How to crop an image online

Three steps. The handles do the work.

01
Drop your image in
JPG, PNG, or WebP. Drag it onto the tool or click to browse. Nothing is sent anywhere — the Canvas API handles everything locally.
02
Select what you want to keep
Drag the handles to draw the crop area. Pick a preset ratio (1:1, 4:3, 16:9, etc.) to lock the proportions, or type exact pixel coordinates if you need a specific size. The preview updates as you drag.
03
Download
Click Crop. Same format comes back — PNG in, PNG out. No recompression, no quality loss.

When you'd reach for this

Profile photos need to be square

LinkedIn, Twitter, and most apps display profile pictures as circles or squares. Lock the ratio to 1:1, drag to frame your face, done. No need to open Photoshop for a 10-second job.

Every platform has different dimensions

Instagram feed: 1:1 or 4:5. Twitter/X header: 3:1. Facebook cover: roughly 2.7:1. Crop once for each platform rather than uploading the wrong size and letting the platform mangle it.

Cutting out the background clutter

A photo of a product on a messy desk, a screenshot with a browser toolbar, a scanned document with a hand in the corner — crop to the subject and the rest disappears.

Thumbnails for blog posts and videos

The most interesting part of an image is rarely the centre. Crop to the face, the action, or the detail that makes someone click — then resize to the thumbnail dimensions.

Scanned documents

Phone photos of documents always have extra background. Crop to the edges of the page and you get something that looks like a proper scan without needing a scanner.

E-commerce product grids

A grid of products looks broken when images are different shapes. Crop everything to the same ratio — 1:1 is standard — before uploading to Shopify, WooCommerce, or wherever.

JPG, PNG, and WebP. The output format matches the input.

Type the coordinates directly into the input fields. Or drag the handles and read the pixel values as you go.

Select a preset (1:1, 4:3, 16:9, etc.) and the selection locks to that ratio as you drag. You can also type a custom ratio.
