Crop images to common social media sizes

Crop a photo to a common social media shape: square, portrait, story, landscape or cover. Sizes are named generically, since platforms change their recommendations.

How to use it

  1. Add an image. HEIC works too.
  2. Pick a preset: square 1080x1080, portrait 1080x1350, story 1080x1920, landscape 1200x628 or cover 1500x500.
  3. Drag the crop to frame the subject.
  4. Export and upload.

What it keeps

  • The part of the image inside the crop frame.

What it removes or changes

  • The rest is cropped away, and the image is resized to the preset pixel size.
  • Output is re-encoded.

Limits

  • Presets are common sizes and are not tied to any platform. Platforms change sizes, so check the current guidance.
  • Cropping a small image up to a large preset adds no detail.
  • It does not add text, stickers or safe-zone overlays.

Compatibility

Output is JPG, PNG or WebP, which social sites commonly accept. Sites recompress uploads, so starting at the right size and ratio gives the best result.

Privacy

Cropping runs in your browser. The image is not uploaded until you upload it yourself elsewhere.

Crop to ratio versus resize only

Resizing changes pixel count but keeps the shape, so a platform may crop it for you in an unwanted way. Cropping to the target ratio yourself gives you control over what stays in frame. Do the crop here, and let the platform only do light recompression.

Troubleshooting

The platform crops my image again.

It may use a different ratio. Pick the preset that matches and keep important content central.

The image looks soft.

The source was smaller than the preset. Use a larger original.

My cover image loses the subject.

Cover shapes are very wide. Frame carefully.
