Crop an image to a specific aspect ratio — square, 16:9, 4:5, and more — in your browser. Cropping to a ratio is the fast way to make a picture fit where it is going without measuring pixels, so it fills the frame instead of being letterboxed or auto-cropped.
Crop to the right aspect ratio
Cropping to a ratio — 1:1 square, 16:9, 4:5, 9:16 and more — is the fast way to make a picture fit where it is going without measuring pixels. Position the crop over the part you want to keep, and the image fills the frame instead of being letterboxed or auto-cropped by the platform later.
Cropping keeps full quality
Cropping only removes area from the edges; the pixels you keep are completely untouched, so there is no quality loss. It all happens in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
