What is Image Cropper? Image Cropping is the process of removing unwanted outer areas from a photographic or illustrated image. This tool provides a visual interface where you can drag a box over your image to select exactly the part you want to keep. It includes presets for common aspect ratios like Square (1:1), Landscape (16:9), and Portrait (4:5), making it perfect for preparing profile pictures, cover photos, or posts for various platforms. Like our other tools, it runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions Does cropping reduce resolution? Yes, because you are cutting out parts of the image. The new image will be smaller in pixels than the original.
Can I undo a crop? Yes! You can adjust the box as much as you want before you download.
What is aspect ratio? It's the shape of the image. 1:1 is a square (like Instagram). 16:9 is a rectangle (like YouTube).
Is it secure? Yes. Your photos stay on your device. I don't see them.
Can I crop into a circle? I crop to a square. When you upload it to Instagram or Twitter, they will cut it into a circle for you.
Does it support transparent PNGs? Yes! If you crop a transparent PNG, the background stays transparent.
Is there a file size limit? I can handle most images, but if you try to load a massive 50MB raw photo, your browser might slow down.
