CropX - Crop images to any ratio or size, blur and pixelate

Crop and redact in seconds

CropX does the two things you most often need before sharing an image: cropping it to the right shape or size, and covering what others shouldn’t see. Open it, make the change, copy the result. Everything happens in your browser.

How it works

  1. 01

    Open an image

    Paste a screenshot, drop a file anywhere on the page, or choose one. It opens ready to crop.

  2. 02

    Crop

    Pick a ratio or a common size, then drag the frame or its handles. Drag outside the frame to draw a new one.

  3. 03

    Cover private details

    Switch to Redact and drag over names, faces or numbers to pixelate or blur them.

  4. 04

    Copy or download

    Copy the result to paste into a chat or document, or download it as PNG, JPEG or WebP.

Getting the result

FAQ

Is my image uploaded?

No. The image is opened, edited and encoded in your browser and never leaves your device.

Can redaction be undone by someone else?

No. Covered areas are reduced to a few large blocks of color before the image is saved, so the original detail isn’t in the file. Choose Strong for text that must not be readable.

How do I get an exact size like 1200×630?

Pick it under Common sizes. The frame locks to that shape, and the export is scaled to exactly that size, whatever area you select.

Why no filters, text or drawing tools?

On purpose. Screenshot tools already annotate well, and phone galleries adjust colors. CropX keeps to cropping and redaction, so those stay one step away.
