Sample frame from one of our own Shorts. Red: covered by TikTok. Inside the white line: safe.
Why the safe zone matters
Each app puts its own buttons on top of your video: the like and share buttons on the right, the caption and channel name at the bottom, a few tabs at the top.
Text or a face under those buttons gets hidden. Keep the important part of every frame in the clear middle area.
These lines are a guide
The shaded areas are close to where each app puts its buttons on a normal phone in 2026. Apps change their layout and long captions take more room, so leave a little extra space.
