Data handling and processing behavior
Processing is handled in the browser for this tool based on the current public implementation. Avoid selecting sensitive images unless you have reviewed the implementation and your own data handling requirements.
Step-by-step use
- Select or inspect the intended preview image
- Review width and height
- Compare the aspect ratio with a wide card target
- Check file size and readability
- Confirm the page metadata points to the same asset
Common errors
Important text near edges. Platforms may crop differently.

Limits
The checker reviews image properties. It does not control platform caches or final cropping decisions.
