It recommends 3–10 second clips, previews a circular safe area, removes audio, and offers Best, Balanced, and Small file-size modes. The stated output is a 480 × 480, 60 FPS H.264 MP4, while the downloadable package also includes opening and closing assets, a transparent cover image, and upload instructions.
