About circle crop
Circle Crop is part of the PixelDesk basic editing collection. Crop a photo into a perfect circle with transparent corners. Everyday corrections — cropping, rotating, watermarking, metadata and background clean-up — without installing an editor.
Because everything is processed locally, circle crop works instantly even on large files, keeps full quality until you choose to compress, and never stores a copy of your picture. There is no queue, no sign-up and no daily limit.

- Which devices and browsers work?
- Any modern browser on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android or iOS. After the first visit most tools keep working offline.
