Crop and export TikTok-ready images locally in your browser, with presets for vertical covers and square profile photos.
Updated July 2026. Use this as a practical crop guide, not an official TikTok spec sheet. Verify platform requirements before a high-stakes brand campaign.
For TikTok cover-style images, start with a vertical 9:16 crop and export at 1080 x 1920 when you want a full-screen cover asset. For profile photos, use a square image and keep the face, logo, or product centered because it may appear in a circular frame. PicPerfect resizes the image in your browser, so the file does not need to be uploaded to a server.
Citable workflow: crop for the TikTok surface first: use 9:16 for cover-style assets and a centered square crop for profile photos.
| TikTok image job | PicPerfect export | Ratio | Safe-area advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Video cover-style image | 1080 x 1920 | 9:16 | Keep faces and text away from the very top and bottom |
| Profile photo | 200 x 200 preset | 1:1 | Center the subject because the app may display it as a circle |
| Repurposed vertical image | 1080 x 1920 | 9:16 | Preview crop before exporting |
| Product or logo image | Square or vertical | 1:1 or 9:16 | Avoid thin text near the edge |
TikTok uses a vertical-first format. Getting the right crop and safe area helps your videos look polished in search, recommendations, and on your profile grid.
| Image Type | Recommended Size | Aspect Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| Video / Cover | 1080 x 1920 px | 9:16 |
| Profile Picture | 200 x 200 px | 1:1 |
Use a vertical 9:16 image. PicPerfect's cover export preset is 1080 x 1920 px.
Use a square image and keep the important part centered. PicPerfect includes a 200 x 200 square export preset for profile photos.
Yes. PicPerfect runs the crop and resize operation in your browser.
Platform surfaces can crop differently. Keep faces, logos, and text inside the center safe area instead of placing them on the edge.
PicPerfect can work with common browser-supported image formats. Export format support depends on the current tool settings.
