Why the 80% Safe Zone is Essential
When link cards render in mobile feeds or compact messaging lists, applications apply varied treatments:
- Rounded Corners: iOS and Android feed cards apply 8px to 16px corner radiuses, clipping outer corner elements.
- Text & Brand Overlays: Platforms frequently overlay site name pills, play buttons, or favicon chips over the bottom-left or bottom-right of the image.
- Variable Aspect Crops: X mobile apps crop 1.91:1 images closer to 2:1, shaving ~15 pixels off the top and bottom.
Best Practice: Always position primary headings, subtitles, and company logos within the central 960 × 504 px box on a 1200 × 630 px canvas.
