Download the cropped image. It keeps as much of the original photo's resolution as possible.
1:1 is the classic square of profile pictures and product catalogs. 4:5 is the portrait format that takes up the most space in the Instagram feed. 9:16 is the full phone screen: Stories, Reels, TikTok and Shorts. 16:9 is the format for video and YouTube thumbnails, and 3:2 is the one used by cameras and 4×6 in (10×15 cm) prints.
Cropping removes part of the image to change its shape; resizing changes the number of pixels without removing anything. If you need a specific size in pixels after cropping, run the result through the resize tool, or use the social media sizes tool, which does both at once.
Upload the photo, choose the 1:1 ratio and drag the image to decide which part stays inside the square. Then download the crop.

Yes. You can move the photo with one finger and zoom with the zoom control or by pinching with two fingers.
