About this tool
The Image Cropper lets you upload an image, set a custom aspect ratio, and pan or zoom to frame the perfect crop. The final image is rendered in your browser and downloaded as a PNG — originals never leave your device.

Frequently asked questions
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Cropping runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent over the network.
What image formats are supported?
Any format your browser can decode: JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF (first frame). The output is always PNG to preserve transparency.
Will cropping reduce image quality?
The crop itself is lossless. However, if your source is JPEG, the data is already compressed before cropping.
Can I crop very large images?
Most phones and laptops handle images up to ~20 megapixels comfortably. Beyond that the browser may run out of memory.
