Frequently asked questions
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. Cropping is done locally in your browser using a canvas, so the image stays on your device and is never sent to a server.
How do I set the exact crop area?
Drag the blue box to reposition it and drag the corner handles to resize it. A label shows the current selection size in pixels so you can frame it precisely.
What format is the cropped image saved in?
The crop keeps your original image's format, and the download filename includes the new pixel dimensions so it's easy to identify.
Can I paste a screenshot instead of a file?
Yes. Copy any image to your clipboard and press Ctrl or Cmd+V on the tool to load it straight in for cropping.
