Crop Image

What is Image Crop?

Image Crop lets you select a rectangular region of an image and discard the rest. Use it to remove unwanted edges, focus on a subject, or square a photo for social media.

How to use Image Crop

1. Drop an image.
2. Drag the selection handles to set the crop region (or pick a fixed ratio: 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, etc.).
3. Click "Crop".
4. Download the cropped image.

Why use AinnoBox for this

• Fixed-ratio presets (1:1, 4:3, 16:9 and more) hit the shapes social platforms and video players actually require, without arithmetic.
• Cropping only discards pixels — the region you keep is untouched, so a crop never softens or re-compresses the part of the picture you care about.
• The live selection overlay shows exactly what survives, so there is no guess-and-check cycle of exporting and re-opening.
• Cropping is often how a bystander, a street sign or a screen full of internal data gets removed — doing it locally means the uncropped frame is never transmitted.
• Free and unlimited — crop a hundred images without an account, a queue or a watermark.

Image Crop — frequently asked questions

Is the cropped-out area really gone?

Yes. The output contains only the selected region — the discarded pixels are not stored in a hidden layer, unlike a non-destructive crop in a photo editor that keeps the full frame in the project file.

Does cropping reduce image quality?

The pixels you keep are copied as they are. Any quality change comes only from the format you save to, so cropping a JPEG and saving as JPEG involves one re-encode; there is no scaling or resampling.

Which ratio should I use for social media?

1:1 for profile pictures and classic feed posts, 4:5 for a taller portrait post, 16:9 for video thumbnails and link previews, and 9:16 for full-screen vertical stories.
