Crop an image
Cut a photo down to the part you want, freely or to a fixed shape such as square or 35x45 mm. Free, no sign-up, and your image never leaves your device.
Drag a box over the part to keep. Drag a corner to resize it, or inside it to move it.
How to use it

Shapes for social media and forms
Square (1:1) suits profile pictures and Instagram posts, 4:5 suits portrait Instagram posts, and 16:9 suits YouTube thumbnails and wide screens. 2x2 inch and 35x45 mm are the two most common passport photo shapes.
Cropping a passport or visa photo
The right shape isn't enough: each document also sets how big your head must be and where your eyes sit. Our photo tool for your document crops to all of those rules at once, with a free preview.
FAQ
- Does cropping reduce quality?
- No. Cropping keeps the original pixels of the area you keep; the image just gets smaller in pixel size.
- How do I crop to an exact pixel size, like 600 x 600?
- Crop to the shape here (square for 600 x 600), then use the resize to KB tool and set the maximum width/height in pixels.
- Is my photo uploaded?
- No. The editing happens in your browser, so the photo never leaves your device and nothing is stored.
- Which files can I use?
- JPG, PNG, WebP and any other image your browser can open. You get a JPG back, or a PNG if you started with a PNG, so transparency is kept.

Form asks for a white background and yours isn't? Our sister app changebg.app makes it white. Check the form's rules first: passport and visa photos must not have an edited background.
