How to Crop an Image

Three steps, all in your browser.

1

Add your image

Drag a file onto the drop zone or click to browse. JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF and BMP are all accepted, and the file never leaves your device.

2

Frame the crop

Drag the box to move it and pull the corners to resize. Pick an aspect ratio — 1:1, 16:9, 4:3, 3:2 or 9:16 — to lock the shape, or leave it on Free. The live size shows the exact crop in original pixels.

3

Crop and download

Pick an output format, click Crop, preview the result and download it. Want to change the size or file weight next? Use the Image Resizer or Image Compressor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does cropping upload my image to a server?
No. The cropper runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image is loaded, cropped and downloaded on your own device — it is never sent to a server, logged or stored. That makes it safe for private photos, screenshots and confidential graphics, and it keeps working offline once the page has loaded. Closing the tab clears everything.
How do I crop to a specific aspect ratio?
Pick a ratio above the image — 1:1 for a square profile picture, 16:9 for a video thumbnail or banner, 4:3 or 3:2 for classic photo prints, or 9:16 for a phone or story format. The crop box snaps to that shape and keeps it while you drag the corners. Choose Free to crop to any size you like.
Does cropping lose any quality?
Cropping itself is lossless — it simply keeps the pixels inside the box at their original resolution and discards the rest, so there is no resampling. Any quality change comes only from the output format: PNG is lossless, while JPG and WEBP re-encode with a quality slider you control. Keep the source format for an exact crop, or switch formats if you also want a smaller file.
What size will the cropped image be?
Exactly the pixel size shown under the crop box, measured in the original image's resolution — not the size it appears on screen. The preview is scaled to fit your window, but the crop is always taken from the full-resolution image, so a crop that reads 1200 × 800 px really is 1200 × 800 pixels in the downloaded file.
Can I resize or compress after cropping?
Yes. Download the crop, then open it in the Image Resizer to change its pixel dimensions, or the Image Compressor to shrink the file size while keeping those dimensions. All three tools run in the browser with no upload, so you can chain them without your image ever leaving your device.
