Why use a Safe Zone Tester?

Each short-video platform (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts) overlays its own interface elements—like the like button, comments, caption, and music info—on top of your video.

If you place crucial text, logos, or captions in these "danger zones," users won't be able to see them, which can ruin the viewing experience and lower engagement.

The 9:16 Standard

All these platforms use the vertical 9:16 aspect ratio (1080x1920 pixels). It is crucial to design your content specifically for this format.

Pro Tip: Use Medra to compress high-quality videos and photos for faster uploads without losing clarity.
