The overlay follows each app's current layout from the apps' own App Store screenshots, with placeholder names and counts. No platform publishes exact safe zones for normal posts, so the shaded areas are approximate, set near the middle of several third-party guides and reviewed 14 November 2026. Apps change their layouts often, so always check a test post on a real phone. The whole 9:16 frame is shown here. On tall phones like the iPhone Pro, some apps fill the screen and trim a little from the sides.
