End screen element sizes, measured
YouTube Help says end screens go in the last 5 to 20 seconds of a video at least 25 seconds long, with up to four elements on a 16:9 video, but it gives no pixel sizes. So we measured them: YouTube's player loads each end screen as data, with every element's position and width as a share of the frame. Across 155 elements on 77 public 16:9 videos from 16 channels, read on October 16, 2026, video boxes ran from 620 × 349 to 862 × 485 on a 1920 × 1080 frame, and subscribe, channel and link elements were all 296 × 296.
| Element | On a 1920 × 1080 frame | What we saw |
|---|---|---|
| Video | 620 × 349 to 862 × 485 | 93 measured: 67 at 620 × 349, the smallest, and 18 at 862 × 485, the largest |
| Playlist | 862 × 485 | Both we found. The checker gives playlists the video size range, since both are 16:9 boxes |
| Subscribe or channel | 296 × 296, drawn as a circle | All 33 we measured |
| Link | 296 × 296 | All 27 we measured |
| Furthest out | 44 px from the left and right, 141 px from the top, 164 px from the bottom | No element sat closer to an edge; the dashed outline in the checker |
This template lays out two 620 × 349 video boxes either side of a subscribe circle, all inside the dashed area no measured element went past: 44 pixels from the sides, 141 from the top and 164 from the bottom. Put it on the top track over the last 20 seconds, design the outro around the boxes, then hide it before you export and add the real elements in YouTube Studio on the same spots.

What size is the YouTube end screen template?
It is 1920 × 1080 pixels, the size of a 1080p video, with a transparent background. For a 4K edit, scale it to 3840 × 2160 and the boxes stay in proportion.
What size are YouTube end screen elements?
YouTube doesn’t publish them. In the 155 elements we measured on 1920 × 1080 frames, video and playlist boxes ran from 620 × 349 to 862 × 485 pixels, and subscribe, channel and link elements were 296 × 296; subscribe and channel elements show as circles.
How do I use the end screen template in Premiere Pro or CapCut?
Put the PNG on the top video track over the last 5 to 20 seconds and fill the frame with it (in Premiere Pro, right-click it and choose Set to Frame Size). Build the outro around the boxes, turn the template track off before you export, then add the real elements in YouTube Studio on the same spots.
How long is a YouTube end screen?
YouTube lets you add one to the last 5 to 20 seconds of a video that is at least 25 seconds long. Whatever sits under the boxes is covered while they show, so keep faces and text clear of them for that stretch.
Can I change the layout?
Yes. Drop the last frame of your edit, or the video, in the checker on this page, add up to four elements, drag them into place and download that layout as a PNG.
