The Border App helps you create clean, exhibition-style borders for your photos. Many editors shrink your photo to fit a border. The Border App does the opposite: it keeps every original pixel and places the image on a larger canvas, so nothing is resampled down. Designed for photographers and creators who care about presentation, The Border App lets you add precise borders without resizing artifacts, quality loss, or metadata loss. Features: • Exhibition-style borders with precise control • True original-resolution export at maximum quality • Web-friendly export option • Preserves EXIF and GPS metadata • Multiple aspect ratios • Subtle depth without artificial shadows • Share photos straight from the Photos app No accounts. No watermarks. No ads. Your photos stay yours.
