Is cropping an image here really private?
Yes. The crop runs on your device using the browser's own image codecs — the file is never sent over the network.
Can I choose exactly which part of the image to keep?
Yes. Drag the selection box anywhere on the image, pull any of its eight handles to resize it, or drag on a blank part of the image to draw a new area from scratch. If you need an exact result, type the width, height and position straight into the pixel fields instead — they're measured against the full-size image, not the preview, so what you type is what you get.
Can I lock the crop to a fixed ratio?
Yes. Pick Square, Portrait, Widescreen or Original and the selection reshapes immediately, then stays locked to that ratio while you drag it or type into the pixel fields. Free is the default, so nothing constrains you unless you ask for it.
What happens if I drop several images at once?
You crop one of them on screen and the same selection is applied to every image in proportion to its own size — so a set of photos with different dimensions all keep the same framing rather than the same pixel box. Use the arrows under the preview to check the selection against each image before you crop. If your images need genuinely different crops, run them one at a time.
Does cropping reduce the quality of the rest of the image?
The pixels you keep aren't resampled or scaled, so they're unchanged. JPEG and WebP are lossy formats, so saving the result re-encodes it once at high quality; PNG is lossless and comes out pixel-identical inside the crop.
Is there a file size limit?
100 MB per file, and 30 files per batch, limited by your device's memory rather than a paid tier.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up, no email, and no usage cap. Nothing about your files is logged.
