Crop Image

Why crop an image?

Cropping is the quickest way to make a photo look deliberate. Cut out the distracting edges, straighten a wonky horizon, square up a portrait for a profile picture, or reframe a wide shot to the proportions a platform expects. A good crop pulls the eye to what matters and trims away everything that doesn't. Drag a box over the part you want to keep, or lock it to a ratio first: 1:1 for a square, 16:9 or 3:2 for landscape, 4:3, or your own custom width and height. You can also rotate in quarter turns, flip horizontally or vertically, and nudge a tilted shot back to level with the straighten slider. A live preview shows exactly what you'll get, and you can save as JPG, PNG or WebP. It all happens in your browser, working on the original image, so nothing is uploaded and the picture never leaves your device. (Need an exact pixel or print size, like a passport photo? That's a job for the resize tool, not crop.)

How do I crop an image online for free?

Open your image, drag a box over the part you want to keep (or lock it to a ratio like 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9), then save as JPG, PNG or WebP. It runs entirely in your browser, so the photo is never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

What aspect ratios can I crop to?
Free-form, 1:1 (square), 4:3, 16:9, 3:2, or a custom width-to-height ratio you type in. Pick one and the crop box locks to it, or choose Free to drag any shape. For a tall, portrait crop, set a custom ratio such as 4:5.
Can I straighten or rotate while cropping?
Yes. Rotate in 90-degree turns, flip horizontally or vertically, and use the straighten slider (up to 90 degrees either way) to level a tilted horizon. When you straighten, you choose whether the canvas expands or crops in to fit.
Can I crop to an exact size, like a passport photo?
Cropping sets the shape (the aspect ratio), not an exact size in pixels or centimetres. If you need a specific output size or an ID-photo dimension, resize the image instead. Resize an image
Will cropping reduce the quality?
The area you keep stays at its original resolution; cropping only trims pixels away, it never enlarges or invents them. Saving as JPG or WebP re-encodes at high quality, and PNG stays lossless.
Can I crop several images at once?
Yes. Add a batch and crop each one (every image keeps its own crop box), then download them individually or as a ZIP.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Cropping happens entirely in your browser, so your images never leave your device.
