Online Image Cropper
Drag the corner and edge handles to size your crop freely, just like the iPhone Photos app, or drag inside the box to move it. Lock a ratio such as 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9 when you need a fixed shape, and rotate or flip before you export. It works on touchscreens, and the cropped result is generated right in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions
Does crop work on my phone?
Yes. The crop handles and zoom are designed for touch, so you can crop comfortably on mobile.
Can I crop to a specific ratio?
Use a preset like 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 3:2 or portrait, or crop freely.
Does cropping reduce the file size?
Usually yes, because you keep fewer pixels — though the exact size depends on the output format and quality.
