About this tool

Cropping trims away everything outside a selected rectangle — useful for focusing on a subject, fitting an image into a square avatar, or matching a 16:9 video thumbnail. This tool shows your photo full-size with a draggable, resizable selection box you control directly with your mouse or finger.

Pick a fixed ratio — square (1:1), standard photo (4:3) or widescreen (16:9) — to keep the crop locked to that shape as you resize it, or choose Free to select any rectangle you like. The final image is rendered from the original resolution, not a downscaled preview, so quality is preserved within the cropped area.

Why use it

  • Visual, drag-to-select cropping
  • Fixed ratios: 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, or fully free-form
  • Full original resolution preserved in the crop
  • Works with JPG, PNG and WebP
  • No file is ever uploaded to a server

Frequently asked questions

Can I crop to an exact square for a profile picture?

Yes — choose the 1:1 ratio, position the box over the part of the photo you want, and crop. The output will be a perfect square.

Does cropping reduce image quality?

No quality is lost within the cropped area — the tool reads pixels from the original full-resolution image, not a shrunk preview.

Can I switch ratios after I've already positioned the box?

Yes, switching ratio presets recalculates the box; you can then reposition it as needed.

What if I want an unusual, non-standard crop shape?

Choose 'Free' and drag any corner independently to create whatever rectangle you need.

Is there a size limit for photos I can crop?

There's no server-imposed limit since cropping happens locally — very large photos are only limited by your device's memory.
