How to use it

A focused workflow, from source to download

When it helps

Practical uses

Crop distracting edges, reframe a portrait, straighten a horizon, or prepare a consistent aspect ratio without uploading the original.

Privacy in this tool

The preview uses a temporary object URL and the final crop is rendered from the original image locally.

Formats and boundaries

What to expect

Supported formats

JPEG, PNG, WebP, and AVIF export where supported.

Important limitations

Very large rotations can expose background corners. Animated inputs become still images. The preview is optimized for responsiveness, while the download uses the original pixels.

Tool-specific answers

Image Cropper questions

Does the preview reduce output quality?

No. The preview is only a guide. PixelPrivate applies the crop to the original decoded image.

Can I make small adjustments with the keyboard?

Yes. Position, zoom, and rotation controls are standard keyboard-operable inputs with visible values.

Which aspect ratio should I use?

Choose based on the layout where the image will appear. Freeform preserves the current image ratio unless you change it.
