Crop Image
Crop images to the exact area you need with a draggable crop box, then download a PNG or JPEG. Everything runs in your browser.

PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, or AVIF (max 20 MB). Animated inputs are cropped as a single still frame.
Your image is processed locally in your browser - nothing is uploaded to a server.

1
Upload your image
Select an image from your device or drag it into the upload area to open the crop editor.

Common image crop sizes
Choose a fixed aspect ratio for common platforms, or use freeform when you need a custom crop.

Use 1:1 for profile photos, thumbnails, product grids, and balanced social posts.
Widescreen crop
Use 16:9 for banners, video thumbnails, presentation images, and landscape previews.
Portrait crop
Use 9:16 or 3:2 for portrait posts, product previews, and vertical feed images.
Freeform crop
Use freeform when you need a custom crop that does not match a standard ratio.
Crop Image FAQ
Is the Crop Image tool free to use?
Yes. You can crop and download an image without creating an account.
Will cropping reduce image quality?
Cropping removes pixels outside the selected area. The pixels inside the crop keep their original detail; the output dimensions are simply smaller than the original when you trim edges away.
Can I crop images for social media?
Yes. Use 1:1 for profile images and thumbnails, 16:9 for wide previews, or 9:16 for vertical stories and reels covers.
What image formats are supported?
The crop tool accepts PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, and AVIF images. Downloads are PNG or JPEG files, and animated inputs are cropped as a single still frame.
How are cropped files stored?
Cropping happens entirely in your browser. Images are never uploaded to a server, so nothing is stored remotely and files are discarded when you leave the page.
