About the Image Cropper

Our free online image cropper lets you select and extract exactly the part of a PNG, JPEG, or WEBP image you need. Drag the selection box to reposition it, drag a handle to resize it, or lock it to a 1:1, 16:9, or 4:3 ratio — perfect for profile pictures, thumbnails, and social media posts.

Unlike most online tools, cropping happens entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API — your image is never uploaded to a server. That means it's fast, works without an internet round-trip, and keeps your files completely private and secure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data safe?

Yes. Cropping happens entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API — your image is never uploaded to a server, so it stays completely private.

What image formats are supported?

You can upload most common image formats and export the cropped result as PNG, JPEG, or WEBP.

Does it cost money?

No. The crop tool is 100% free to use, with no registration or account required.

Will cropping reduce my image quality?

No. Cropping simply extracts a rectangular region of existing pixels, so the quality of the cropped area is fully preserved.

What are the aspect ratio presets for?

Freeform lets you drag the crop box to any shape. The 1:1, 16:9, and 4:3 presets lock the box to a fixed ratio, which is useful for profile pictures, widescreen thumbnails, or standard photo prints.

Does the crop tool work on mobile and touch screens?

Yes. The crop box and its resize handles respond to touch drag gestures just as they do to mouse drag, so you can crop images comfortably on a phone or tablet.
