Features

Built for real work

Everything you need to create a polished, professional star crop — nothing you don't.

100% private by design

No server uploads. All processing runs locally in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images never leave your device.

Real-time rendering

Every adjustment — angle, scale, colour, border — previews instantly. No lag, no refresh, no waiting for a server response.

Transparent PNG export

Remove the background entirely and export a transparent PNG — ideal for logos, badges, profile pictures, and design composites.

2× high-resolution export

Enable the HD mode for double-density output — crisp and sharp on Retina displays, print materials, and social media headers.

Custom borders and shadows

Add a stroke in any colour at any width, and apply a soft drop shadow to give your star crop depth and visual weight.

Touch and mobile ready

Drag to reposition with your finger, scroll or pinch to zoom, and adjust angle with a tap — works on any phone or tablet.

FAQ

Common questions

How many points can the star have?

You can choose anywhere from 4 to 10 points using the Star points slider, covering everything from a simple four-pointed sparkle to a dense ten-pointed star.

Can I make the star points sharper or rounder?

Yes. Use the Point sharpness slider to control how deep the inner notches are, from long sharp spikes to soft blunt points.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

Never. Every operation — loading, cropping, exporting — runs entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images never leave your device.

How do I crop with a transparent background?

Toggle on "Transparent background" in the Export panel, then download as PNG or WebP. JPG does not support transparency.
