Your ads should be vertically formatted to look like native content. The smartphone is the device from which the app is mostly accessed.

Not all TikTok users will see your ad in its entirety. For this reason, it is essential to write a concise and informative description. Here are some of our recommendations for your TikTok copy:
Keep in mind that once the video is uploaded, you will not be able to retouch the copy.
The copy is important, the words are metadata for the platform.
Use between 1 and 5 hashtags to get closer to your target audience.
Add subtitles to encourage user engagement.
The CTA is essential. It is better if it is simple and direct: buy, learn more, get started...
Your ads should be short (9-15 seconds) and get straight to the point. Make sure to attract users' attention from the first seconds with attractive visual elements (bright colors, text on the screen...).
