How it works & supported files

Crop exactly what you see

Drag the selection or its corners, choose a ratio, or enter exact coordinates. Ratio presets start with the largest centered rectangle that fits, rounded to whole pixels. Coordinates start at the top-left of the image after its EXIF orientation is applied. The crop must fit entirely inside the image.

Static images, processed on your device

Supports static PNG, 8-bit grayscale/RGB JPEG, and static WebP as listed by this tool. Animation, SVG, HEIC, AVIF, and CMYK JPEG are not supported. EXIF orientation is applied before editing. Re-encoding removes source metadata and color profiles, can change colors, and reduces high-bit-depth images to browser canvas output. JPEG and WebP output may change pixels. For transparency, choose PNG or WebP. Outputs are limited to 100 MiB.

About this tool

Crop image removes the parts of a picture you do not need, with draggable handles, optional aspect ratios, and exact pixel entry for precise work. It is useful for preparing thumbnails, profile images, and screenshots.

The crop is applied to a locally decoded copy and EXIF orientation is handled before editing, so the result matches what you saw. The original file remains untouched on your device.

How to use it

  1. Choose the image and wait for it to load.
  2. Drag the crop handles or type exact pixel values.
  3. Lock an aspect ratio if the result must fit a specific frame.
  4. Apply the crop and download the new image.

Worked example

Choosing the 16:9 preset on a 4000 × 3000 photo starts with the largest centred 16:9 rectangle that fits: 4000 × 2250 pixels, starting 375 pixels from the top. Drag it to reframe, or type exact coordinates. X and Y are measured from the top-left corner of the image as it is displayed, after its EXIF orientation is applied.

Common aspect ratios

  • 1:1: profile pictures, product thumbnails, and square social posts.
  • 4:5: portrait posts on Instagram, which take up more of the feed than squares.
  • 16:9: video thumbnails, presentation slides, and hero banners.
  • 1.91:1 (1200 × 630 px): link preview images for Open Graph cards.
  • 3:2: classic camera and print proportions, such as 6 × 4 inch prints.

The presets cover square, 4:3, and 16:9. For other ratios, enter exact coordinates and a size. Cropping only removes pixels, so the remaining area keeps its full resolution. If the crop needs to fit an exact output size, such as 1200 × 630, crop to the ratio first and then resize.

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping reduce quality?

The cropped area keeps its pixels, but the file is re-encoded when saved, which removes source metadata and can slightly change compression.

Can I crop outside the image bounds?

No. The crop is clamped to the image so the output always has valid dimensions.

What formats are supported?

Static PNG, standard RGB or grayscale JPEG, and static WebP. Animated images, SVG, HEIC, AVIF, and CMYK JPEG are not supported.

Is the cropped image re-compressed?

The cropped pixels are encoded again in the output format. PNG output is lossless. JPEG and WebP output use lossy compression, so choose a high quality if you plan to edit the image further.
