9:16 10 MB Unified Performance4 MB Campaign Wizard JPGPNG — 2 Medium confidence — verified against reputable sources

Notes & best practice

App promotion campaigns.

Yandex's app pages suggest 1778x1000, 1000x1778 or 1000x1000 px and accept JPG, PNG or GIF from 450x450 px, but the technical limitations table asks for JPG or PNG from 1080 to 5000 px, so the 1080x1920 shown here is a derived size that meets both.

Max image size is 10 MB.

The limits table caps ad text at 75 characters (81 on the app pages).

Companion video: MP4, WebM, MOV, QT, FLV, or AVI.

Video duration 5 to 60 seconds (only the first 15 seconds are used), up to 100 MB, 360p to 4K resolution.

Keep key content and text inside the safe zone — the platform UI overlaps the top and bottom of full-screen 9:16 creatives.
