How to Crop Image to Circle
Circle cropping is the most requested feature for modern profile pictures across social media platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp.
To crop your image into a circle, upload your photo and simply click the "Circle Crop" button under the options panel. The tool will automatically lock a 1:1 aspect ratio and apply a circular mask. What you see in the preview is exactly what you get when you download!
How to Crop Image Without Losing Quality
A common misconception is that cropping lowers the quality. Cropping does not reduce quality—it simply trims away the unwanted outer edges of the file. However, resizing (stretching a small cropped area to fit a larger display) can cause pixelation.
To ensure your cropped picture retains maximum fidelity, save it in its original format (like PNG for lossless quality, or JPG manually set to 100% quality using our slider).
Crop Image for Instagram
Social media platforms have strict dimension preferences. If you upload an image with the wrong ratio, they will forcefully crop it for you, often ruining your framing.
- Feed (Portrait): Select the 4:5 preset. This takes up maximum screen space on mobile and is ideal. Ideal dimensions: 1080 x 1350 px.
- Square: Select the 1:1 preset. Best for grid consistency. Ideal dimensions: 1080 x 1080 px.
- Stories: Select the 16:9 preset (vertical). Ideal dimensions: 1080 x 1920 px.
