🔒 Photos are cropped only inside this browser on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and the cropped file carries no location or camera data.

Crop Image is a free web tool for keeping just the part of a photo you want. Lock the box to a ratio and drag it where you need it.

How to crop an image

  1. Click Choose photos and pick an image. Load several and pick one at a time from the list.
  2. If you need a set shape, press a ratio button such as 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 first. Leave it on Free to crop any shape.
  3. Drag the box to move it and pull the handles to resize. The cropped size is shown in pixels.
  4. Click Crop and download. Press Whole photo to start over.

Crop to the ratio and nothing gets cut off

Profile pictures are 1:1, Instagram portraits are 4:5, thumbnails are 16:9. Crop without a ratio and the site crops it again for you, often across someone's face. Press a ratio button first and the box keeps that shape, so what you see is what gets posted.

Cropping itself does not re-compress the picture: the selected area is taken at full resolution. Cropped files carry no camera or GPS metadata.

FAQ

Is the image cropper free?

It is free, with no install and no sign-up. Crop and download straight from the browser.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. Photos are cropped only inside the browser on your device, so it even works offline.

Can I crop to a fixed ratio?

Yes: 1:1 for profiles, 4:5 for Instagram portraits, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9 for wide video and 9:16 for shorts and reels. The box keeps whichever you pick.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. Drag the box with your finger and pull the red handles to resize it.

Does cropping reduce quality?

The crop itself does not: the area is taken at full resolution. Only switching the format to JPG re-encodes the file.

Can I crop several photos?

Load as many as you like and crop them one at a time from the list, since the right crop differs for every photo.
