Image Cropper

Add your photo — drag and drop it, click Select Image, or paste from your clipboard (Ctrl/Cmd+V). JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and BMP are supported.

Frame it — pick an aspect ratio preset (1:1, 16:9, 4:5, 9:16, cinematic) or drag the corner handles freely. Click "Circle Mask" for a round crop, and use the toolbar to zoom, rotate, or flip.

Export and download — choose JPG, PNG, or WebP and a quality level, then click "Download Image". Use PNG or WebP for a circle crop so the corners stay transparent. ```

Yes. The cropper runs entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript, so your photo is processed on your own device and never uploaded to a server. Nothing is stored once you close the tab. That makes it safe for personal or sensitive images, and it works instantly regardless of your connection because there's no upload step.

Click the "Circle Mask" button in the presets panel and the crop area becomes a circle. Position it over the part of the photo you want, then export. Choose PNG or WebP as the output format so the corners outside the circle stay transparent — if you export a circle crop as JPG, those corners are filled with a solid background instead.

Yes. Use the Dimensions (px) fields to type the width and height you need, and the crop box matches them. This is handy when a platform requires a precise size — say a 1200×630 share image. Combine it with an aspect-ratio preset to keep the proportions locked while you fine-tune the area you're keeping.

No — cropping simply removes the pixels outside your selection, so the part you keep stays as sharp as the original. Quality only drops if you crop a very small area and then enlarge it, since there's no extra detail to add. Keep the export quality slider at 90% or higher to preserve clarity in the final file.

The presets cover the common ones: Freeform (drag any shape), 1:1 Square, 16:9 Video, 4:3 Photo, 4:5 Instagram, 9:16 Story, 2.35:1 Cinematic, and a Circle Mask. Pick a preset to lock that ratio while you drag, or choose Freeform to crop to any shape by hand. You can also enter exact pixel dimensions for full control.

You can import most common formats — JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and BMP. For export, you can save as JPG (best for photographs), PNG (best for graphics, transparency, and circle crops), or WebP (best for small, optimised web files). Choose the export format based on where the cropped image will be used.

Yes. The toolbar above the canvas has rotate-left, rotate-right, and flip-horizontal buttons, plus zoom in and out. This is useful when a photo imported sideways or mirrored — straighten or flip it first, frame your crop, then export. A reset button puts everything back if you want to start the crop over.

Yes. Copy an image anywhere — a screenshot, a picture from a web page — and paste it straight into the cropper with Ctrl+V (or Cmd+V on a Mac), or drop a file in. It loads into the workspace instantly, with no upload, which makes quick crops of screenshots especially fast.

Cropping cuts away part of the image to change its framing or shape, keeping the rest at full resolution. Resizing changes the overall pixel dimensions of the whole image without removing any content. If you want to trim or reshape, crop here; if you want to scale the entire image up or down, use the Image Resizer instead.

Use the matching preset: 1:1 or 4:5 for Instagram feed posts, 9:16 for Stories and Reels, and 16:9 for a YouTube thumbnail. Select the preset, drag the locked box over the part of the photo you want to keep, and export. The ratio stays fixed as you adjust, so the result fits the platform without awkward cropping later.

Yes. It's touch-optimised, so on a modern mobile browser you can pinch to zoom and drag the crop handles with your finger. If it doesn't respond, make sure JavaScript is enabled and a strict ad-blocker isn't breaking page scripts. No app is needed — it runs right in the phone's browser.

This is a general cropper with many ratio presets, including a circle option, plus rotate, flip, and exact-size cropping. The Circle Image Cropper is a focused tool for one job — turning a photo into a clean round avatar quickly. Use this page when you need flexible shapes and controls; use the circle tool when you specifically want a round crop.
