About Image Cropper
Crop an image online with this free photo cropper. Draw a freeform box or lock 1:1, 4:5, 16:9, or 9:16, then drag the frame and pull the handles until the keep area is right. Use it when a post needs a square, a portrait 4:5 Instagram feed crop, a 16:9 thumbnail, or a 9:16 story, without stretching the picture. Download the cropped file and leave the original on disk.
Most resize-for-Instagram searches want a crop, not a scale. Square 1:1 fits a feed grid. 4:5 fills more of a phone screen. 16:9 matches landscape video stills. 9:16 matches stories and Reels. Freeform is there for a product cut or a passport-style trim that is not a named ratio.
Load a PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, or BMP, set the ratio, crop, and download. For exact Instagram story, Facebook cover, LinkedIn banner, or Pinterest pin pixels, use Social Size Crop. The image resizer is the right tool when you need to scale the whole photo.
Cropping stays in your browser, so the photo is never uploaded. Use this free online image cropper whenever you need a private 1:1, 4:5, 16:9, or 9:16 cut.
