The text below is the guide that goes with it. ## TikTok image sizes at a glance TikTok is built around full-screen vertical content, so 1080×1920 (9:16) is the size to use for photo posts and slideshow images. The resizer also includes a square preset and a 200×200 profile photo preset. | Preset | Size | Ratio | Use it for | |---|---|---|---| | Video / photo | 1080×1920 | 9:16 | Photo posts, slideshows, cover frames | | Square | 1080×1080 | 1:1 | Images you also share on other networks | | Profile photo | 200×200 | 1:1 | Your account picture, shown as a circle | ### Full-screen vertical A 1080×1920 image fills a phone screen without black bars. It's the same frame as a TikTok video, so photos and videos sit side by side in the feed without looking out of place. For video specifics, see our guide to [TikTok video size and ratio](https://scheduleforyou.com/blog/tiktok-video-size-ratio). ### Square images Square images can work on TikTok, but they leave empty space above and below on most phones. Use the square preset when you're repurposing an image from another platform and don't want to crop the sides. ### Profile photo TikTok recommends at least 200×200 for profile pictures at the time of writing. The image is shown as a small circle, so a simple, centered subject reads best. ## How to resize a photo for TikTok ### 1. Upload an image Choose a PNG or JPG. It never leaves your browser. ### 2. Choose the preset Pick video/photo, square or profile photo. The preview frame changes shape straight away. ### 3. Fill to crop, or fit to pad Most horizontal photos lose their sides when cropped to 9:16. **Fill (crop)** zooms in to cover the tall frame, which works for portraits and close-ups. **Fit (add background)** keeps the whole photo and adds color above and below, which suits landscapes, screenshots and graphics you can't afford to trim. ### 4. Download Export as JPG for photographs or PNG for graphics with text. Then add it to a photo post in TikTok or upload it to your scheduler. ## Tips for TikTok images that read well ### Keep text out of the overlay zones TikTok places buttons down the right side and the caption, username and sounds along the bottom. Text in those areas gets covered. Keep key words in the upper-middle of the frame and away from the right edge. ### Use the padding as a design element When you use fit, the bars above and below your image don't have to be wasted. Pick a bold background color and add text in that space with your editing app before posting. ### Keep a slideshow consistent If you're posting several photos as a slideshow, resize them all with the same preset and mode so the frame doesn't jump between slides. ### Make your profile picture recognizable at a glance Your profile photo appears next to every video and comment at a very small size. A close-up face or a simple mark with strong contrast works better than a wide shot. To make a letter or emoji icon from scratch, try the [TikTok logo generator](https://scheduleforyou.com/tools/tiktok-logo-generator). ## Use cases ### Photo carousels and tutorials Step-by-step guides, recipes and before-and-after posts work well as a series of vertical images. Resize each step to 1080×1920 so it fills the screen. ### Repurposing content from Instagram Take a portrait or square Instagram post and use fit to place it on a full-screen TikTok canvas without cutting anything off. The [Instagram photo resizer](https://scheduleforyou.com/tools/instagram-photo-resizer) handles the reverse. ### Profile refresh Crop a new headshot or brand image to 200×200 to keep your profile sharp. Pair it with an updated bio from the [TikTok bio generator](https://scheduleforyou.com/tools/tiktok-bio-generator), which keeps you under the 80-character limit. ## Frequently asked questions ### What size should TikTok photos be? Use 1080×1920, a 9:16 vertical image, so it fills the screen without bars. ### What is the TikTok profile picture size? At the time of writing, TikTok recommends at least 200×200. Upload a square image and keep the subject centered, since it's displayed as a circle. ### What is the TikTok logo size for a brand account? Your logo is your profile photo, so the same rules apply. TikTok accepts images as small as 20×20, but upload a square of at least 200×200 so it stays sharp, and keep the mark centered because it's shown as a circle. Need a simple logo first? Try the [TikTok logo generator](https://scheduleforyou.com/tools/tiktok-logo-generator). ### Can I post square images on TikTok? Yes, but they won't fill the screen. Use fit with a background color if you want a full-screen frame without cropping the square. ### How do I stop TikTok from cropping my photo? Resize it to 9:16 before uploading. Use fit if you want to keep the whole image and add a background instead of cropping. ### Which format is better for TikTok, PNG or JPG? JPG keeps photos small and looks fine for most images. PNG is better when your image has sharp text or flat graphics. ### Is my photo uploaded when I resize it? No. The resizer runs entirely in your browser. ## Schedule TikTok posts with Schedule For You Schedule For You publishes to TikTok and nine other networks, including Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest.
