There is no limit, but since processing happens in the browser, very large numbers of images or very large files may affect performance depending on your device.

By default, images are cropped from the center. You can click or drag anywhere on the image to set a custom focal point, and the crop will adjust to keep that area in frame.

ID photo and paper sizes use millimeter measurements. The system automatically converts them to pixels at 300 DPI, suitable for printing.

This feature requires the File System Access API, currently supported only in Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge). For Firefox or Safari, use "Download ZIP" instead.

Check that you've entered watermark text and that the watermark color isn't too similar to the image background. Font size scales with output dimensions — preview the watermark on the image card before exporting.

TapCrop works in all modern browsers: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. For the best experience, we recommend Chrome or Edge which support the "Save to Folder" feature.

Simply drag your HEIC files into TapCrop. They are automatically converted to JPG during upload. You can then crop, resize, or compress them and download as JPG, PNG, or WebP.

TapCrop is completely safe. Your images are processed 100% locally in your browser using JavaScript — they are never uploaded to any server. We cannot see, access, or store your images. There is no tracking of image content.

Use the compression slider in TapCrop. At 80% quality, most images look identical to the original while being 40-60% smaller. For web use, 70-80% is the sweet spot. You can preview the file size before downloading to find the right balance.

Upload all your product images at once (drag & drop or file picker), set your desired dimensions (e.g. 2000x2000 for Amazon, 1080x1080 for Etsy), and click Process. All images are resized to the same size with smart focal point detection to keep your products centered. Download as a ZIP file.

Since TapCrop runs in your browser, there is no server-imposed file size limit. The practical limit depends on your device memory. Most modern devices can handle images up to 50MB or 8000x8000 pixels without issues. For very large files, processing may take a few extra seconds.
