Frequently asked questions

How do I crop an image to a specific size?

Watch the pixel dimensions displayed below the image as you drag the handles. Set the crop width and height to your exact target — for example, 1080×1080 for an Instagram square. Then use the image resizer after cropping if you need to hit an exact pixel count rather than just an aspect ratio.

How do I crop a circle from an image?

Crop to a square first (match width and height), then use CSS border-radius: 50% in your web project to display it as a circle. For a PNG with a transparent circular cutout, use the background remover after cropping.

How do I crop an image without losing quality?

Download as PNG for lossless output — no compression is applied to the cropped pixels. Download as JPG if file size matters; we use 92% quality which is visually lossless. Either way, the pixels inside your crop area are untouched.

How do I crop an image for Instagram?

For a square post, crop to a 1:1 ratio (equal width and height). For portrait, aim for a 4:5 ratio (width ≈ 0.8× height). For landscape, use 1.91:1 (width ≈ 1.91× height). After cropping, use the image resizer to set the final pixel dimensions.

Can I crop multiple images at once?

The tool crops one image at a time. Each crop takes about 5 seconds total — upload, set handles, download.

What image formats can I crop?

Any format your browser supports: JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, AVIF. The result downloads as JPG or PNG. For HEIC photos from iPhone, convert to JPG first then crop here.

Does cropping an image reduce quality?

No — cropping just removes pixels outside the selection. The remaining pixels are pixel-perfect copies of the original. The only quality decision is whether you download as JPG (compressed) or PNG (lossless).
