What's the difference between the Resizer and the Cropper?

The Resizer fits your whole video into the 9:16 frame with nothing cropped out, filling empty space with a background. The Cropper instead crops away the parts that don't fit, letting you choose which section of a wider or taller video to keep. Same target frame, different tradeoff.

Will any part of my video be cut off?

No — resizing never crops or cuts your video. The entire original frame is always visible in the output; only the empty space around it (if any) is filled with your chosen background.

What video formats can I upload?

MP4 and MOV. The result always downloads as a standard MP4, which TikTok accepts directly.

How long does resizing take?

It depends on your video's length and resolution — resizing re-encodes the entire video, so longer or higher-resolution clips take longer. You'll see live progress while it processes.

Is there a limit on video size or length?

Yes — very large uploads are rejected to keep processing times reasonable for everyone. If your video is too large, try trimming it or exporting at a lower resolution first.

What happens if my video is already 9:16?

It's re-encoded at exactly 1080×1920 with no visible padding needed, since it already fits the frame.

Is my video uploaded to a permanent server?

Your video is processed on our server only for as long as it takes to resize it, then automatically deleted. It's never stored permanently or shared.

Q: What's the difference between the two background styles?

Blurred Background fills the empty space with a softly blurred, zoomed-in copy of your own video, so the padding still feels like part of the shot. Solid Black is a plain letterbox with clean black bars — simpler and more neutral.

Fit any video into TikTok's 9:16 frame at exactly 1080×1920 without losing any part of the shot. Upload a wide, square, or already-vertical video, choose a blurred or solid black background to fill the empty space, and get back a resized MP4 that shows your whole video — no cropping, no missing edges.

Why Use TikTok Video Resizer?

TikTok's feed is a strict 9:16 vertical frame, but not every video should be cropped to fit it — a wide screen recording, a landscape camera shot, or a square export from another app often has important content near the edges that a crop would cut off. This tool takes a different approach from cropping: it fits your entire video inside the 1080×1920 frame at its full, unmodified framing, and fills whatever empty space is left above/below or left/right with a background — either a softly blurred, cover-scaled copy of your own video (so the padding still feels like part of the shot) or a clean solid black letterbox. The result is a TikTok-ready MP4 at the exact resolution TikTok expects, with nothing from your original video lost. If you'd rather crop in on a specific part of the frame instead, use the TikTok Video Cropper; if your video is already framed correctly and you just need a smaller file, use the TikTok Video Compressor.
