Why this matters

TikTok overlays various UI elements over your video. If you place important text or visuals in the red "unsafe" zones, your viewers won't be able to read them, leading to frustration and lower engagement.

💡Best practices for TikTok text

  • ✔Keep your hook (the most important text) in the top third of the safe area.
  • ✔Ensure any lists or key points fit comfortably within the center bounds to account for different phone screen ratios.
  • ✔Avoid the entire bottom area, as long captions easily expand and block text.
