Image Cropper

Trim a photo to the part that matters. Drag the crop box freely, lock it to a common shape such as 1:1 or the 35:45 passport ratio, then rotate or flip the picture before saving a JPG or PNG.

How to use this tool

  1. Load a picture. Choose a JPG, PNG or WebP file up to 20 MB. The photo appears inside a crop box with handles on each corner and edge.
  2. Set the shape. Keep Free crop for total control, or pick 1:1 for an avatar, 4:5 for a portrait feed post, 16:9 for a video still, or 35:45 for a passport photo.
  3. Frame the subject. Drag the box to move it and pull the handles to resize it. Scroll or pinch to zoom when you need to place a small detail precisely.
  4. Rotate or flip if needed. The four buttons turn the photo in 90 degree steps or mirror it. Every change is reflected in the preview below.
  5. Save the crop. Pick JPG or PNG, set the JPG quality, and download. The output contains only the area inside the box.

Why use this tool

A crop is often the difference between a usable profile picture and a face that sits half outside the circle. This cropper shows the exact frame before you commit, so you can see whether a head is centred or a background sign is about to intrude. The aspect presets remove the mental arithmetic: choose 1:1 and the box simply cannot drift out of square.

Rotating a phone photo that was taken sideways is a common annoyance, and some galleries only offer a destructive rotate. Here rotation and mirroring are live adjustments you can undo by pressing the opposite button. The browser does all the work, so personal photos and identity documents never pass through a server, and the download happens in one step rather than after an upload and an email link.

Frequently asked questions

Is the image uploaded while I crop it?
No. The crop box, rotation and final export all run in your browser, so the photo stays on your device from start to finish.
Does cropping reduce the image quality?
The crop itself uses the original pixels. A JPG is compressed again when you save it, so keep the quality slider high if you plan to edit the file further. Choose PNG if you need a lossless result.
What does the 35:45 passport option do?
It locks the crop box to the 35 mm by 45 mm passport photo ratio. The pixel size depends on the resolution needed by the form you are filling in; after cropping, use the Image Resizer to reach an exact pixel size such as 413 × 531 px.
Can I rotate or flip the photo?
Yes. Rotate in 90 degree steps and flip horizontally or vertically. The preview and the downloaded crop both include the changes, so what you see is what you get.
