Helpful guidance
Cropping removes unwanted edges and changes composition without stretching the remaining pixels. Drag the image to position the important area, pinch or use the zoom control, and choose a fixed ratio when a form or social platform specifies one. The crop rectangle is always clamped to the real image bounds.
A 1:1 crop is square, 3:4 and 4:3 suit many portraits and documents, and 16:9 is a wide screen shape. Passport requirements vary by country, so use the passport maker when physical measurements, DPI and file-size limits all matter. Rotation is applied to the exported pixels, not only to the preview.
Leave enough space around a person’s head and shoulders, keep document corners straight and avoid cutting important text. Cropping does not improve a low-resolution image; excessive zoom throws pixels away. The original remains untouched, and the exported canvas removes location and camera metadata.
Frequently asked questions
What does aspect ratio mean?
It is the relationship between width and height. A 1:1 ratio is square, while 3:4 is taller than it is wide.
Can I crop on a phone?
Yes. Drag with one finger and pinch with two fingers. All controls use mobile-sized touch targets.
Does rotate change the download?
Yes. Each 90-degree rotation is applied to the final canvas, including swapped width and height where appropriate.
Will cropping reduce quality?
Cropping keeps the selected pixels, but strong zoom leaves fewer pixels for the result. Avoid zooming farther than necessary.
