Image Cropper

Universal format, best for photos. No transparency.

90%

Drag on the image to draw a new crop frame — drag inside to move it, or use the corner handle to resize.

Image Cropper

Trim an image down to exactly what matters. Drag the crop frame directly on your photo, snap it to a preset ratio like 1:1 for avatars or 16:9 for banners, fine-tune the position numerically, and export as JPEG, PNG, WebP or AVIF. Everything runs in your browser — no uploads, no watermarks.

Drag, Snap, Done

Draw a new crop frame anywhere on the image, drag it into position, or resize it from the corner handle. The aspect-ratio presets keep the frame proportional — 1:1 for profile pictures, 4:3 and 3:4 for prints and posts, 16:9 and 9:16 for video thumbnails and stories. Prefer exact numbers? Type the X, Y, width and height values directly.

Crop Without Quality Loss

Cropping copies pixels 1:1 — nothing is resampled, so the kept region stays as sharp as the original. The only quality decision left is the export format: JPEG for photos, PNG for transparency, WebP or AVIF for the smallest web-ready files, with an adjustable quality level for the lossy formats.

Private by Design

Traditional cropper sites upload your photos to a server before trimming. Here the browser does the work: decode, crop and re-encode all happen on your machine. Nothing is transmitted, stored or logged.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I crop an image to a square?

Drop your image in, click the 1:1 ratio preset, drag the frame over the area you want to keep, and click Crop. The frame stays perfectly square as you resize it.

Does cropping reduce image quality?

No — cropping copies the selected pixels exactly as they are, with no resampling. A 400 × 400 crop from a 4000 × 3000 photo is pixel-identical to that region of the original.

Can I set the crop position numerically?

Yes. The X, Y, width and height inputs stay in sync with the frame as you drag, and you can type exact pixel values for surgical precision.

Which ratio should I use for profile pictures and banners?

Avatars are almost always 1:1. YouTube thumbnails and Twitter/X headers fit 16:9, Instagram stories and reels fit 9:16, and classic photo prints use 4:3 or 3:4.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Cropping and re-encoding happen entirely inside your browser tab — there is no upload step, no queue and no server-side storage.
