FAQ

What's Xiaohongshu's standard cover size?
3:4 vertical, recommended 1080×1440 pixels (sharp + reasonable size) or 1242×1660 (high-DPI for Plus-size iPhones). Other ratios get white-bordered or cropped by the app, hurting visual impact.
Why do my covers get no clicks?
Xiaohongshu's algorithm favors big-headline text covers with high-contrast colors and emoji accents. Multiple analyses on Digitaling and Zhihu show this pattern. Our templates encode these principles.
Can I keep consistent visual identity across a series?
Yes — duplicate cover settings to maintain consistent fonts, colors, and layout across a series, boosting follow conversion.
What's the file size limit?
Xiaohongshu allows up to 32MB per image, but <1MB is plenty for clarity. Run through the compressor before upload.
Can I use emoji?
Yes — paste any emoji directly. The font system renders full-color emoji automatically.
