## Description

Make your photos circular

Select your photo from device photo gallery and create a beautiful round picture of any part of it.

You can save the output image with "JPG" or "PNG" format.

Advanced:
There is an option to save the output image with "Transparent PNG" format — in which the outside of circle will be fully transparent (mostly for web pages, as noted at end of this text).

FEATURES
• Adjustable diameter of circle
• Optional background color (thousands of colors)
• Photo zoom and pan
• Photo rotate
• Output formats: JPG, PNG, Transparent PNG
• Export resolution: 16×16 to 4096×4096, square

*** Clarification about "Transparent PNG" pictures ***
This image format is mostly used for web pages. It's less supported on operating systems (such as iOS) and most photography apps.

However, these images are fine when used in web-sites / inside some apps [for example: Apple "Pages" app for iOS] / desktop photo editor softwares / or submitting avatar pictures on web.

The iOS Photos app displays the transparent pixels as white / and sometimes with sudden color-change to black. For most pictures, the transparency would be visible when you are playing (finger-zooming) with a thumbnail in photo gallery.

Another way to find transparency is to open the picture in "Circle Crop app" and then zoom-out with two fingers to view any transparent area.

## Review summary

Users praise Circle Crop for quick, easy circular crops and its straightforward interface, especially for portraits or contributor avatars. However, the main drawbacks are lack of video cropping, limited transparency options that force solid backgrounds or produce square/shaded results, and reports that the app sometimes behaves like it adds a border rather than performing a true crop.

### Pros

- Crops to a circle quickly and effectively
- Very easy to use with an intuitive interface
- Useful for creating small contributor portraits or avatars
- Lightweight UI with minimal pop-ups and clean design

### Cons

- Does not crop videos; only supports still photos
- Transparent backgrounds are not truly transparent; requires a solid-color backdrop or yields a square/shaded output
- Some outputs appear to be more of a bordered crop than a true crop
