What does cropping a video do?

Cropping changes the visible picture by keeping one selected rectangular area. It can remove unwanted edges, but it cannot restore content outside the original frame.

Crop versus trim versus resize

Crop changes which part of the picture is visible. Trim changes the start and end time. Aspect controls set a supported output frame; they are not an arbitrary pixel-size or file-size resizer.

Which aspect presets are available?

The shared Editor includes Original, 9:16, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, and 4:5 presets with Fit or Fill behavior. Crop remains a separate control for positioning the visible source area.

Is cropping browser-local?

Yes for the normal workflow. The selected File becomes a local Blob/Object URL, and the current Editor previews and renders the crop in your browser without a server-side media upload.

Video cropper questions

Can I crop to 9:16 or square?

The current Editor includes 9:16 and 1:1 among its supported aspect presets. Use Aspect for the output frame and Crop for the source area you want to keep.

Does cropping compress the video?

Cropping requires rendered output, but this tool is not a target-file-size compressor and does not promise a smaller file.

Will the crop follow a person automatically?

No. Position and resize the crop area yourself; automatic subject tracking is not available.

Can I crop a TikTok URL directly?

No. Download an authorized video first or choose a video already on your device, then open it as a local file in the Editor.
