"A fun masking app for iPhoneographers: with a twist" - CultOfMac PopAGraph is a powerful photo editor that will transform your photos into insta art adding style and texture effects with minimal effort (no photoshop experience required!). Creating is simple! Take a photo or selfie with your camera, highlight or mask your subject and separate it from the background layer. Apply filters to the background (or subject) to create a dramatic contrast like those artistic pictures with black and white background and the subject has a splash of color. And if you desire, you can even erase the background and make it transparent! Add frames or borders over the “Popped” subject to create a 3D effect. Add or overlay multiple frames to create a freeform unique collage layout. Include a caption or create perspective text (yes, you can tilt the text to create a cool effect). PopAGraph is the perfect app to make your pics, selfies or meme POP for Instagram, IG Stories, Tiktok, Facebook, Line, Twitter. Or you can save your artwork as a Live Photo to use as a wallpaper.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: PopAGraph at freemium against Square Sized's subscription. PopAGraph also leads on review sentiment (81% vs 61%) and rating (4.4 vs 4.2). Square Sized's advantage is ratings volume (8.2K vs 301). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PopAGraph sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Square Sized sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PopAGraph holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Square Sized has 8.2K ratings behind it against 301, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of PopAGraph's written reviews are positive against 61% of Square Sized's.
PopAGraph ships an update every 5 weeks, Square Sized every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
