How to Use Image Crop Tool

To crop an image, upload it by clicking the upload area or dragging it onto the page. A drag-to-select crop region appears on the image preview. Click and drag to define the area you want to keep, and adjust the handles to refine your selection. You can enter exact pixel coordinates for precise cropping.

Once you are satisfied with the crop selection, click Crop to apply it and generate the cropped image. A preview shows the result before you download. This is useful for removing unwanted borders, focusing on a specific subject, or preparing images to specific dimensions for social media or web use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I crop to a specific aspect ratio? expand_more

Yes. You can lock the crop selection to common aspect ratios such as 1:1 (square), 4:3, 16:9, or enter custom dimensions to enforce a precise ratio.

Does cropping reduce image quality? expand_more

No. Cropping removes pixels from outside the selected area but does not re-compress or degrade the quality of the pixels within the crop region.

Can I undo a crop and try a different selection? expand_more

Yes. Before downloading, you can adjust the crop selection or re-upload the original image to start with a fresh selection.

What image formats does the crop tool support? expand_more

The crop tool supports JPG, PNG, and WebP images. The output can be downloaded as a PNG or JPG file.
