TikTok and Reels safe zone checker
Each app puts its buttons, captions and username on top of your video. Upload a frame or a clip and see what each one will cover, so your face, text and product stay visible. Your file never leaves your device.
Keep faces, text and your product out of the red areas. The file stays on your device. The zones are approximate, because the apps move their buttons a little with each redesign.

Questions
- What is a safe zone?
- The middle part of a vertical video that no app button, caption or username covers. Put your text and your face inside it.
- What size should a TikTok or Reel be?
- 1080 × 1920 pixels, a 9:16 vertical frame. All three apps use the same shape.
- Why is the bottom zone so big?
- That is where the caption, username, music and the comment box sit. On-screen text placed low gets covered most often.
