What is TikTok's maximum video file size?

TikTok allows uploads up to 287MB on most devices, but older devices may be limited to 72MB. Videos can be up to 10 minutes long. For the best upload experience, keep your file under 200MB.

What is the best video format for TikTok?

TikTok works best with MP4 (H.264) format. Use 1080x1920 resolution (9:16 vertical) for full-screen display. TikTok also accepts MOV files, but MP4 is more universally compatible.

Why does TikTok say my video is too large?

TikTok rejects videos that exceed its file size limit. Use this tool to compress your video below 287MB (or 72MB for older devices). You can also reduce the resolution to 720x1280 which still looks great on mobile.

Does compressing video reduce quality on TikTok?

TikTok re-encodes all uploaded videos regardless. Compressing to medium quality before upload gives you more control over the result. The key is to start with at least 1080p resolution so TikTok's compression has good source material.

What resolution should I use for TikTok videos?

The ideal resolution is 1080x1920 (9:16 vertical). TikTok displays videos full-screen on phones, so vertical format fills the screen. You can also use 720x1280 for smaller file sizes while maintaining acceptable quality.
