Frequently asked questions

What image formats can I crop?

You can crop common image formats including JPG and PNG. If you upload a PNG, the cropped result is saved as a PNG (preserving transparency); other images are exported as high-quality JPG.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. This image cropper works 100% in your browser. Your photos are processed locally on your device and are never uploaded, so your files stay completely private.

Can I crop to a specific aspect ratio?

Yes. You can crop freely to any region, or lock the crop box to a fixed 1:1, 4:3, or 16:9 aspect ratio for square images, photos, and widescreen banners.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no fixed file-size limit. Since cropping runs in your browser, very large images depend on your device's memory, but typical photos of several MB crop instantly.

Can I rotate the image before cropping?

Yes. You can rotate the image in 90° steps to straighten or reorient it, and the crop area updates so you can frame exactly the part you want.

Does it work on mobile and all browsers?

Yes. The cropper runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet, or phone — including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge — with no app or sign-up required.
