Does my file get uploaded?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser, on your machine — no server touches this job. (Pro tools, when they arrive, will upload securely, and only when you ask.)

Is Crop an Image free to use?

Yes — tools on the open shelf are free to use.

What files does it accept?

It works with JPG, PNG, GIF, WEBP and BMP images.

Are the ratio presets exact?

Yes. A 1:1 crop comes out with matching width and height to the pixel, not close enough — a test crops a real file and checks the saved width equals its height before every release, because a square that is one pixel off is not a square.

Does it keep the camera information in my photo?

No. The result is written fresh, so the date, the camera model and any GPS location your phone recorded are left behind. The rotate tool reads the orientation tag to do its job correctly, and still discards it on the way out.

Crop an Image

Press the blue button. Your image downloads immediately, with the camera metadata stripped out.
