Frequently Asked Questions
What is a safe zone?
The safe zone is the area of a vertical video where no platform UI elements (captions, buttons, username) will overlay your content. Keep important text and visuals within this area.
What happens if content is outside the safe zone?
Content outside the safe zone gets covered by platform UI — usernames, captions, like/share buttons, and music bars. Viewers can't see it clearly, hurting your message and engagement.
Are safe zones the same across platforms?
No. Each platform has different UI layouts. TikTok has a larger bottom overlay (captions + music), Instagram Reels has right-side action buttons, and YouTube Shorts has its own layout.
