Vertical video specifics
TikTok clips are usually 1080×1920. Captions sit lower and closer to the edges than in landscape footage, and the handle watermark often floats near the bottom corner with a slight transparency.
Because the frame is tall, a selection box that looks small on a desktop preview can cover a large share of the picture. Keep boxes tight and check the repaired area in motion.
- Keep the 9:16 aspect ratio — no cropping, no letterboxing
- Handle watermarks: select the box, not the individual letters
- Animated word-by-word captions: cover the full caption zone
A note on attribution
Removing the TikTok watermark from someone else’s video to repost it is a copyright problem, and platforms treat it as one. This tool is for clips you made and own.
If you are reposting your own content, removing your old handle is fine. If you are reposting a collaboration, get the other creator’s agreement first.
Frequently asked questions
Does this remove the TikTok logo watermark?+
It can remove a text watermark you select. The animated TikTok logo is a moving graphic element — it is harder to reconstruct and results vary, so test a short segment first.
Will the video stay vertical?+
Yes. The output keeps the input resolution and aspect ratio, up to 1080p.
Can I remove captions from an Instagram Reel the same way?+
Yes — Reels exports are the same kind of file. Use the same workflow; only the caption position may differ.
Is it allowed to remove text from my own TikTok video?+
Yes. You own the footage, so removing your own captions or handle is fine. Removing another creator’s watermark is not.
