Frequently asked questions

How do I crop a photo to a square?

Select the 1:1 preset, move the box over the part you want and download.

Does cropping lower the quality?

No. Only the area outside the selection is removed. Save as PNG to keep it pixel-perfect.

Can I crop to an exact pixel size?

Crop to the right aspect ratio, then resize to the exact dimensions with the Image Resizer.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images never leave your device, and nothing is stored.
