Quick Tool Overview

The Image Cropper puts a draggable frame over your photo and cuts out exactly what is inside it. Drag freely, lock the frame to a ratio when the destination needs one, or type exact pixel coordinates when you are matching a spec. The full-resolution crop is applied to the original, not to the preview, and the file never leaves your device.

About the Image Cropper

Cropping is the edit that improves a photograph more often than any other, because most pictures contain something that is not the subject. Drag the frame over the part you want, nudge the edges until the composition sits right, and take the result.

The frame can be dragged freely, locked to a ratio when the destination demands one, or typed in as exact pixel coordinates when you are matching a spec. The readout under the image always shows the true output size, so you know whether a crop has left you enough resolution before you commit to it. Because the work happens on a canvas inside your own browser, a screenshot holding customer data or a photograph of a document is as safe here as it is in your own pictures folder.

Key features of the Image Cropper

Drag, or type exact pixels

Move and resize the frame by hand, or enter X, Y, width and height directly when a spec has to be matched precisely.

Ratio lock

Constrain the frame to square, 4:5, 16:9, 9:16 or a custom ratio so the crop cannot drift off shape.

Live pixel readout

The true output size is shown as you drag, so you know whether the crop leaves enough resolution before you commit.

Full-resolution output

The preview is scaled to fit your screen but the crop is applied to the original pixels, so nothing is downsampled by accident.

Nothing is uploaded

Decoding and cropping both happen on a canvas in your browser, which makes it safe for screenshots holding private data.

How to use the Image Cropper

  1. 1

    Add your image

    Drop a file onto the box or click to choose one. JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF and SVG all work.

  2. 2

    Drag the crop frame

    Move the frame by its middle and resize it by any corner. The pixel size updates as you drag.

  3. 3

    Lock a ratio if you need one

    Choose square, 4:5, 16:9 or 9:16 when the crop has to land on a fixed shape.

  4. 4

    Download the crop

    Save it as PNG to keep transparency, or JPEG when the file size matters more.

Frequently asked questions

No. Cropping only discards pixels outside the frame; the ones you keep are untouched. Quality is only lost if you then save as JPEG at a low setting, which is a separate choice.
