Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: InstaSize at none against Quick GIF Editor's shown. InstaSize also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 15 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). Quick GIF Editor's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 58%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. InstaSize sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Quick GIF Editor sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

InstaSize holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InstaSize has 325K ratings behind it against 299, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of InstaSize's written reviews are positive against 83% of Quick GIF Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

InstaSize ships an update every 10 days, Quick GIF Editor every 15 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 16, 2026 respectively.
