Why crop images online?
Cropping removes the parts of a photo you do not need and reframes the subject — the classic fix for profile pictures, thumbnails, wallpapers and social posts. This free tool gives you a drag-and-resize box with preset ratios like 1:1, 4:3 and 16:9.
The crop is applied from your original full-resolution image, so the result keeps all of its sharpness. Use the ratio presets to guarantee a perfect shape, then download in JPG, PNG or WEBP.
Everything runs in your browser with no uploads. Try Passport Photo Maker or WhatsApp DP Resizer.
