Frequently asked questions

How do I crop a photo into a square?
Select your file, slide the position control to frame your subject in the 1:1 window, then export.
What does the position slider do?
It slides the square window along the image's longer side so you can choose which part of the photo to keep.
Does square cropping lose quality?
The kept region stays at full resolution — pixels are cut away, never stretched — so sharpness is preserved.
What file formats can I export?
You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
