About Image Cropper
Drag the box over the part you want to keep, or lock it to an aspect ratio. The exact output size in pixels is shown as you adjust it.
Cropping cuts pixels away without scaling, so the part you keep stays at its original resolution.
Aspect ratios and where they are used
| Ratio | Typical use |
|---|---|
| 1:1 | Profile pictures, square feed posts, product thumbnails |
| 4:3 | Classic photos, slides, many tablet screens |
| 3:2 | Camera photos and standard 6 × 4 in prints |
| 16:9 | Video thumbnails, widescreen slides, desktop wallpapers |
| 9:16 | Stories, reels and other vertical video covers |
Crop to an exact pixel size
- Choose the aspect ratio of the size you need, for example 1:1 for 400 × 400.
- Drag the box over the part to keep and crop.
- Open the result in the image resizer and set the exact dimensions. Because the ratio already matches, nothing else gets cut off.
Cropping and quality
Cropping removes pixels around the selection without scaling what remains, so the kept area has the same sharpness as the original. The panel shows the exact output size before you crop.
