Video Cropper — Crop & Resize Video Online

Crop and reframe your video right in your browser. Drop in a clip, pick an aspect ratio — 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 — slide the crop where you want it, and download a reframed MP4. No upload to a server, no account.

Your file never leaves your device.

Cropping runs in your browser

VidSnappy decodes your video, crops each frame to the region you choose and re-encodes it locally — nothing is uploaded to a server. Reframing stays private and starts the moment you drop a clip in.

Presets for every platform

Reframe to the shape each platform wants: 9:16 for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, 1:1 for feed posts, 4:5 for portrait posts, or 16:9 for widescreen. Slide the crop box to keep the important part of the frame in view.

A real reframed MP4 out

The crop is baked into a new MP4 — not a CSS trick or a preview. Download a genuinely reframed video that is already the right shape for the platform you are posting to, ready to upload as-is.

Drop in a clip, pick an aspect ratio, slide the crop where you want it and download a genuinely reframed MP4.

How to crop a video

  1. The Video Cropper before a file is added: a dashed drop area, an Aspect ratio menu and Position X and Y sliders.

    Step 01

    Add your video

    Drag an MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV onto the cropper, or click to choose a file. It loads straight from your device — no upload, no account.

  2. The Video Cropper with a clip loaded and the Aspect ratio menu set to 9:16, above the Crop video button.

    Step 02

    Pick an aspect ratio

    Choose 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9. The crop box snaps to that shape at the largest size that fits your video.

  3. The selected crop box being dragged across the video frame so the main subject remains inside the chosen composition.

    Step 03

    Position the crop

    Slide the crop box horizontally and vertically so the part of the frame you care about stays in view.

    Step 04

    Crop and download

    Click Crop. VidSnappy re-encodes a reframed MP4 in your browser; play it, then download the .mp4 file. Adjust and crop again any time — it is free.

Free to use, no account needed

Crop and resize video at no cost. There is no sign-up, no hidden limit and nothing to install — open VidSnappy in your browser, add your file and reframe. It works on desktop and on modern mobile browsers.

No upload, no queue

There is no file to upload and no server queue to wait in. VidSnappy crops on your own device as soon as you add a clip, so the reframe is limited only by your machine — not by a shared server.

Private by design

Because the crop runs entirely in your browser, your video is never sent to a server. That keeps client, personal and work footage private while you reshape it for social.

A true crop, baked in

The output MP4 is genuinely cropped to the region you picked — the pixels outside the box are removed, not hidden. That means it looks right everywhere, including apps that ignore aspect-ratio metadata.

Why crop and reframe

Every platform has a preferred shape. A widescreen video looks tiny in a vertical feed, and a square post wastes space on a widescreen player. Reframing to the right ratio makes your clip fill the screen where it will be watched.

Cropping also lets you cut out distractions at the edges and center the subject — a quick way to make a raw clip look composed before you post it.
