Image Resizer vs Image Cropper — What's the Difference?
The short answer: Both change an image's dimensions, but they do it differently. Image Resizer scales the whole picture up or down to target pixel dimensions, optionally locked to the aspect ratio, one file or batches of 12. Image Cropper keeps the resolution and cuts away everything outside a region you define — freehand or fixed ratio. Scale everything versus keep a piece.
Comparison of Image Resizer and Image Cropper
| Image Resizer | Image Cropper | |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Resize images to exact pixel dimensions with an aspect-ratio lock, one file at a time or in batches of up to 12 downloaded as a zip. | Crop PNG, JPEG, or WebP images to exact pixel coordinates at free or fixed aspect ratios, and export the region as PNG, JPEG, or WebP. |
| Input | PNG, JPEG, or WebP images, one at a time or up to 12 in a batch | A PNG, JPEG, or WebP image plus the crop region at exact pixel coordinates |
| Output | Same-format images at 1–8,192 px dimensions, downloaded singly or as a zip | The crop region exported as PNG, JPEG, or WebP at free or fixed aspect ratios |
| Typical use | Hitting an exact size limit while keeping the whole picture: avatars, thumbnails | Cutting out a subject, a screenshot detail, or a fixed-ratio region |
Key differences
Image Resizer vs Image Cropper
What it does
Depends on the taskThe resizer scales the entire image to new dimensions; the cropper discards everything outside a chosen rectangle.
Input
Image Resizer wins hereBoth accept PNG, JPEG, and WebP; the resizer adds a batch mode for up to 12 files, while the cropper needs a crop region.
Output
Depends on the taskResized output keeps the whole scene at 1–8,192 px; cropped output keeps the original resolution of the surviving region.
Best for
Depends on the taskFitting a size limit with the full image intact points to the resizer; reframing or cutting a detail points to the cropper.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between Image Resizer and Image Cropper?
The resizer scales the whole image to new pixel dimensions — from 1 to 8,192 px, with an optional aspect-ratio lock and batch mode for up to 12 files. The cropper keeps the original resolution but removes everything outside a rectangle you position at exact pixel coordinates, freehand or at a fixed ratio. One changes size, the other changes framing.
Can I use Image Resizer and Image Cropper together?
Yes — a common pipeline is cropping first to reframe the subject, then resizing the result to the exact dimensions your target requires. Both tools run locally in the browser and keep your files on your device.
