How To Stop Zooming In On Photos on TikTok

Well, quite frankly, we haven't figured out the exact reason why TikTok automatically adds the zoom-in effect when you make a video with photos or combine your pictures and videos using TikTok's upload feature.

But one thing is clear, if you've turned the zoom effect on your TikTok, it zooms in on your photos whilemaking a slideshow. So if you're in this case, you can turn off or disable the zoom effect to stop TikTok from zooming in on the photos.

Follow us and learn how to turn off zoom effects on TikTok and use other workarounds to stop zooming in on photos on TikTok.

Method 2 Avoid the Zooming Using the Green Screen to Record Your Photos

TikTok still zoomed your photos after disabling the effect? There's another workaround for you to stop zooming in on photos when posting any pictures on TikTok - just record the photos for any duration using theGreen Screen effect.

Step 1

Open TikTok on your phone and click the "+" icon to start making your video like normal.

Step 2

Tap Effects at the bottom-left corner, and choose the standard Green Screen effect, a green icon with a rectangular photo containing a mountain and sun with a down-arrow at its bottom edge.

Step 3

Tap + to choose the first photo you want to share in your camera roll.

Step 4

Now, you can select a video duration for the whole video and then hold down on the record button to record the first photo for as long as you'd like. (When you do this, you need to make sure there is nothing or a face in the view of the camera; otherwise, it will place those visuals in the front of the image.)
