TikTok video size checker
TikTok's developer docs list the video limits for apps that post to TikTok: 360 to 4096 pixels on each side, MP4, WebM or MOV, 23 to 60 frames per second and up to 4 GB. TikTok doesn't publish a recommended size or aspect ratio for videos made in its own app, so this page doesn't give one. Drop in a video to check its size, format, length and file size.
Try it
Limits from TikTok's posting API docs: 360 to 4096 pixels per side, MP4, WebM or MOV, up to 4 GB, 23 to 60 FPS. This checker reads the width, height, length, file size and file type. A browser can't read frame rate, so check that in your editor. The ratio has no pass or fail because TikTok publishes no size for its app.
How it works
- 1
Drop in a video. The browser reads it, and nothing is uploaded.
- 2
The checker reads the width, height, length, file size and file type.
- 3
It marks the 360 to 4096 pixel limits and the 4 GB file size as pass or check, flags a file that isn't MP4, WebM or MOV, and shows the length in seconds.
- 4
It shows the ratio as a plain number with no pass or fail. A browser can't read frame rate, so check that in your editor.
