TikTok content is “vertical-first”, so this page is purpose-built for TikTok ratios instead of repeating your general resizer content.

TikTok is vertical-first — size it like TikTok thinks

If you upload random ratios, TikTok can crop or letterbox. Start with a vertical 9:16 canvas (1080×1920), then choose No-crop or Fill depending on whether you value “everything visible” or “full-screen framing”.

When to use each fit mode on TikTok

  • No-crop (fit) for text, screenshots, product cards
    Keeps the whole design visible; padding bars are normal on TikTok when preserving info.
  • Fill (crop) for face-cam and lifestyle visuals
    Looks more “native” and full-screen, at the cost of trimming edges.
  • Profile photos need center-safe composition
    TikTok crops avatars in a circle—keep faces/logos centered.

TikTok profile photo sizing (practical)

TikTok’s Help Center notes profile photos must be at least 20×20 px to upload.

A 200×200 square is a clean “minimum-quality target” for crisp avatars across UI.

Tip: If you’re resizing a logo, use PNG and keep extra space around edges to survive the circle crop.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size should I use for TikTok Photo Mode?

A common, vertical-first choice for TikTok Photo Mode is 1080×1920 pixels (9:16) so it fills the screen cleanly.

What is the best TikTok aspect ratio?

TikTok is optimized for 9:16 vertical. Square (1:1) and landscape (16:9) can work but may not feel full-screen.

What size is a TikTok profile photo?

TikTok requires a minimum of 20×20 pixels to upload a profile photo, but 200×200 is commonly used as a cleaner target for profile images.

How do I avoid cropping important text on TikTok?

Use No-crop (fit) when resizing, then keep headlines and logos away from the extreme top/bottom edges where app UI can overlap.

Should I export TikTok images as JPG or PNG?

Use JPG/WebP for photos (smaller files). Use PNG for sharper text, logos, and UI screenshots.
