- Keep one point on each slide, in a few words.
- Use photos you have the right to post: your own, or ones whose licence allows it.
- End with one clear next step, such as save, follow or a question.

Questions
What size is a TikTok slideshow?
1080 x 1920 pixels, a 9:16 frame, fills a portrait phone screen. TikTok does not publish an official photo aspect ratio, so this is the size that leaves no bars.
How do I post the slides on TikTok?
In the TikTok app, tap the plus button, choose Photo, then Upload, and pick the slides in order so they stay a swipeable photo post. Add a sound and a caption, then post.
Is it free, and is there a watermark?
It is free, with no sign-up and no watermark. The slides are yours.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Your photos open in this browser tab, the slides are drawn here, and closing the tab clears them. Nothing is sent to Wavegrain.
Why at most 10 slides?
Most useful slideshows are shorter than that, and Wavegrain's app makes 3 to 10 slides too. Make a second set if you need more.
How is this different from Wavegrain?
Wavegrain's app is the AI version: from a topic it writes the script, places your photos or makes AI images, and lays out every slide in an editor you can change.
