What does Shorts Safe-Zone Checker do?
Tubelexity overlays a practical YouTube Shorts interface guide on your image or video so you can check titles, captions, logos and key visuals. Toggle individual interface areas, adjust opacity and compare mobile and editing views. You can also download a transparent 1080 × 1920 PNG template. YouTube may change its interface, so the overlay is guidance rather than a permanent pixel-perfect specification.
