Frequently Asked Questions
Which aspect ratios can I choose from?
16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:2 and 21:9 are the built-in presets.
Can I position the crop area manually, or is it always centered?
The crop is always centered automatically on the image — there’s no manual repositioning option for this tool.
Will cropping to a ratio cut off parts of my photo?
Yes, by design — fitting a different aspect ratio means trimming whichever dimension is proportionally too large, taken evenly from both sides since the crop stays centered.
Does this work for both photos and screenshots?
Yes — it works on any standard image file the same way, regardless of source.
Can I request a custom ratio not in the preset list?
Not on this tool — use Crop Image instead and enter the exact pixel dimensions for any custom ratio.
