How to Crop Image Online
Crop Image trims a PNG, JPG or WEBP picture to any area you draw, or to a fixed ratio such as square, 16:9, or a passport shape. Fixed ratios matter because most sites crop for you if you do not, and they will not choose the same part of the photo you would. The cut-away part is truly removed from the file, and a batch of pictures can be cropped in one go.
Trims a picture to any area or a fixed aspect ratio. Fixed ratios matter because most destinations crop for you if you do not — a 4:3 photo uploaded as a 16:9 banner will be cut by the platform, and it will not choose the same part of the image you would have.

Tips and Good to Know
-
Cropping does not resize. A 1:1 crop of a big photo is still big; run Resize Image to 200×200 or another size after cropping for a profile picture.
-
For a round profile picture with a transparent outside, use Circle Crop Image; this page makes rectangles.
-
A crop cannot be undone once downloaded. Keep the original if you might need a different framing later.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about this tool.
Is the cropped-away part really removed?
Yes. The result is a new, smaller image containing only what you kept — the discarded edges are not stored anywhere inside it. This matters if you are cropping someone out of a photograph before sharing it.
How do I crop to an exact size for a profile picture?
Set a fixed ratio — 1:1 for a square avatar — and the selection keeps that shape as you drag it. Then set the output dimensions to the exact pixel size the site asks for.
Does Crop Image reduce my photo’s quality?
Converting and cropping keep quality close to the original. Compressing trades a little detail for a much smaller file, and a lighter setting keeps more of it. Compare the preview with your original before saving.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. Pictures are opened and changed inside your browser, and the result is saved to your device. Family photos, ID scans and signatures are never sent anywhere.
Will my photo be accepted by the exam form?
The exam photo tools follow the size, dimensions and file weight given in the official notice. Always read the latest notice too, because boards sometimes change their rules between years.
Can I edit pictures with Crop Image straight from my gallery?
Yes. Pick a photo from your gallery or take one with the camera, then save the result back to your phone. Everything works in the browser, so there is no app to install.
Is Crop Image free with no watermark?
Yes. Use it for as many pictures as you need without an account, and each image comes back without any logo or mark from the site.
