This tool needs JavaScript. Turn it on in your browser — or use the Telegram bot below, it does the same.

Choose a photo, **drag** it to place the face in the circle, **zoom** if needed and download a round **PNG** with transparent corners — ready for an avatar or a sticker. Add a white outline with one tap.

Works in your browser: what you type or choose stays on your device and is not uploaded anywhere.

## How to use it

1. **Choose a photo** —  Tap **Choose a photo** and pick it from your gallery or files.
2. **Place it in the circle** —  Drag the photo to move it and use **Zoom** to fit the face. Turn on **White outline** if you like.
3. **Download** —  Tap **Download PNG**: you get a 1024 × 1024 picture with transparent corners.

## Why do it here

- **Nothing is uploaded** The file is processed on your device, so private photos and documents stay with you.
- **Free, no sign-up** No account, no daily limit and no watermark on the result.
- **Works on your phone** Open the page in any browser on iPhone or Android and pick a file from the gallery.
- **Also in Telegram** Prefer a chat? The bot below does the same right in Telegram.

## Questions

**What size is the picture?**

1024 × 1024 px, a PNG with transparent corners outside the circle.

**Can I use it as a Telegram or Instagram avatar?**

Yes. Apps crop avatars into a circle themselves, so a round picture with the face in the middle looks exactly as you placed it.

**Is the photo uploaded?**

No. Everything happens in your browser on your device.
