How to crop an image online

01

Add your image

Drag and drop an image, or add up to 30 at once. JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and GIF are supported, and your files never leave your device.

02

Select the area to keep

Drag inside the frame to move the selection and pull any of the eight handles to resize it. Lock an aspect ratio first if you need an exact shape, or type precise pixel values.

03

Rotate and straighten

Turn the image in 90° steps, flip it horizontally or vertically, and use the straighten slider to level a tilted horizon without clipping the corners.

04

Export at full resolution

The preview is scaled for speed, but the export always uses your original full-resolution pixels. Download one image or all of them as a ZIP.

Every image is cropped locally inside your browser using canvas rendering. We do not upload, process or store your files on any server, which means complete privacy and instant results even on slow connections.

Which aspect ratio should you use?

Cropping to the ratio a platform expects stops it from cropping for you, which is how faces end up cut off in feeds and thumbnails.

RatioTypically used for
1:1Instagram posts, profile pictures, product thumbnails
4:5Instagram portrait posts — the tallest feed format
9:16Stories, Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts
16:9YouTube thumbnails, presentations, website heroes
3:2Standard DSLR photographs and most print sizes
2:3Pinterest pins and portrait prints
21:9Cinematic banners and wide headers

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping reduce image quality?

Cropping itself removes pixels rather than degrading them, so the part you keep stays exactly as sharp as the original. The only quality decision is the export format: PNG is lossless, while JPEG, WebP and AVIF have a quality control.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs in your browser using the HTML canvas API. Your images are never transmitted, logged or stored anywhere.

Can I crop to an exact pixel size?

Yes. The crop area fields accept exact X, Y, width and height values in pixels, and they stay in sync with the frame you drag on screen.

Can I crop several images the same way?

Yes. Add multiple images, set the crop on one of them, then use “Apply this crop to all”. The crop is stored proportionally, so it adapts sensibly to images of different sizes.

Why does the preview look smaller than my image?

The preview is scaled down so dragging stays responsive on large photographs. Your selection is stored proportionally and applied to the full-resolution original when you export, so no detail is lost.

What is the difference between cropping and resizing?

Cropping removes part of an image, changing what is visible. Resizing keeps the whole image but changes its pixel dimensions. Use the image resizer if you want to keep everything in frame, or the image compressor to reduce file size.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The crop handles are sized for touch, and the settings live in a floating bar at the bottom of the screen so they are always within reach.
