Crop Image
Crop a photo to any area with a draggable selection box. Fast, free and in your browser.
Select or drop your image
JPG, PNG, WebP
Cropping removes everything outside the part of the photo you actually want — tightening the framing, cutting distractions, or fitting an image to a specific shape. Crop Image gives you a draggable selection box so you can pick the exact area by eye, then export just that region.
How to crop image
- 1. Add your image.
- 2. Drag and resize the selection box over the part you want to keep.
- 3. Crop and download the result.
When to use Crop Image
Tighten the framing
Cut empty space around the subject so the important part fills the frame.
Remove something at the edge
Crop out a photobomber, a stray object or a timestamp at the border.
Fit a required shape
Trim to the aspect ratio a profile picture or banner needs.
Aspect ratios for every platform
Pick a ratio and the crop box locks to it: 1:1 for profile pictures and square posts, 4:5 for portrait Instagram posts, 16:9 for YouTube thumbnails, slides and desktop wallpapers, 9:16 for Stories, Reels and TikTok, 4:3 and 3:2 for classic photo prints. The exact size in pixels is shown under the image while you adjust. A cropped JPG stays a JPG, so the file doesn't balloon in size.
Frequently asked questions
Can I crop to an exact area?
Yes — drag and resize the selection box freely to frame precisely what you want to keep.
Does cropping reduce quality?
No. Cropping keeps the original pixels of the area you selected; it just discards the rest.
Is my photo uploaded?
No — cropping runs in your browser.
