The short answer

What does the rounded corners maker do?

Round image corners in your browser with Imagera’s rounded corners tool. Designers, sellers and people preparing slides can turn JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC pictures into curved tiles with transparent corners. Adjust the radius, choose a curve style and optionally add an outside border. A compatible mobile or desktop browser draws the curves locally, leaving transparent space outside them. 2 free downloads, 8 more after sign-in.

Did you know? Curved image edges facts

  1. For a 1200 × 800 picture, each percentage point of radius represents 8 pixels of the shorter side. The same percentage gives a larger pixel radius on a larger source.

  2. A border measuring 20 pixels on each side adds 40 pixels to both dimensions. A 1200 × 800 source then occupies a 1240 × 840 canvas, if the device can hold it.

  3. Rounding uses 1 source photograph and a geometric mask. It creates no new scene; the linked Pro Product Shot Maker can create a product photography setting from an image.

Set the curve by the picture’s shorter side

Radius is a percentage of the shorter side, not a fixed number of pixels. Its starting value is 8%. Raise it for a deeper curve or lower it when lettering sits close to a corner.

Images with different dimensions can share the same percentage while using different pixel radii. Compare the result at its intended display size. Rounding cuts away corner detail, so keep the original if that detail may be needed later.

Choose circular arcs or an app-icon curve

Corner style offers Round or Smooth (app icon). The default, Round, follows circular arcs. The other style uses a squircle-like curve that stays fuller near the corners and eases into the straight edges.

The styles do not trace the same outline at a matching radius. Try both on the same source before choosing a shape for a card or icon mockup. This is an image treatment, not a guarantee that the artwork meets an app store’s icon requirements.

Curve the upper edge while keeping the base square

In Advanced, Which corners offers All four, Top two or Bottom two. Rounding the upper pair can suit an image placed above a caption block. Rounding the lower pair leaves a straight edge at the top.

The selected corners share one radius and one curve style. There is no separate value for each corner and no diagonal-pair selection. For those shapes, use an editor with individual corner controls.

Why a curved picture still has rectangular bounds

The saved picture remains a rectangular grid of pixels. Rounding makes the pixels outside the curve transparent; it does not give the file a curved physical boundary. An editor can therefore show a rectangular selection box around a correctly rounded image.

Use the saved file in your layout and put a contrasting color behind it to check the corners. A viewer may display transparent areas on white or black. Taking a screenshot of the preview instead captures whatever background was visible there.

Let the outline grow beyond the rounded photo

Raise Border to add an outside edge, then choose Border color. Its starting value is 0%, so the initial result has no added frame. The border follows the chosen corner shape and expands the canvas instead of drawing over the photo.

Without a border, rounding keeps the working image dimensions. Very large files can be reduced when they exceed the device’s canvas limits, and adding a border can also trigger that limit. Check the result’s resolution before placing it in a layout that needs exact dimensions.

How do you use the rounded corners maker?

  1. Choose the picture to shape

    Add a JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC photo or screenshot, leaving room around any important corner detail.

  2. Set the curve and outline

    Adjust Radius and Corner style. Choose the corner group in Advanced, and add an outside border if needed.

  3. Run rounding and check the edge

    Start processing, inspect the curved corners and read the output resolution before using the result.

  4. Save your result

Rounded Corners Maker: questions and answers

How do I round the corners of a photo?

Choose the photo, set Radius and start processing. Check that the curve leaves important details visible. You can also change Corner style before running another version.

What does the corner radius percentage mean?

It is measured against the shorter image side. A wider banner and a square photo can therefore use the same percentage without having the same radius in pixels. The control does not accept a separate pixel value.

Can I make squircle corners for an app icon?

Yes. In Corner style, the app-icon option uses a fuller curve than a circular arc. It shapes the supplied artwork but does not generate a platform-specific icon package.

Can I round only the top corners and leave the bottom square?

Yes. Open Which corners in Advanced and select the upper pair. The lower pair stays square; choose the lower pair instead when the straight edge needs to sit at the top.

Can each corner have a different radius?

No. The available corner groups share the same radius. This tool cannot give each corner its own value or select only one corner.

Why is the saved image still a rectangle?

The canvas still has a width and height. Empty corner pixels provide the rounded appearance inside that rectangle. A rectangular selection outline in another app does not mean the rounding failed.

Why do the corners look white instead of transparent?

Your viewer may be showing empty pixels against white. Place the saved result over a dark layer to check. If a later editor flattened the picture onto white, use the original rounded result again and preserve transparency when exporting.

Which input formats work, and why does the output type change?

Apply curved corners to a JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC image. The engine always exports a lossless image type that stores transparency, so the saved extension may differ from the source. There is no output-format selector here.

Does rounding change the image size?

With no border, the result matches the working picture dimensions. A border adds space on every side. Device limits can reduce a large source or expanded canvas, so read the resolution shown with the result rather than assuming it matches the original.

Can a rounded border cover the edge of my photo?

The added border sits outside the photo. Increasing its width grows the canvas. The corner mask itself still removes the picture detail outside the chosen curve.

Is rounding corners the same as a circle crop?

Only a square source with circular arcs, every corner selected and the largest radius becomes a circle. A rectangle becomes a pill shape under those settings. Use Profile Picture Maker for the separate portrait-cropping workflow.

Will the curved edges look jagged?

The engine uses a mask with softened edge pixels to reduce stair-step outlines. A tiny source can still look rough when enlarged elsewhere. Inspect it at the display size you intend to use.

Can I round a phone screenshot’s corners?

Yes. Add the saved screenshot as an image and adjust its curve. The tool does not capture your screen or detect the exact outline of a particular phone. For a gradient backdrop and shadow, use Screenshot Beautifier.

Does corner rounding work on my phone without uploading the photo?

The picture is decoded and masked inside your browser on the device. Use a current browser with image and canvas support. If the phone runs out of memory drawing the rounded tile, retry with a lower-resolution source.

Do I need to sign up or sign in to use the round the corners of an image?

Your first 2 downloads are free with no account. Sign in free for 8 more. Any paid Imagera plan makes downloads unlimited, and adds AI credits for the paid tools. Processing and the preview are always free.

Will the download have a watermark?

Your first 2 downloads and every download on a paid plan have none. Free downloads 3 to 10, after sign-in, carry a small “Made with imagera.ai” badge in the corner. The result on screen is always clean.

Can I round the corners of multiple images at once?

Batch processing needs any paid Imagera plan; one file at a time is free.
