How to resize JPG Images

  1. 01.

    Add your JPG images.

  2. 02.

    Pick a preset or enter a width and height, then choose fit or crop.

  3. 03.

    Check the preview, process, and download.

Fit or crop

Fit without cropping keeps the whole photo inside the size you enter, never stretches it, and never enlarges it. Crop to exact size gives exactly the width and height you ask for and trims the edges that do not fit, keeping the center.

See the result before you download

The preview shows your photo with the part that will be kept, the exact output size and ratio, and a warning if the photo has to be enlarged or stretched. Presets cover Instagram, stories, X, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, and web banners.

Photo sizes for social media

All of these are presets in the tool. Pick one and the photo is cropped to the exact size:

Common problems and how to fix them

  • Part of the photo is cut off

    A preset crops to the platform’s exact shape. Check the darkened area in the preview, or choose “Fit without cropping” to keep the whole photo.

  • The result looks soft

    The photo was smaller than the target and had to be enlarged; the preview warns you. Start from a larger original when possible.

  • The file is still heavy

    Continue to Compress from the results and choose 75–85 quality.

🔗 Keep going without uploading again

Resize first, then Compress: smaller dimensions plus a lower quality give the lightest files.

Frequently Asked Questions

We answer your questions about privacy, features, and limits.

Will resizing crop my photo?
Only if you pick a preset or choose Crop to exact size, and the preview shows exactly what is removed. Fit without cropping always keeps the whole photo.
Can I make an image bigger?
Fit without cropping only reduces images. Crop to exact size can enlarge a smaller photo to fill the size; the preview warns you, because enlarging cannot add detail.
Which size should I use for Instagram?
Use Instagram square (1080 × 1080) or Instagram portrait 4:5 (1080 × 1350) for feed posts, and Story / Reel / TikTok (1080 × 1920) for stories and reels.
Can I resize many photos at once?
Yes. Apply one size to up to 20 photos and download them as a ZIP.
How much lighter does a phone photo get?
A 12-megapixel photo (4000 × 3000) resized to 1200 × 900 keeps only 9% of its pixels, so the file becomes much smaller.
Can I crop several photos to the same size?
Yes. Add up to 20 photos, pick a preset or choose “Crop to exact size”, and each one is cropped around its center.
