Crop out exactly the part you want
Drag a selection over the photo to choose what stays. Nudge the numbers for pixel-precise edges, then download just that region.

Drag a selection over the part you want to keep — nothing is uploaded.
Choosing the region yourself
Cropping is how you cut away what does not belong: a stranger at the edge of the frame, a messy background, a scanned photo with white borders, or a screenshot where only one panel matters. You decide the region, rather than a preset deciding it for you.
The selection is shown in the image's own pixel coordinates, so you can fine-tune the box by typing exact numbers instead of fighting with a mouse. Turn on the ratio lock if the result also has to be a square or a 16:9 frame.
Nothing is scaled: the pixels inside your selection are copied out at their original resolution, so a crop of a 24 MP photo is just as sharp as the source.

Frequently asked questions
How do I crop a photo online for free?
Drop the photo above, drag a box over the area you want to keep, and download. It is free, has no watermark, needs no account, and the file never leaves your browser.
Can I crop to exact pixel coordinates?
Yes. The X, Y, width and height of the selection are shown as editable numbers in the image's own pixel space, so you can type precise values instead of dragging.
Does cropping lower the image quality?
No. The selected region is copied at its original resolution with no scaling, so the cropped result is exactly as sharp as that part of the source image.
How is this different from the aspect ratio changer?
Here you choose the region by hand, anywhere in the frame. The aspect ratio changer automatically crops around the centre to reach a chosen shape such as 1:1 or 9:16.
