### 4/5 — I like but needs one last detail

*2026-02-16*

Would be great if with the Frame tool you could choose to have the frame IN the borders of the photo (current) or OUTSIDE the borders of the photo. Thanks for considering. :)

### 3/5 — Not very intuitive

*2024-12-28, version 2.8.28*

Not very intuitive.

### 5/5 — 複数写真に対して…

複数写真に対して一括でフレームをつけられるようにしてください

### 5/5 — It makes the photo correctly sized for instagram

便利で簡単だけど10枚単位でやりたいので面倒

### 4/5 — ➡️ 要望

*2024-05-06*

料金追加してでもいいので、複数選択出来るようにして欲しいです。

### 5/5 — 快適

*2024-05-04*

ずっと無料のを使ってたけど、だんだん広告見るのがうっとうしくなって買いました。
買い切りだし、もっと早く買えばよかったと後悔するぐらい快適です。

### 5/5 — Essential app for Instagram

*2024-04-29, version 2.8.26*

Easy to use Doesn't glitch Been using for almost 10 years!!!

2o24: still awesome

### 4/5 — Only one thing to improve

*2024-04-22, version 2.8.26*

The ONLY thing that I would love to see implemented is to do photos in batches. Doing one at a time takes a long time and it would be nice to select multiple photos and have the app automatically convert to squares

### 5/5 — Love this app.

*2024-03-06*

There is no app that even compares to this app.

### 3/5 — Great app but one thing...

*2023-12-29, version 2.8.26*

STILL waiting years and years later for larger screen compatibility. My last review for this was about my iPhone 6 Plus. That was from 2014! NINE YEARS AGO! I’m now on an 11 Pro Max still going strong and STILL awaiting for a more optimized UI.

### 4/5 — Good app

### 4/5 — Unterschied iphone/ipad

*2023-01-05*

Nutze die app gerne, um einen Rahmen für Instagram zu erstellen. Aber: Warum kann ich auf dem iphone eine hohe Auflösung nutzen, sie auf dem iPad zwar in den Einstellungen anklicken, in der app aber nicht nutzen/auswählen?

### 5/5 — The go to app for photography editing

*2022-10-19, version 2.8.21*

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2025-12-19, version 2.9.0*

This app used to be awesome- now it’s super buggy. Bummer.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2025-06-06, version 2.8.28*

Not very user friendly

### 1/5 — 有料アプリなのに課題が多すぎる更にフィードバックしても意見が全く反映されない

*2025-04-19*

有料アプリなのに課題が多すぎる。
無料アプリなら分かるが更にフィードバックしても意見が全く反映されない。

有料アプリなのだから、クリップボードに『#squaready』を置き換えるは迷惑だからやめて欲しい。
せっかく書いた文章をクリックボードに置いていたのに、強制で置換されて大迷惑。
無料版ならまだしも有料版アプリなのだからここはいい加減改善して欲しい。

またWebPの貼り付けに対応してほしい
そして写真アプリなどの共有メニューのアプリ一覧から起動できるようにして欲しいです。

AppleCareに電話したところ開発元に連絡してくれと言われたので、出来たらiPhoneでもiPadでも共有メニューのアプリの一覧から起動できるようにして欲しいです。

極めつけには無料版アプリは定期的に修正アップデートが来ているのに、有料版は半年以上も放置されている。

フィードバックしても意見が改善されないし正直無料番でもいいかと思う残念な有料アプリです。

### 1/5 — Freezes often

*2021-08-04, version 2.8.16*

Not consistently available. Freezes.

### 1/5 — Recent Glitches

*2021-01-30*

App just goes dark and freezes. Help!?

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2020-05-14*

### 1/5 — waste of money

*2019-07-15, version 2.8.9*

I bought this version because the free version of it kept uploading my photos blurry. 
And now I’m having the same problem on this app. I don’t understand why. Wasted my money.
