Keep the picture you want
Keep editing the original
The editor keeps the entire original and applies the framing through canvas size and placement. MP4 download re-encodes the chosen area with even pixel dimensions.
When to crop a video
Remove black bars and stray edges
Cut away a screen recording’s taskbar, black bars above and below, or anything at the edge you would rather not show. Only the area you keep fills the result.
Square or vertical framing
When you need a 1:1 Instagram feed video or a vertical one, size the area close to that ratio. Position and size can be set precisely in pixels or with the arrow keys. For vertical shorts the 9:16 shorts tool is easier.
Does cropping lower quality?
The resolution drops by the part you cut away, but the picture you keep stays as sharp. Saving re-encodes the video and rounds width and height to even pixels. A small area shown much larger can look soft.
Keep the original while you edit
In the editor the whole original goes in and your framing is applied as canvas and placement, so you can widen or move it later without losing what was cut.
FAQ
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything happens in this browser. The conversion engine (about 30 MB) downloads once and is reused afterwards.
Can it handle large files?
It works in browser memory, so re-encoding files of several GB or long videos can be slow or fail. Use the desktop app for large videos.
Is it free?
Yes. No limits and no watermark.
