X (Twitter) Header Guidelines & Best Practices

Twitter profile banners have dynamic responsive cropping across desktop, iOS, and Android apps. Here is how Header Name guarantees a flawless layout:

01

Mobile Avatar Crop Avoidance

On mobile screens, your profile photo overlaps the bottom-left corner of your header. We align key text to the center-right to avoid obstruction.

02

Responsive Vertical Padding

Different browser viewport widths scale and crop up to 60px from the top and bottom borders. All typography stays within verified safe bands.

03

High-DPI Retina Clarity

Exports at full 1500 × 500 px resolution so your tagline and handles remain crisp on 4K monitors and mobile OLED screens.
