How to use Crop Image

  1. 01

    Pick your photo

    Select a file from your device. It loads directly into the browser tab — no upload step happens.

  2. 02

    Drag the crop rectangle

    Resize and reposition the rectangle over the preview, or type exact left, top, width and height values in pixels.

  3. 03

    The browser extracts the crop locally

    The selected pixels are cut out right there on your device, in the source format — nothing is sent anywhere.

  4. 04

    Download the cropped image

    Save the result straight to your device. Since nothing was ever uploaded, there is also nothing to clean up on any server.

Why choose our Crop Image

Your photo never leaves your device

Cropping runs entirely in your browser — there is no upload and no server copy, which makes this safe for IDs, documents and other sensitive images.

Completely free, unlimited use

Because the file never touches our servers, cropping is not counted against the anonymous operation limit or your conversion balance.

No account needed

Crop and download your image without ever signing in — there is no account gate on a purely local tool like this one.

Instant results

There is no upload or download wait — the crop happens the moment you release the rectangle, right in the preview.

Works on phone, tablet or desktop

Any modern browser can run the cropper — no installs, no plugins, just drag and download.

Settings guide

Crop rectangle (left, top, width, height)
Drag the rectangle over the preview, or type exact pixel values for the left/top offsets and the width and height. The cropped image keeps the source format. Everything runs inside your browser — the photo is never uploaded to a server.

About the formats

JPG

JPG (also written JPEG) is the most widely used lossy image format for photographs, standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group in 1992. Practically every camera, phone, and image application can create and open it.

Its strengths are small file sizes for photos and universal compatibility across devices, browsers, and software. The trade-offs: lossy compression introduces artifacts, there is no transparency support, and quality degrades a little more with every re-save. Use JPG for photographs; choose PNG for screenshots, logos, or anything that needs sharp edges or transparency.

PNG

PNG is a lossless raster image format created in the mid-1990s as a patent-free replacement for GIF. It is the standard choice for screenshots, logos, UI graphics, and any image that needs transparency.

PNG preserves every pixel exactly and supports a full 8-bit alpha channel, so text and sharp edges stay crisp. The downside is size: photographs saved as PNG are far larger than the same image as JPG or WebP. Support is universal in browsers and editors, making it a safe default for graphics — just avoid it for large photo collections.

WebP

WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that supports both lossy and lossless compression, along with transparency and animation. At comparable visual quality it usually produces noticeably smaller files than JPG or PNG.

Every current browser supports WebP, which makes it an excellent default for web delivery. Outside the browser the picture is mixed: older desktop software, some email clients, and legacy systems may fail to open it. If a recipient cannot view a WebP file, convert it to JPG for photos or to PNG when transparency must be preserved.

Troubleshooting

I cannot make the rectangle as large as I want
The crop rectangle is clamped to the image bounds: left + width cannot exceed the image width, and top + height cannot exceed the image height. Reduce the left/top offsets to make room for a larger rectangle, or accept that the crop cannot be bigger than the photo itself.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Cropping runs entirely locally in your browser — the photo never leaves your device and no copy is stored on our servers. That makes this tool safe for IDs, documents and other sensitive images.
The page gets slow with a very large photo
Because cropping happens on your device, speed depends on your browser and available memory — huge photos from modern cameras can be heavy to preview. Close other tabs, or crop a smaller copy of the image if your device struggles.

FAQ

Can I crop to exact pixel dimensions?
Yes. Provide the position and size of the area you want and we extract exactly that region from your image.
Is the conversion private?
Yes. Your files are processed securely and deleted after conversion. We never share your photos.
Is there a file size limit?
Free accounts can upload files up to 50 MB. Paid users can upload up to 200 MB.
Is my photo uploaded when I crop it?
No. Cropping runs entirely locally in your browser — the photo never leaves your device and no copy is stored on our servers, which makes this tool safe for IDs, documents and other sensitive images.
Why can't I make the crop rectangle bigger?
The rectangle is clamped to the image bounds: left + width cannot exceed the image width, and top + height cannot exceed the image height.
Does cropping change the file format?
No. The cropped image keeps the same format as your source file (JPG, PNG or WebP).
Is there a limit on how many photos I can crop?
No. Since cropping runs entirely in your browser, single-file use is free and unlimited, and it never counts against the anonymous server limit.
