the caption displays without overlapping your content. Music can be added to photo carousels.
TikTok Shop Product Image Requirements
TikTok Shop has strict image requirements for product listings. Meeting them improves your listing quality score and search visibility.
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Recommended size | 1000 × 1000 px |
| Minimum size | 600 × 600 px |
| Maximum size | 6000 × 6000 px |
| Aspect ratio | 1:1 (square) |
| Max file size | 5 MB per image |
| Accepted formats | JPG, PNG only (HEIC/WebP auto-converted) |
| Max images per listing | 9 total |
| Max images per variant | 3 |
| Product coverage | Minimum 80% of the frame |
| Background | White or light-colored recommended |
Prohibited: text overlays, watermarks, prices, competitor comparisons, digital renderings, marketing stickers, duplicate main images, or logos covering the product.
For the “Good” listing quality tier, upload at least 5 images per product. Listings with more high-quality images rank higher in TikTok Shop search results.
TikTok Video Specs Quick Reference
While this tool focuses on image resizing, here are the key video specs for reference:
| Spec | Recommended |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 1080 × 1920 px (1080p) |
| Aspect ratio | 9:16 vertical |
| Format | MP4 (H.264 codec preferred) |

| Max length (upload) | 60 minutes |
| Optimal length | 9–15 seconds (viral), 21–34 seconds (storytelling) |
TikTok Profile Picture
TikTok displays profile pictures as a circle. Upload a square image — the edges will be cropped to a circular shape.
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Recommended | 400 × 400 px (best: 1080 × 1080 px) |
| Minimum | 200 × 200 px |
| Aspect ratio | 1:1 (square upload, circular display) |
| Max file size | 5 MB |
| Accepted formats | JPG, PNG |
Upload at 1080 × 1080 for the sharpest quality after TikTok’s compression. Keep your subject centered since the edges get cropped in the circular display.
