Square Fit answers the photo border question for people who mostly post to social media. It fits the full photo or video to the canvas size or aspect ratio you choose, then lets you dress it up with borders, frames, blurred backgrounds, shapes, rounded edges, shadow, patterns and solid color. The listing counts thousands of colors and 40 free pattern backgrounds, over 30 free filters, text captions and stickers, and it exports at high, print quality resolution. Because it handles video too, the same border style can carry across a mixed feed. Premium costs $2.99 a month with a 3 day free trial and adds all stickers and overlays, 50+ pro patterns, pro fonts, custom photo backgrounds and no ads; a $49.99 Pro Upgrade is also listed. It does not offer themed decorative frames, so it is not the app for a wooden or holiday frame, and it is iPhone and iPad only. It holds 4.9 from 76K ratings. We compared documented features and published prices.
