SizeMatters: Maximize images to Instagram's maximum size limits without cropping. Have you ever wanted to post a portrait-orientation picture to Instagram, but when you go to do so, Instagram forces you to crop it because it is "too tall" for Instagram? This extremely simple, free, no-ads app is meant to operate just like a no-cropping, put-it-in-a-square app, for prepping your pictures to share on services like Instagram. The difference is that this app puts-it-in-a-rectangle that is the maximum size allowed by Instagram (1080x1350). This is super helpful for portrait images that are too tall for Instagram, or for sharing multiple images that all have different orientations and/or sizes. A free web-based version of this tool is also available for use on the app's website (http://sizematters.brettwhitelaw.com).

Verdict

The call

Square Sized and SizeMatters both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of SizeMatters's written reviews are positive against 61% of Square Sized's. SizeMatters also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). Square Sized's advantage is ratings volume (8.2K vs 4). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Square Sized holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Square Sized has 8.2K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Square Sized's written reviews are positive against 100% of SizeMatters's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
