Platform documentation & further reading:

Check the cover as a thumbnail

Make sure the subject and title are clear at a small size. Leave room around important objects so they are not cut off at the edges. For a series of covers, consistent fonts and colours can help the posts look related.

Separate note guidance from product-image rules

Commerce product images and note covers have different requirements. The learning material’s 3:4 note guidance does not establish a byte limit or a universal pixel size for every Xiaohongshu upload.

Frequently asked questions

Is 1242 × 1656 the official mandatory size?

It is KiiMix’s exact 3:4 output. The cited official product-note guidance supports the ratio; it does not mandate this pixel count.

Does this also cover video thumbnails?

This page targets image-led note covers. The official learning material discusses video covers separately, so do not assume the same crop is appropriate for every video.

Why not use a square cover?

You can switch to the square preset if it suits your image better. This tool starts with a 3:4 portrait crop for a photo-post cover.
