What You Can Do

Visual Crop With Drag Handles

Drag the crop grid corners and edges directly on your image preview to select exactly the area you want to keep. See the crop dimensions update live as you drag. No guessing — what you see is what you get before you apply anything.

Exact Coordinate Cropping

Need a precise cut at specific pixel positions? Enter exact X, Y, width and height values in the coordinate inputs. Useful for cropping thumbnails to a consistent size, removing a specific border or cutting a precise region from a larger image.

Rotation at Any Angle

Rotate by exactly 90, 180 or 270 degrees with the quick buttons, or enter any custom angle for fine adjustments. Useful for straightening a slightly tilted horizon in a photo without having to open a full editing application. The canvas resizes automatically to fit the full rotated image without cropping corners.

Flip Horizontal and Vertical

Mirror your image in one click. Flip horizontal corrects mirror-image text in screenshots, reverses selfies to match how others see you, or creates symmetrical compositions. Flip vertical turns images upside down or corrects scanned documents that came in the wrong orientation.

Crop or Transform an Image in Seconds

STEP 1

Drop your image

Drag any supported image file into the workspace and the Transform tab opens by default

STEP 2

Apply your transforms

Drag the crop handles to select your area, use coordinate inputs for precision, rotate using the angle buttons or custom input, and flip as needed

STEP 3

Download

Preview the final result in the before and after viewer and download your transformed image

When You Actually Need to Crop

Profile pictures and avatars

Most platforms expect a square image. Crop your photo to a square before uploading rather than letting the platform auto-crop it in a way you cannot control.

Removing unwanted edges

Screenshots often have unnecessary UI elements, browser chrome or blank padding around the main content. A quick crop removes the noise and focuses the image on what matters.

Consistent thumbnail sizes

If you publish a blog or run an online store, keeping all thumbnails cropped to the same dimensions makes your layout look consistent and professional.

Straightening photos

A horizon that is two or three degrees off makes a landscape photo look amateurish. Use the custom rotation input to straighten it precisely without cropping more than necessary.

Cutting a specific region

Maps, screenshots, diagrams and infographics often contain one section you want to extract and use separately. Coordinate crop lets you cut exactly that region without eyeballing it.

Transform With a Command

Type transform instructions directly in the command bar:

rotate 90
rotate -90
rotate 180
rotate 15
flip horizontal
flip vertical
flip h
flip v
crop 0 0 800 600

Chain with other tools: crop 100 100 900 600 | resize 1200x800 | convert webp — crop a specific region, resize the result and convert the format all in one run.

Privacy Note

All cropping and transforms run in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to any server.

Common Questions

Can I crop an image to an exact pixel size?+

Yes. Use the coordinate inputs to enter precise X, Y, width and height values. For example entering X 0, Y 0, width 800, height 600 crops the image to exactly 800 by 600 pixels starting from the top left corner.

How do I straighten a slightly tilted photo?+

Use the custom rotation input and enter a small angle like 1.5 or 2 degrees. The canvas resizes to fit the full rotated image so no corners are cropped. You can then crop the white edges that appear around the rotated image if needed.

Does rotating an image reduce its quality?+

Rotating by exactly 90, 180 or 270 degrees is lossless — no quality reduction occurs. Rotating by non-standard angles like 15 or 45 degrees involves resampling which can introduce very slight softness, most noticeable on text or sharp lines.

Can I undo a crop if I selected the wrong area?+

Yes. Use the undo button or press Ctrl+Z to step back through your changes. You can also click Reset at any point to return to your original uploaded image completely.

What is the difference between flip horizontal and flip vertical?+

Flip horizontal mirrors the image left to right, as if reflecting it in a vertical mirror. Flip vertical mirrors it top to bottom, as if reflecting it in a horizontal mirror. Flip horizontal is the more commonly needed of the two.

Can I combine cropping with resizing or converting?+

Yes. Either use the tabs to apply operations in sequence, or use the command pipeline. For example crop 0 0 800 600 | resize 50% | convert webp crops first, then scales the cropped result down by 50 percent, then converts it to WebP.
