Crop an image to a square: how it works

Profile pictures and Instagram posts look best as squares. The crop box below is already square: move it over the part you want, resize it from a corner, and download.

What size should a WhatsApp DP be?

640 × 640 pixels is plenty. Type 640 as the final width before downloading.

Will my face be cut off in the round DP?

Keep your face in the middle of the square; apps show a circle inside it.

Crop a photo online

Cut a photo to exactly the part you want: a square DP for WhatsApp or Instagram, a 16:9 YouTube thumbnail, a 9:16 story, a CNIC or card shape, or any free shape. Drag the box to move it, drag the corners to resize, rotate or flip if the photo is sideways, then download it as JPG, PNG or WebP at full quality. The photo is cropped on your device and never uploaded.

How to crop an image

  1. Choose the photo.
  2. Pick a shape (or Free), then drag and resize the box over the part you want.
  3. Optionally type a final width, then press Download cropped image.

Questions

Does cropping reduce quality?

No. The cropped part keeps the original pixels. Only typing a larger final width than the crop can make it look soft.

How do I crop a passport photo with a white background and print sheet?

Use the Passport Size Photo Maker; it makes exact 35 × 45 mm photos and a 4 × 6 print sheet.

Can I crop many photos at once?

This tool crops one photo at a time so you can choose the right part of each. To make many photos the same size automatically, use the Image Resizer.
