How to crop an image

Choose a photo, drag it onto the page or paste it (JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF or GIF, up to 50 MB).
Pick a shape such as 1:1, 16:9 or Passport, or leave it on Free. Drag the box or its handles, or type an exact X, Y, width and height in pixels.
Rotate left or right, flip, or straighten a tilted photo by up to 45°. The size and file size update as you go.
Download. The file is named like beach-cropped.jpg.

With the keyboard

Tab to the crop box and use the arrow keys to move it. Hold Shift to resize it, or Alt for one-pixel steps. Each handle can also be focused and moved with the arrow keys.

Circle crop for profile pictures

Tick "Circle". The shape switches to 1:1 and the photo is saved as a PNG with a transparent outside, ready for a profile picture. Choose JPG instead to get a white outside.

Good to know

Is my photo uploaded?

No. Cropping happens in your browser and nothing is sent to a server. No uploads, no sign-up, no file-count limits, no watermarks.

Does it lower the quality?

PNG stays lossless. JPG and WebP are saved again at high quality (92%), which most people can't tell apart from the original.

Is the photo's location data kept?

No. The cropped image is a new file without the original's EXIF details, such as GPS location or the camera model.

Why do straightened photos get a little smaller?

A turned photo has empty corners. The crop stays inside the photo, so the result is slightly smaller instead of having blank corners.

Can I crop an iPhone HEIC photo?

Only in browsers that can open HEIC, such as Safari. Elsewhere, set the camera to "Most Compatible" or export the photo as JPG first.
