How to use

  1. Add your image. Drag and drop a photo onto the page, or click to browse and pick a file from your device.
  2. Set the crop area. Drag the handles to frame your crop freely, or choose an aspect-ratio or social-media preset to lock the shape.
  3. Adjust and refine. Rotate, flip or zoom to line things up, and switch to circle crop for a round profile picture on a transparent background.
  4. Download your crop. Choose PNG, JPG or WebP as the output format and download the cropped image straight to your device.

Features

  • Freeform and ratio presets. Crop by eye with free handles, or lock to 1:1, 16:9, 4:3, 3:2 or 9:16 for a perfectly proportioned result.
  • Social-media presets. One-click sizes for Instagram square and portrait, Story and TikTok, Facebook, YouTube thumbnails and LinkedIn.
  • Circle crop with transparency. Turn any photo into a round profile picture and export as a transparent PNG, ready for avatars and logos.
  • Rotate, flip and zoom. Straighten a tilted shot, mirror it, or zoom in to frame exactly the part of the image you want to keep.
  • No upload, no sign-up. Everything runs in your browser with no account, no watermark and no download paywall, unlike many online editors.

When to use it

  • Crop a portrait to a perfect 1:1 square for an Instagram post or profile photo.
  • Make a round circle crop with a transparent background for an avatar or team headshot.
  • Trim a screenshot down to just the part you want to share or annotate.
  • Resize a photo to a 9:16 crop for an Instagram Story, TikTok or Reels cover.
  • Frame a 16:9 crop for a YouTube thumbnail without opening heavy desktop software.

Is it private?

All images are cropped locally in your browser and are never uploaded to any server.

Frequently asked questions

Is this image cropper free?

Yes, it is completely free with no sign-up, no watermark and no limits on how many images you crop.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. All cropping happens locally in your browser, so your photos never leave your device and nothing is sent to us, unlike tools that upload your file first.

How do I crop an image into a circle?

Switch to circle crop, position the round selection over your subject, and export as a transparent PNG for a clean round profile picture.

Can I crop for Instagram, TikTok or YouTube?

Yes. Pick a social-media preset for Instagram square or portrait, Story and TikTok, Facebook, YouTube thumbnails or LinkedIn to get the exact aspect ratio each platform expects.

Which output formats can I download?

You can save your crop as PNG, JPG or WebP. Use PNG or WebP to keep transparency from a circle crop, or JPG for the smallest photo files.

Do I need to sign up or pay to download?

No. Unlike Canva or Fotor, which can gate downloads behind a login or plan, you crop and download here instantly with no account and no watermark.
