TikTok is a full-screen, vertical app

Every TikTok post fills the phone. An image that is square or wide is shown with empty space above and below it, which reads as an ad that was made for somewhere else. A true 9:16 version is the single biggest improvement you can make.

CreativeResize builds that version from your existing creative, along with the square and horizontal shapes TikTok also accepts. It works with still images, for image and carousel ads. It does not resize video.

Getting a clean result

  • Leave the right side and the bottom clear

    TikTok draws the like, comment and share buttons down the right edge and the caption and call-to-action across the bottom. A square creative centred in a 9:16 frame stays mostly above the caption, so check its lower edge and the right-hand side.

  • Use Background for a native look

    A blurred, enlarged copy of the image behind the creative is a style TikTok viewers already know from reposted content. It looks more at home than plain bars.

  • Make every carousel image the same shape

    A carousel that switches between ratios jumps around as people swipe. Resize every image with the same mode and use the 9:16 file from each.

Your images stay on your device.

Questions

What size are TikTok ads?

The usual size is 1080 × 1920 pixels, a 9:16 ratio, because it fills the screen. Square 1:1 and horizontal 16:9 are also commonly accepted and are shown smaller. Confirm the current requirements in TikTok Ads Manager.

Can I run image ads on TikTok?

Yes. TikTok offers image and carousel ad formats alongside video. Availability depends on your objective and region, so check Ads Manager for your account.

Does CreativeResize resize TikTok videos?

No. It works with still images only: JPG, PNG and WEBP in, JPG or PNG out.
