Crop an Image to a Perfect Square
Start with a centered 1:1 frame, move it over the area you want, and review the result before downloading.
A square crop without stretched pixels
The 1:1 preset removes material outside a square frame. It does not stretch the remaining pixels or enlarge the image to a fixed size.
The first frame is centered. Drag or resize it to keep faces, products, text, or another important area inside the square.

Frequently asked questions
Does this make a circular profile picture?+
No. It creates a square image. Use a separate circular-mask tool when you need transparent round output.
Will the image become 1080 × 1080 pixels?+
Not automatically. Cropping changes the visible area; it does not resize every source to fixed pixel dimensions.
