A normal resize squashes everything: faces get thin, circles turn into ovals, buildings lean. Smart Resize takes the space out of the background, so faces, products and round shapes keep their proportions. Square to story, photo to banner, wide to square, without cropping anyone out.

Reformat one picture for every feed (1:1, 4:5, 9:16, 16:9) without reshooting or cutting your subject in half. Fit a product shot into a fixed banner. Bring two people closer together. Protect a face or a logo with one selection, or select something you don't want and watch the picture close up around it.

Free and unlimited. It runs right in your browser: no credits, no upload, no sign-up.
