About these tools

01 · Overview

What they do

Safe-zone checkers overlay the parts of the screen that platform buttons, captions, and profile details cover on vertical video, for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. You upload a frame or video and see the overlay in the browser; the file stays on your device.

02 · Practice

Before you use the result

  • Check the first frame and any frame with on-screen text.
  • Keep captions, logos, and faces out of the covered areas on the right and bottom.
  • Check the layout for every platform you post to; the covered areas differ.
  • Recheck after the platform changes its interface.

03 · Next step

Taking it into SignalDeck

SignalDeck publishes YouTube Shorts and, for Instagram Business and Creator accounts, is still verifying Reels and video. TikTok publishing in SignalDeck is gated and not a launch commitment.

Questions

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. The overlay runs locally in your browser.

Are the safe zones exact?

They are guides based on each platform's interface. Interfaces vary by device and change over time, so leave some margin.

Do I need an account?

No. The tools in this category run without an account.
