Simple and sweet

For what I want to do anyways it fits my needs and no annoying ads or cooldowns or any of that. Straight to the point with resizing and whatever you need.

I really like it, long processing startup

It's the most robust app I've used, and almost the best of all I've tried. One annoying aspect of the app is the near 20 second startup time it takes to start processing the photos I choose. No idea why it takes that long.

THE solution for desqueezing anamorphic footage.

This was the answer I’d been looking for! If you have a Moondog Labs (or similar) 1:33 anamorphic lens for your phone and don’t necessarily want to use Filmic Pro or another app instead of using the native camera, then this is an essential purchase.
In my case I was using mine with the DJI app to do motion timelapses etc with my Osmo Mobile 2 but it that app doesn’t offer the option of desqueezing your footage whereas Filmic Pro will desqueeze but won’t allow you to do motion Timelapse or follow a subject while doing a Timelapse etc.
Doing it all in post was such a drag because it meant sending raw footage to my computer and using DaVinci Resolve to desqueeze it all and that meant editing everything on my PC editor which is fine for big projects but for quick Instagram and Facebook videos, it’s great to have an app which will do the job all there on my phone. It does lots of other cool things too but desqueezing anamorphic footage was what I wanted it for and it works like a charm.

Excellent

Having gone from an iphone 4s straight to an iPhone 7 plus I
had many older photos that didn't fit the screen properly hundreds of them and I just didn't have the time to resize them one by one but this app solved my problem I was able to resize over 900 pictures in minutes to properly fit the new screen now I can enjoy my older photos all over again this app does what it says it will do and I highly recommend it.

Yaaaas

So good keep up the good work

Great little resize app

I needed something to quickly resize some photos for web publishing. This one does the job reliably and quickly. Love it.

Not correct specs for recent iPhones

Basically useful but: Older iPhones created 8MP images of 3264x2448. Later iPhones create 12MPimages of 4032x3024. Currently, if you select a stretch for an anamorphic lens like the Moondog, this app DESAMPLES the image down to iPhone 6 spec and then stretches it. So, on an iPhone 8, desqueezing a 1.33 anamorphic image results in 4341x2448 instead of the correct 5363x3024. Lame.

[UPDATE]
This app defaults to iPhone 6 resolution as a starting point for any image, rather than using an imported image’s actual size. For iPhone 6s/7/8/X images this results in a 50% loss of data unless you manually reset the starting numbers every time. Again, lame. Developer responded basically with “too bad”, so my rating remains at 1 star.

Response from developer

There is no data loss, you just need enter desired size 5363x3024 once and it will be in the app until you change it.

iPhone 6

Works great with Moondog Labs Anamorphic lens for videos and photos

No real competition

The interface takes a little getting used to and there's no iPad optimization*, but if you need to resize photos (especially in batches) this is the app you need.

* The last few revisions have *totally* fixed this issue. This dev listens to customers.
