How do I crop an image to a specific size?

Upload your image, then select a preset aspect ratio (1:1, 4:3, 16:9, etc.) or use free-form cropping to select any custom size. The crop box can be resized by dragging the corners or edges.

Can I crop a photo into a circle?

Yes! Select the 1:1 aspect ratio to create a square crop, which is perfect for circular profile pictures. Export as PNG to preserve transparency if needed.

Does cropping reduce image quality?

No. Our tool crops without recompressing your image, so you keep the original quality. You can export at 100% quality with no compression artifacts.

Is this image cropper really free?

Yes, 100% free with no watermarks, no signup required, and no hidden fees. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to any server.

What image formats are supported?

You can upload PNG, JPG, JPEG, WebP, and GIF images. Export is available in PNG (lossless) or JPG (smaller file size) formats.
