How to crop an image into a circle

Drop an image onto the box above (or click to choose a file). It's cropped to a centred circle with a transparent background and a Download PNG button appears. Nothing is uploaded — it all happens in your browser.

Making a round avatar

For the best result, start with a roughly square image where your subject is centred (use the crop tool first if needed). Drop it here and download the circular PNG — it'll drop straight into any profile that expects a round avatar.

Questions

Is this circle crop tool free?
Yes — completely free, with no account, no watermark, and no file-size limit. The crop runs in your browser using the Canvas API.
Does the result have a transparent background?
Yes. Everything outside the circle is fully transparent, and we export a lossless PNG (which supports transparency). That's why the round image sits cleanly on any colour background.
Do my images get uploaded?
No. The whole crop happens on your device, so your image never leaves your browser — it's instant and private.
How is the circle positioned?
We take the largest centred square of your image and inscribe the circle in it, so the centre of your photo stays in the middle of the circle. Crop or resize first if you need a different part centred.
