Crop for Social MediaFrequently Asked Questions
How do I crop an image?
Simply upload your image, drag your mouse or touch screen across the image to draw a selection box, and then adjust the edges to your liking.
Does cropping reduce quality?
No. Cropping only discards pixels outside your selection area; the section you choose to keep maintains its full original quality.
Can I crop to a fixed aspect ratio like 1:1 or 16:9?
Yes. Pick one of the presets next to the image — 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 3:4, 2:3, 4:5 or 9:16 — and the selection box locks to that shape. Choose Free if you prefer to crop without any constraint.
Can I crop an image for Instagram, X or Reddit?
Yes, use the social media cropper. It has ready-made formats for Instagram, X (Twitter), Reddit, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Discord, Pinterest and Twitch. Selecting one locks the crop to that platform’s shape and exports at its exact pixel dimensions, such as 1080 x 1350 for an Instagram portrait post.
Can I set my own default crop ratio?
Yes. Enter any custom width and height values (for example 5 : 4) and click Apply. Your last used ratio is remembered in your browser and applied automatically the next time you upload an image.
Can I adjust the crop selection?
Yes, you can click and drag the borders or corners of the selection box to fine-tune your framing before clicking download.
Are my images private?
Yes. All cropping happens locally in your web browser. Your images are never uploaded to any server.
