Crop an image
Choose a part of a picture by moving a frame or entering numbers of pixels, and save it as a new picture. The part keeps the original pixels as they are. Your picture is processed only on this device.

How to use

Move the frame or enter numbers of pixels to set the area. You can also choose an aspect ratio.
Press "Crop". Check the preview, then press "Save" to save the new picture.
Questions
Are my pictures sent anywhere?
No. Reading your pictures and making the new ones both happen on your device. Nothing is sent out after you choose a picture.
Does the quality drop?
The area keeps the original pixels as they are (it is not made smaller or larger). JPEG and WebP pictures are made again at a high quality (92%), and PNG adds no lossy compression. Only an area too large for the device, or longer than 16,384 pixels on a side, is made smaller, and the tool says so.
What happens when I choose a ratio?
The frame keeps that ratio (for example 16:9) as it moves, and the new picture has exactly that ratio. "Fit the whole picture" makes the frame as large as it can be with that ratio.
Can I use a keyboard?
Yes. Select the frame, move it with the arrow keys, and change its size with Shift and the arrow keys. You can also enter the numbers of pixels.
Does the location or other hidden information stay?
No. The new pictures have no location, date or device information. They have no orientation information either: the picture itself is saved upright.
What is the saved file called?
It gets a name with the size of the area, such as "cropped-800x600.jpg", because the original file name often includes the date the photo was taken.
Can I use it on a phone?
Yes. You can move the frame with your finger. Phone browsers may not be able to crop very large areas (such as a whole photo from a recent phone) at their full size. Then the tool makes the picture as large as that device can handle, and shows the old and the new size. Inside apps such as LINE, saving may not work. If so, open the page again in Safari or Chrome.
Limits
- Each time, one area of one picture can be cropped.
- Moving pictures (GIF, moving WebP or PNG) become a still picture of their first frame.
- Photos with a wide range of colors (such as photos from recent phones) are drawn again in the usual range (sRGB), so very bright colors can become a little softer.
- One file can be up to 50 MB, and a picture up to 50 megapixels. HEIC (the photo format of iPhones) works only in browsers that can open it (mainly Safari).
- We cannot protect against things in your own environment, such as browser extensions.
