Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Square Sized at 4.2 against Photo Crop's 2.0. Square Sized also leads on review sentiment (61% vs 24%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 34 months). Photo Crop's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
