About this tool
An image cropper removes unwanted outer areas or creates a composition with a precise aspect ratio. Drag a free selection or choose 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16, or 4:5. You can also rotate the source in 90-degree steps and flip it horizontally or vertically.
Cropping and transforms occur inside your browser, with no file uploaded and no image retained after the tab closes. The export is rendered from the original full-resolution image rather than a smaller screen preview. Choose PNG, JPG, or WebP for the finished crop according to the transparency and file needs of your destination.
