About this tool

Cropping is the fastest way to reframe a photo, remove distracting edges, or fit an image to a required ratio such as a profile picture or a banner.

The cropper shows the output size in pixels as you adjust the selection, so you always know exactly what you will get before you export.

When to use it: to frame a subject, remove distractions, or fit a required shape such as a square avatar or 16:9 cover.

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping reduce image quality?
Cropping keeps the original pixels inside the selection, so the remaining area keeps its full quality. The overall pixel count drops because you are removing part of the image.
What aspect ratios are available?
Free-form, square (1:1), 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9. You can also type an exact width and height.
Which formats can I crop?
Any image your browser can open — JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and others. You can export as PNG, JPEG or WebP.
Can I crop to an exact pixel size?
Yes — type the width and height you need and the selection locks to exactly that size, which is handy for avatars and upload forms with strict requirements.
Does cropping work on a phone?
Yes. The selection handles are touch-friendly and the whole tool is laid out for small screens, so you can crop straight from your camera roll.
What should I keep in mind when cropping a profile photo?
Leave a little space around the face and keep the eyes in the upper third of the frame — most platforms display avatars as small circles, so tight crops lose the chin or hair.
