Aspect Ratio
When uploading videos on certain platforms, you may need to adjust the aspect ratio of your recordings. For instance, for platforms that favor vertical videos, such as TikTok or Instagram, you should adjust the ratio accordingly.
You can customize the aspect ratio for your exported videos after recording them.
Changing the aspect ratio
When the editor is open, you will see an option to change the aspect ratio just above the preview of your video.
Available aspect ratio options
You have a few options to select from based on your target platform:
Original
Uses the video's original aspect ratio (default).
16:9
Ideal for screen recordings, tutorials, and YouTube uploads.
1:1
Optimized for Instagram feed grid and cross-platform social sharing.
9:16
Perfect for Instagram Stories, Reels, and TikTok.
4:3
Suited for legacy content and standard presentations.
4:5
Great for mobile feeds on Instagram & Facebook.
Platform recommendations
- YouTube & tutorials: Use Widescreen (16:9) for the best viewing experience on desktop and TV.
- TikTok & Instagram Reels: Use Vertical (9:16) to fill the entire mobile screen.
- Instagram Feed: Use Square (1:1) or Portrait (4:5) for optimal display in the grid.
- Presentations: Use Classic (4:3) for compatibility with older projectors and standard slides.
