Create a LinkedIn video →Design tips
LinkedIn native videos should be 1920×1080 pixels (16:9 landscape) for standard content or 1080×1920 (9:16 vertical) for mobile-first viewing. Videos can be 3 seconds to 15 minutes long with a 5GB maximum file size.
- •Upload natively to LinkedIn when you want the video to play directly in-feed rather than sending viewers off-platform.
- •Add captions so the video still works well in muted autoplay contexts.
- •Keep the opening seconds visually clear and concise so the video is understandable before a viewer unmutes.
What you need to know
LinkedIn supports native video uploads in landscape (16:9), square (1:1), and vertical (9:16) formats. Landscape is the traditional default, while vertical video is increasingly common for mobile-first publishing. Square video is a practical compromise that works cleanly in both mobile and desktop feeds.
Native LinkedIn videos auto-play on mute in the feed, so the first few seconds need to communicate visually without relying on sound. Adding captions is still a good practice because it improves readability in muted autoplay contexts. Use MP4 format with H.264 encoding for best compatibility.
LinkedIn videos can be 3 seconds to 15 minutes long for personal accounts (up to 30 minutes for company pages). Shorter videos are often easier to watch in-feed, while longer videos may fit educational or event content. If the goal is native in-feed viewing, uploading directly to LinkedIn gives you control over how the post is displayed.
