Convert any video to TikTok’s 9:16 format — blur bars, solid bars, or crop to fill.
This preview is the output frame — whatever is cut off here is cut off in the file.

Much quicker than the clip is long. You can switch tabs while it works.

Blurred bars, solid bars, or crop to fill the frame.

Spec sheet
Features
Blurred bars, like TikTok’s own
Fill the gaps with a blurred copy of the frame — TikTok’s look, baked into the file.
Exact TikTok size
Export 9:16 at 1080×1920 or 720×1280 — no aspect-ratio math needed.
Crop to fill, or keep it all
Go edge-to-edge with a crop, or keep the full picture with bars.
Portrait, square or vertical in
Any non-9:16 clip works the same — landscape, square, or off-size vertical.
Optional audio
Keep the soundtrack or strip it for a trending sound.
MP4 download, no watermark
H.264 MP4, no logo, no signup — converted on your device.
The format
What is TikTok video format?
Everything in this table is what the tool above exports, so matching it takes no settings. TikTok re-encodes whatever you send, which is why the shape matters far more than squeezing out extra pixels.
| Spec | TikTok wants | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Aspect ratio | 9:16 vertical | Fills the whole phone screen. 1:1 and 16:9 play with big empty bars. |
| Resolution | 1080 × 1920 | Full TikTok resolution; the minimum is 720 × 1280. Both are presets here. |
| File type | MP4 (H.264 / AAC) | TikTok recommends MP4 or MOV — this tool always exports MP4, which every device plays. |
| Frame rate | 23–60 fps | The tool keeps whatever your source uses, so nothing to set. |
