What sits on top of a 1080×1920 TikTok cover

Video, live, thumbnail, and cover share 1080×1920. The caption and buttons cover the lower band, so type in that band is not readable.

A square video is 1080×1080. A landscape video is 1920×1080. The shop image is 800×800. Each one is its own export from the original.

The profile is 200×200 and the ad profile is 98×98. Detail that reads on the 1080×1920 cover disappears at 98×98.

How to stretch an image for a TikTok frame

Most TikTok rows on this page are 1080×1920. The profile, the shop tile, and the landscape video are not.

  1. Step 1

    Open the still you will post

    A 200×200 profile is the wrong master. Open the largest file you have, then stretch down into the vertical frame.

  2. Step 2

    Pick the TikTok row

    Post, Live, Video, Thumbnail, and Cover are 1080×1920. Landscape video is 1920×1080. Square video is 1080×1080. Profile and DP are 200×200. The ad profile is 98×98. Shop is 800×800.

  3. Step 3

    Watch the caption band

    On a 1080×1920 post the caption and buttons cover the lower right. Stretch the subject into that corner and the words hide it.

  4. Step 4

    Save a second file for the profile

    200×200 (and 98×98 for the ad profile) is a circle-like crop in the app. Export it from the original, not by shrinking the 1080×1920 cover.

TikTok frames that share a name and not a size

Vertical video is the common case. The chart still has squares and a landscape row.

  • Full-screen video stills

    Post, Live, Video, Thumbnail, and Cover are all 1080×1920 here. One stretch can feed those rows. It still will not feed the landscape row.

  • Landscape video

    1920×1080. A vertical cover stretched sideways to hit this row warps the subject. Crop a 16:9 window when the scene can spare the top and bottom.

  • Square video

    1080×1080. It sits between the vertical post and the landscape row. Treat it as its own export.

  • Shop tile

    Shop is 800×800. Product type on the packaging stretches with the photo. Prefer a crop when the label must stay readable.

  • Profile pictures

    Profile and DP are 200×200. The ad profile is 98×98. Both are far smaller than the video frame.

Why stretch for TikTok with ImageStretcher

  • Buttons cover the right edge

    A TikTok video frame is 1080×1920. Like, comment, and share sit on the right, and the caption sits along the bottom. Words in those bands get covered.

  • The profile is tiny

    The profile picture is 200×200, and the ad profile slot is 98×98. A cover stretched down to that square keeps only the center.

  • Shop photos are square

    TikTok Shop images are 800×800. The For You video is vertical. A product photo stretched into 1080×1920 is a different job from the shop tile.

  • Landscape video stays wide

    The landscape slot is 1920×1080. In the vertical feed that wide frame does not fill the screen the way a 1080×1920 cover does.

Formats and limits for TikTok stretching

Download JPEG or WebP for a 1080×1920 TikTok still. Use PNG for the 800×800 shop tile when the product label is vector-like type.

A photographic cover at 1080×1920 is fine as JPEG or WebP. A flat shop tile at 1080×1080, and a mark that must still read at 98×98, belong in PNG.

The landscape video will not become the cover by rotating the file. The ad profile is a third export.

A horizontal clip is the wrong cover

The tall version of this drawing is a cover. The wide version is a landscape video. One clip cannot be both, and the caption still sits on the lower part of the tall one.

The profile is 200×200. The ad profile is 98×98, the same idea with almost none of the detail left.
