Resize any image by pixels or percentage — right in your browser

Our free Image Resizer changes the dimensions of your pictures without desktop software, an account, or a single upload to a server. It works by drawing your image onto an HTML canvas at the exact size you specify and re-encoding the result, so the entire process runs locally on your device. That means private family photos, confidential screenshots, and paid client assets stay entirely under your control from start to finish.

Resizing is one of the most common image chores: fitting a banner into a fixed layout, shrinking a photo so it uploads under a size limit, preparing thumbnails for a store, or matching a platform's required dimensions. This tool handles all of those with two simple modes — enter exact pixel values, or scale by a percentage such as 50% or 200% — and it shows you the resulting dimensions and file size live before you download anything.

Because the aspect ratio can be locked, you never have to do the math to keep an image from stretching or squashing; change the width and the height follows automatically. When you do need a precise non-proportional size, one toggle unlocks free resizing. Finished images export as PNG, JPG, or WebP with an adjustable quality control, giving you the same flexibility as paid editors in a page that loads in seconds on any device.

Why use Image Resizer?

100% private, no uploads

Resizing happens on the canvas inside your browser. Your images are never transmitted, logged, or stored anywhere.

Pixel or percentage modes

Type exact width and height, or scale proportionally by a percentage — whichever matches how you think about the job.

Aspect ratio lock

Keep proportions perfect automatically, or unlock the ratio for precise custom dimensions when you need them.

Multiple export formats

Download as PNG, JPG, or WebP with a quality slider to balance sharpness against file size.

Frequently asked questions

How do I resize an image without losing quality?

Use high-quality scaling and avoid enlarging beyond the original resolution. Our resizer uses the browser's high-quality image smoothing when redrawing to the canvas, which produces clean results when you shrink images. Downscaling always looks sharper than upscaling, so for best quality resize down rather than up.

Can I resize an image by percentage instead of exact pixels?

Yes. Switch to the Percentage tab and enter a value such as 50% to halve both dimensions, or 200% to double them. The tool calculates the exact pixel output for you and shows the resulting dimensions live before you download.

Does resizing keep the aspect ratio automatically?

By default the aspect ratio is locked, so changing the width updates the height proportionally (and vice versa). You can toggle the lock off to stretch an image to any exact width and height when you need a specific non-proportional size.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Every resize happens entirely inside your browser using the HTML canvas. Your images never leave your device, which makes the tool safe for private photos, confidential screenshots, and client work.

Which output formats can I download?

You can export the resized image as PNG (lossless, supports transparency), JPG (smaller files, ideal for photos), or WebP (modern format with excellent compression). For JPG and WebP you can also set a quality level to balance size against clarity.

Your privacy matters

Image Resizer runs entirely in your web browser. Your files, text, and data are never uploaded to any server, never stored, and never seen by us or any third party. This client-side architecture means you can safely process confidential business documents, personal records, and proprietary data without privacy concerns.
