You've spent hours, maybe weeks, on a piece. Showing it off shouldn't take another afternoon in Photoshop. WallStage puts your artwork on real walls, at its real size, with the room's own perspective, light and shadow. Make a mockup in minutes and post it straight to Etsy or Instagram. SEE IT TRUE TO SCALE Set your print size in inches or centimeters and WallStage hangs it exactly that big. A 16×20 looks like a 16×20 above the sofa, not a guess. WallStage even suggests a size that suits the wall and the furniture below it. 80 ROOMS, OR YOUR OWN Start with 80 photorealistic rooms across 10 categories: living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, nurseries, studios, beach houses, rooms with a view and more. Or photograph your own wall and measure it with your camera, so collectors can see the piece in a real home. PLACE IT BY HAND Drag and pinch your art on the wall. It snaps to the center, to the furniture and to sensible hanging heights, and steers clear of windows and doors in the built-in rooms. FRAME IT LIKE THE REAL THING Classic frames, floaters, shadow boxes, gallery-wrapped canvas and poster hangers in 16 finishes, from matte black and natural oak to antique gold. Add mats in 9 colors, with double and bottom-weighted options. BUILD GALLERY WALLS Duos, trios, grids of four, six or nine, and salon walls. Choose which piece hangs where. READY FOR EVERY POST Crop for Etsy, Instagram, Stories, print, web and banners, or zoom in for a close-up on the art. Export full-resolution images. KEEP EVERY MOCKUP Every mockup you save or share is kept in Mockups, ready to reopen, change, duplicate or share again. PERFECT YOUR ARTWORK FIRST Photographed your painting at an angle? Straighten it. Crop it, remove the background from sculptures and objects, and fine-tune exposure, contrast, saturation, warmth, sharpness and clarity. AI WHEN YOU WANT IT • Generate new rooms in any style you can describe, with a clear wall saved for your art • Restyle a room — new paint, new furniture, new light — without touching your art • Generate new artwork, or fix glare, edges and colors on your own photos with a sentence • Compare every AI edit with your original before you keep it. AI edits are saved as new pieces, so your original is never changed. ARTISTS AND SELLERS USE WALLSTAGE TO • Create Etsy and print-shop listings that stop the scroll • Help collectors picture the piece in their own home • Plan a gallery wall before a single nail goes in • Keep every listing consistent and professional FREE AND PRO Try WallStage free with the sample artwork and one piece of your own (exports carry a watermark). WallStage Pro unlocks all of your own art and rooms, every room, frame, mat and gallery layout, full-resolution exports with no watermark, and the AI tools. Choose weekly (with a 3-day free trial), monthly or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. You've done the hard work. Give your art the stage. Questions? support@wallstage.app Terms: https://www.wallstage.app/terms Privacy: https://www.wallstage.app/privacy

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WallStage at 100% against InsituArtRoom's 40%. WallStage also leads on rating (4.2 vs 3.3). InsituArtRoom's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
