Crop image online free to trim borders, fix composition, or match aspect ratios. Drag a crop box, preview the result, and download—processing runs locally for standard browser-based cropping.

How it works
Upload a JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF, then set the crop area with the on-image handles or pixel inputs. Optional aspect-ratio presets keep the selection proportional. Cropping runs in your browser with the Canvas API—files are not uploaded to a server. GIF output is saved as PNG.
Limitations
Results are based on the inputs you provide and may not cover every edge case. This tool is for general use and is not professional advice.
Privacy and file handling
