### 4/5 — Useful, Lacks Steady Precision

*2021-03-03, version 4.4*

Thank You for fixing the NO ADS IAP!

The app is useful, but using it can be irritating due to its lack of precision control... pinch & zoom is a fine tool without a fine ability. I’ve taken to using a stylus in this app to goof some precision into my sleek graphic amalgamations.

REQUEST: Make the Settings gear icon do more than just restore purchases. 

SUGGESTIONS: Give options in settings for selecting sizing options either using pinch & zoom &/or inputting vectors, with maybe options of sizing by pixels or percentages?

### 3/5 — Don’t pay to upgrade

*2020-06-13, version 4.1*

The app works as it says..but I paid to upgrade so I wouldn’t have constant adds and literally nothing changed. I still get adds and it was a waste of $

### 2/5 — Ads are AWFUL EVEN ON PURCHASED VERSION

*2020-04-26, version 4.1*

I upgraded thinking I could get rid of the ads but they are still there. Super disappointed. Will be looking for another app to edit photos with. Used to be amazing.

### 3/5 — Whattttt the heck!

*2018-03-26, version 4.0*

I've used this app for like five years and now it has some random black line that is on the bottom and right side of the pictures when I upload them what's with that??? Can you fix it?

### 3/5 — love the app but

*2017-08-27, version 3.1*

there's a black line that shows up at the bottom of the photo after i save it. you better fix it or else i'll have to find a better app

### 3/5 — Good

*2017-01-12, version 3.1*

It worked good for me

### 2/5 — Black line.

*2016-12-09, version 3.1*

please fix it so that the black line around the pic goes away😑thank you

### 2/5 — Remove unwanted black line border!!

*2016-11-25, version 3.1*

My go-to app for resizing pics to keep them clean and simple but these lines that started appearing recently are destroying everything I love about it. Please fix this! (Will update to 5 stars if this issue is resolved)

### 4/5 — Black lines, bottom & right side

*2016-07-30, version 2.0*

I have used this app for years now and have had no problems ever. Until now. I get these weird black lines at the bottom edge of the photo, as long as the right side edge of the photo. This happened about 3-4 months ago, please fix asap. Stopped used this app for this reason and and considering downing something else. Nothing else fits my needs tho as this app is so simple & basic & it's why I am such a constant user. Running iOS 9.3.3 & have the latest version of square fx app.

### 3/5 — The latest update in June is not my fave

*2016-06-15, version 2.0*

I use this app each time I choose to resize an image. Ever since the latest update on June 8th the images have a thin, black border once uploaded to Instagram. How do I fix this? I was so happy with this app until now.

### 5/5 — Use it all the time!

*2015-04-06, version 1.4*

You know when you take a picture with front view camera, and your phone flips it? This app can flip it back. I also love it because I always take my photos with my square camera for Instagram, but the problem with that is that I can't make square photos my wallpaper because they don't fit the screen. This app helps me adjust square photos for my background. Great app!!

### 1/5 — Still ads

*2021-01-04, version 4.1*

I paid to upgrade the app to have no ads, yet ads still play after every other photo I save. This is a rip off!

### 1/5 — nope

*2020-11-06, version 4.1*

i paid for the upgrade just to get rid of the ads... didn’t work. i uninstalled & reinstalled the app... still got ads. i clicked the app support link... it’s a bad link.

### 1/5 — Ads no matter what

*2020-09-06, version 4.1*

Liked this app originally but the ads were annoying. Decided to upgrade, hoping to get rid of them but that didn’t happen, there are still ads!! Not worth it!!

### 1/5 — Ads

*2020-08-12, version 4.1*

I just paid $1.99 for this😒 please remove ads

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2020-07-11, version 4.1*

I had originally paid for this app and now ads show up even though I had paid for this...don’t download

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2017-10-03, version 3.1*

I’ve been using this app for a couple of years and it’s worked great.  Since I’ve upgrade to IOS 11.0.1 this app no longer allows me to pick photos.  It will show the photos briefly then black out. Please fix and I’ll re-review and use again.

### 1/5 — Please fix!!

*2017-02-01, version 3.1*

There is a black line under the picture whenever you use the app!!!

### 1/5 — Black border

*2016-08-09, version 2.0*

Last update started adding a thin black line around the photo, therefore making this app pointless for me. I was using this for years, but I switched to Square Fit

### 1/5 — Was my favorite app until update

*2016-07-20, version 2.0*

Why did you remove the dark plum purple. I use it for every photo and then it says I'll get every color with the purchase and because I need it I payed the $1.99 and it's still not there, you completely removed the color.

### 1/5 — @shel_bug

*2014-08-26, version 1.3*

Check out 99centbrainapps they have one that does what you said

*2023-02-02, version 4.5*

Works like a charm

### 5/5 — kinda love it.

*2016-07-03, version 2.0*

It's the not the best resizing app but it's simple and gets to the point, I've had it for years and it doesn't seem to disappoint me.

### 5/5 — GREAT APP

*2016-01-20, version 1.5*

I Was Just Looking For An App That Can Do What I Needed It For And This App Was Exactly What I Needed It's A Great App.

### 5/5 — Great app for photos

*2015-08-20, version 1.5*

Just used this and it's the best for uploading photos on Instagram. I would recommend this for anyone...

### 5/5 — Honestly, Get it

*2015-07-15, version 1.5*

I've been using this since I started posting things on media about 7 years ago. And let me say I loved it then and I love it now, it's easy, simply laid out, and best of all: no ads. I flipped when I realized that this app has it all without having to pay. I use it mostly for Instagram but you can use it for anything! If you need it, get it. It'll make a big difference in your photography I promise!

### 5/5 — Beats all other photo squaring apps

*2015-07-12, version 1.5*

I've tried them all and this one does the job in seconds with no effort at all. I just choose a picture, its instantly squared, i save it, and post it anywhere from my photos.

### 5/5 — Does the job!

*2015-06-23, version 1.5*

Quick, easy, fast and simple to use. Great and useful app and does what it says on the tin! Good.

### 5/5 — Fav App

*2015-06-21, version 1.5*

### 5/5 — Best picture border app

*2015-05-07, version 1.5*

It's probably the only simple picture border app. And the borders aren't as thick as the other apps and best of all... no annoying ads! 😁

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2015-05-03, version 1.5*

Really great app love it no ads Yas 👏🏼👏🏼
