Frequently Asked Questions
Does cropping reduce image quality?
The cropped area maintains the original image quality. However, if you crop a small area and then enlarge it, quality will be lower since you're working with fewer pixels.
What file formats are supported?
You can crop JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and other common image formats. Output can be saved as PNG, JPEG, or WebP.
Is there a file size limit?
Since processing happens in your browser, there's no server-imposed limit. Very large images (over 20MP) may be slower to process depending on your device.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. All processing happens locally in your browser using HTML5 Canvas. Your images never leave your device.
What's the difference between PNG and JPEG?
PNG supports transparency and is lossless (no quality loss), but files are larger. JPEG is smaller but uses lossy compression. Use PNG for graphics with transparency, JPEG for photos.
