Add Rounded Corners to Images
Soften image corners with a radius you control.
Drop an image here, or
Nothing is uploaded — the file stays in your browser.
Runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded, logged, or stored.
How to use it
- Choose an image.
- Drag the radius slider — it shows the pixel radius as you go.
- Round the corners and download the PNG.
What it does
Clips the image to a rounded rectangle so the corners become transparent. The radius is expressed as a percentage of the shorter edge, which means the same setting looks proportionally right whether the image is a small thumbnail or a full-width banner.
When you need this baked in
On the web, CSS border-radius is the better answer — it stays sharp at any size and costs nothing. Bake the corners into the file when CSS isn't available: slide decks, email templates, README images on GitHub, or app store screenshots.
FAQ
- Are my images uploaded to a server?
- No. Every tool here decodes and re-encodes your file using your browser's own Canvas APIs. The image never leaves your device, which is also why it works offline once the page is loaded.
- What does 50% do?
- On a square image, a 50% radius produces a circle. On a rectangle it gives you fully rounded ends, like a pill shape.
- Should I do this instead of CSS border-radius?
- Only when you can't use CSS. CSS scales cleanly and adds no file weight, whereas a baked-in radius is fixed and forces PNG output.
