Square for IG. Tall for Stories. 2:3 for Pinterest. Eight presets, drag to reposition the crop, switch to letterbox when nothing in the frame can give. Exact pixel sizes, JPG or PNG, nothing leaves your device. For a real spread, grab a proper app.

where the right size earns its keep
for instagram
The two sizes that read cleanest in the IG grid: square (1080×1080) and tall portrait (1080×1350). Pick the preset, drag the photo to reposition the crop, hit download. The dimensions match exactly what IG's compressor expects, so nothing rescales server-side.
for stories
Stories and Reels live at 1080×1920. A landscape phone photo gets letterboxed into the tall canvas with paper-color bars top and bottom — so the photo stays whole, the frame fills the screen, and nothing critical hides behind the UI.
for pinterest
Pinterest favors 2:3 vertical pins (1000×1500). Wider pins get cropped in the home feed; taller pins get clipped. This preset hits the spec exactly. For mood-board pins where every inch of the photo matters, switch to letterbox with a paper background.
for x
X header banners are 1500×500 — a brutal aspect that crops most photos in half. Drag-to-reposition lets you nudge a portrait so the face sits in the visible band, not behind the avatar. Letterbox mode is the rescue if no crop works.
for youtube
Every YouTube creator needs a 1280×720 thumbnail. Drop your shoot, pick the YT thumb preset, drag your subject to one side so the title type has room. Cropped at the right aspect, ready for upload — no rescaling needed.
for prints
Most home printers expect 4×6 (1200×1800 portrait, 1800×1200 landscape). Square photos crop badly there. Letterbox mode with a paper background turns any square into a print-friendly rectangle without losing a millimeter of the photo.
in case you're wondering
No. The crop runs entirely on a canvas in your browser tab. Your photo never touches our servers — we don't run an image pipeline at all. Open DevTools → Network and watch: nothing leaves your device.
Crop fills the target frame completely — the photo gets scaled up until it covers the whole canvas, then trimmed to fit. Letterbox does the opposite: the whole photo stays visible, with paper-color (or transparent) bars on whichever side the aspect doesn't match.
Yes. Pick the Story preset and you get exactly 1080×1920 pixels — not approximate, not a recommendation. The downloaded file matches the preset to the pixel. Custom mode lets you specify any size from 50px to 8000px wide or tall.
Crop mode and Letterbox-with-color mode export JPG at 92% quality (smaller files, perfect for social). Letterbox-with-transparent-background exports PNG (preserves the alpha channel for layering elsewhere).
In Crop mode, click and drag the photo on the canvas. The crop window stays fixed; the photo slides underneath. We never let you drag past the edges, so you can't accidentally reveal a blank background.
If your source photo is smaller than the target preset (e.g., a 600×600 photo into a 1080×1080 frame), we'll upscale it to fit. Browser canvas upscaling is decent but not magic — for a sharper result, start with a larger source, or pick a smaller preset.
Most browsers struggle with canvases above 8192×8192 due to memory limits. Capping at 8000 keeps the export reliable across desktops. For larger output, use a desktop tool with no canvas ceiling.
