Crop, rotate and flip images online

Drag a bright selection on the image to keep what matters and drop the rest; rotate 90° or flip horizontally/vertically when needed. Ideal for square avatars, straightening sideways phone shots, or fixing mirrored selfies. The crop box and rotation update the live preview below — download PNG when it looks right.

Upload a photo, drag the bright crop box to keep what you need, then rotate or flip if needed. The preview and download update automatically.

Rotation: 0° · Preview below follows your selection

Cropping is about composition: keep the subject, lose distracting edges. Rotation fixes orientation when the phone was sideways. Flip helps mirrored selfies or scans that came out reversed.

You work on the image with a draggable bright region (kept) and dimmed area (removed), then apply rotation/flip. Frame the subject first; if the photo is sideways, rotate after the crop feels right.

This is not a full photo editor with layers — it is fast prep before resize, compress, or favicon generation.

Crop & rotate FAQ

How do I crop?
After upload, drag the bright box to move it; drag corners or edges to resize. The dim area is removed in the result.
Do I type X, Y, width, height?
No — drag on the image. Numbers below are for reference only.
Crop first or rotate first?
The pipeline applies your crop region on the original, then rotation/flip. Usually frame the subject, then rotate if needed.
What format downloads?
PNG for clean edges; run through compress and pick JPEG/WebP if you need a smaller file.
