Resize Image to 120×120
120×120 is the iPhone app icon at 2× density — a 60-point icon drawn with twice the pixels. It also works as a crisp small avatar or list thumbnail. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Need a smaller file instead? Compress or convert.
Drag the preview to choose which part of the image is kept. The same framing is used for every image in the batch.
Why choose 120×120?
120×120 gives a square canvas with a 1:1 ratio and 0.01 MP of detail. People most often need it for avatars, icons and thumbnails.
1:1 square shape
The square (1:1) proportion decides how your photo is framed: plan the subject around that shape before you crop.
Where it is used
120×120 suits avatars, icons and thumbnails. Using the exact size avoids a website scaling or cropping your image on its own.
Prints 0.4×0.4 in at 300 DPI
That is 1×1 cm at photo quality, or 0.8×0.8 in at 150 DPI for posters viewed from a distance.
About 2 KB–4 KB as JPG
A typical photo at 120×120 saves to roughly 2 KB–4 KB at good JPG quality; WebP is usually 25–35% smaller.
Sharp results
A 12 MP phone photo has 847× more pixels than 120×120, so resizing down keeps it sharp.
Framing control
Filling 120×120 from a 4:3 phone photo trims about 25% of it. Drag the preview to choose what stays, or tick “Keep aspect ratio” to keep it all.

120×120 for icons and avatars
iOS icons. iPhone home-screen icons are 60×60 points; on 2× Retina screens that is 120×120 pixels, on 3× screens 180×180. Modern Xcode projects generate these from one 1024×1024 master, but web clips and older build tools still ask for individual files.
Don't round the corners yourself. iOS applies its own rounded mask. Supply a plain square with a solid background — transparent corners turn black.
Avatars and thumbnails. 120 pixels shows a face clearly in comment lists and contact cards, and looks sharp at 60 CSS pixels on high-DPI phones.
The 3× version is 180×180; for Android icons see 192×192 and 96×96.

Frequently asked questions
Is 120×120 the iPhone app icon size?
It is the 2× size of the 60-point iPhone home-screen icon. The 3× size is 180×180. Supply a square without transparency; iOS rounds the corners.
What aspect ratio is 120×120?
120×120 has a square (1:1) aspect ratio. Any size with the same ratio — for example 128×128, 112×112 — can be scaled to it without cropping.
How big will a 120×120 image print?
At 300 DPI (photo quality) 120×120 prints at 0.4×0.4 inches (1×1 cm). At 150 DPI it covers 0.8×0.8 inches, fine for posters seen from further away.
How large is a 120×120 file?
A photo at 120×120 is usually 2 KB–4 KB as a JPG, and about 2 KB–3 KB as WebP. If you need it smaller, run it through the compressor afterwards.
Will my photo lose quality at 120×120?
No — a normal phone photo is much larger, so it is scaled down and stays sharp.
Can I resize to 120×120 without cropping?
Yes. Tick “Keep aspect ratio”: the whole picture is kept, but one side may come out shorter than 120×120. Without it, the image fills 120×120 exactly and the edges that do not fit the 1:1 shape are trimmed.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Resizing happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is transmitted or stored, and you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
