Image Cropper — Crop Photos in Your Browser

How to use

1. Choose a photo with the file picker - it loads onto the canvas and stays on your device.
2. Tap a ratio pill: Free, 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 or 9:16.
3. Drag the dashed crop box until the part you want to keep is framed.
4. Pick the output format - PNG for graphics, JPEG for smaller photo files.
5. Press the Crop & download button and the cropped image saves at the selection's full original resolution.
6. Reload the page to crop another image, since each tab handles one photo at a time.

About this tool

Cropping should not mean uploading your photos to a stranger. Drag a selection box (or tap a ratio preset), preview, and save the crop — all Canvas API, all local.

Cropping sounds trivial until you look at what most free croppers ask for: an upload of your photo to somebody's server. This tool never does that - the image is read into the page, drawn on a canvas and cropped by your browser. Drag the dashed selection box freely, or snap it to a preset ratio such as 1:1 for avatars, 16:9 for thumbnails or 9:16 for stories. When you crop, the export is taken at the original source resolution of your selection, so quality matches the photo you started with.

A few practical habits make results better. Pick the ratio before dragging so the box keeps its shape while you frame the subject. Choose JPEG output for photographs - smaller files at 92 percent quality - and PNG when you need crisp graphics or transparency. The preview is scaled to fit the screen, but the download uses full-resolution pixels, so do not judge sharpness from the preview alone. Limits: one image at a time, no rotation or straightening here, and enormous images are bounded by the memory your browser is willing to give.
