Why 1920×1080 Pixels?
Most webcams record in 1080p (1920×1080). Matching your virtual background to this resolution means Zoom doesn't have to scale the image, resulting in sharper backgrounds with better edge detection around your silhouette.
Look Professional Anywhere
A well-designed virtual background lets you take calls from anywhere without revealing your location. Office backgrounds, branded backdrops, or clean minimal designs all work well when properly sized.
Resize Your Virtual Background
