Frequently Asked Questions
Does cropping reduce image quality?
No, cropping itself doesn't reduce quality. Our tool maintains the original pixel quality within the cropped area. However, if you crop too much and then enlarge, you may see pixelation.
What's the maximum image size I can upload?
Free: 2 files / 60MB total. Pro: 40 files / 120MB total. For best results, use optimized source images for fast performance and quality.
Can I crop multiple images at once?
Currently, our tool processes one image at a time. However, you can quickly crop multiple images by using the "New Crop" button after each export.
Are my images stored on your servers?
No, all image processing happens in your browser. We never upload or store your images on our servers, ensuring complete privacy.
