Crop & Rotate Image
Crop photos to a ratio such as 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 or to an exact size, rotate them by 90°, flip them and straighten a tilted horizon. Your images are never uploaded.
Your files never leave this device. Everything is processed inside your browser and nothing is uploaded to a server.
When to use Crop & Rotate Image
Fit the ratio of social media and profiles
Crop to the ratio of where you post, such as Instagram portrait posts (4:5), profile pictures (1:1) or YouTube thumbnails (16:9). Once you pick a ratio, just move the box to the part you want to keep.
Fix photos that appear sideways
If a phone photo looks sideways only on some sites or programs, they are ignoring the orientation tag inside the photo. Saving it again the way it looks makes it appear upright everywhere. You can also rotate it by 90° or flip it like a mirror.
Straighten a tilted horizon or document
If the horizon in a sea or building photo is tilted, or you shot a document at an angle, turn it in 0.1° steps to level it. Use the grid lines as a guide and trim the edges you do not need at the same time.
How to use the Crop & Rotate Image tool
- Click "Choose an image file" or drag a photo onto the page.
- If needed, turn it with "Rotate left 90°" or "Rotate right 90°", flip it, and level it with the Straighten slider.
- Pick an aspect ratio and drag the bright box to the part you want to keep. Drag the dots on the corners to resize it, or type the width and height.
- Choose a format and click "Download edited image".
Frequently asked questions
Why are the edges trimmed when I straighten?
Turning a photo leaves empty corners in the rectangular frame. The photo is enlarged by just enough to fill the frame, so the edges are trimmed slightly. The more you turn, the more is trimmed, so turn only as much as you need.
Does cropping reduce quality?
Cropping keeps the pixels of the part you keep. The image is saved again, though, so JPG and WebP may lose a tiny bit of quality (saved at 92% quality). Choose PNG if there must be no loss. Straightening recalculates the pixels, so the image becomes very slightly softer.
Can I make an exact size such as 1080×1350?
This tool picks the area to keep from the original, so the result has as many pixels as that area. Crop to 4:5, then change the size to 1080×1350 with the Resize Image tool to get the exact size.
Is the photo information (EXIF) kept?
No. The photo is redrawn, so information such as location, date and device is removed, and it is saved the way it looks without an orientation tag. To keep the photo information and remove only the location, use the Remove Photo Location tool.
Can I crop several photos at once?
Each photo needs its own area, so they are cropped one at a time. After downloading, click "Other image" to open the next one. To shrink many photos by the same ratio, the Resize Image tool is easier.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Opening, rotating, cropping and saving all happen in this browser, so you can safely use personal photos.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Files are processed only inside your browser and are never sent to any server. Only the code and character mapping data needed for processing are downloaded from this site; your files themselves never leave your device. You can check this yourself in the Network tab of your browser's developer tools.
Are my files safe even with ads on the page?
Yes. Ads only run outside the tool area. The tool area, where you choose and process files, is an isolated space your browser keeps separate, so other scripts on the page, including ads, cannot read your file content or file names. The tool area is blocked from connecting anywhere other than this site. When you drag a file onto the page, the tool area expands to fill the screen so the isolated space receives the file.
