How it works

How to crop an image in four steps

  1. 01

    Choose one image

    Drop a JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF file on the tool, or press Choose image. The preview appears with the whole image selected.

  2. 02

    Select the part to keep

    Drag across the preview, pick Square, 4:3, 3:4, or 16:9 for the largest centered crop that fits, or type X, Y, Width, and Height in pixels.

  3. 03

    Check the output size

    The line under the controls shows the exact pixel size of the result. Keep the source format or switch to JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF.

  4. 04

    Crop and download

    Press Crop image, compare the verified preview, then choose Download image. Nothing downloads until you press it.

The controls

What each control does

01

Visible source coordinates

X and Y start at the upper-left corner. Width and height show the exact exported pixel dimensions. Changing a number switches the ratio to Free crop and keeps the size you entered, so you can nudge a preset crop by editing X and Y.

02

Common ratios

Square, portrait, landscape, and widescreen presets choose the largest centered crop that fits. Dragging on the preview starts a new free crop.

03

Focused crop only

This tool cuts one rectangle. Rotate, flip, colour adjustments, and redaction belong in the Image Editor instead.

Result and limits

What you get, and what the tool will refuse

The cropped pixels are copied, not scaled

The result is exactly Width × Height pixels, cut from the coordinates shown in the controls. JPEG photos that carry a camera orientation tag are turned upright before you crop, so X and Y match what you see in the preview. Keeping the source format is the default.

Quality only applies to compressed formats

JPG, WebP, and AVIF results are recompressed at the quality you set, 82% by default. PNG results have no quality setting. Choosing JPG fills any transparent area with white, because JPG cannot store transparency.

Size limits depend on your device

Phones, narrow windows, and devices that do not report at least 8 GB of memory and 4 processor cores accept images up to 25 MB and 24 megapixels, with no side longer than 8,192 px. Larger desktops accept up to 50 MB, 48 megapixels, and 16,384 px per side.

Your image stays in this tab

The file is read, cropped, and checked by your browser. BeanNest does not upload it. GIF, HEIC, and SVG files are rejected with a message instead of being converted.

Common questions

Cropping questions, answered

How do I crop an image to an exact size in pixels?

Choose the image, then type the Width and Height you want and the X and Y where the crop should start, counted from the upper-left corner. An 800 × 600 crop from the top-left corner is X 0, Y 0, Width 800, Height 600. Numbers are limited to the image, so the tool never enlarges a picture; use Resize Image to change its overall size.

How do I crop to a square or 16:9?

Open the Aspect ratio list and pick Square, 4:3, 3:4, or 16:9. The tool selects the largest centered crop with that ratio. To move it, change X and Y; the size stays and the list switches to Free crop.

Does cropping lower the quality of the picture?

The selected pixels are copied one for one. Quality can only drop when the result is saved as JPG, WebP, or AVIF, which recompress the image at the quality you choose. Keep the source format or pick PNG when you want no extra compression.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. Your browser reads, crops, and verifies the image on your device, and the download link points to a file made in this tab. Reload the page or press Start over and the result is gone.

Why was my image rejected?

The tool accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, and AVIF files within the size limits above. GIF, HEIC, and SVG files are not accepted, and a file whose contents do not match its declared type is refused. Re-export the picture as JPG or PNG, then try again.

Does cropping remove location data from a photo?

Do not rely on it. This tool crops pixels and does not promise to strip camera or GPS metadata. If privacy matters, run the cropped file through Remove Image Metadata, which rewrites the file and verifies the result.
