FAQ
Can I crop to exact pixel dimensions?
Yes — the crop dimensions are displayed in real-time as you drag the handles. You can precisely select the exact area you need down to the pixel.
Which aspect ratio should I use for social media?
Use 1:1 (square) for Instagram posts and profile pictures. Use 16:9 for YouTube thumbnails, Twitter headers, and LinkedIn banners. Use 4:3 for Facebook shared images.
Does cropping reduce image quality?
If you export as PNG, there is zero quality loss — it is lossless. For JPEG, you can control the quality level with the slider. Set it to 95-100 for virtually no visible difference.
What is the maximum image size I can crop?
You can upload images up to 50MB and 8192 pixels in either dimension. Processing happens on your device, so performance depends on your hardware.
