## Review summary

Users praise Square FX for its simple, fast resizing and square-format border tools, often used for Instagram. The app is widely appreciated for being ad-free after an upgrade and for its straightforward workflow. However, multiple reviews complain about ads not being removed for some users, and persistent black border artifacts appearing after saves. Some mention a lack of fine-grained precision controls, with a desire for more sizing options. Overall, solid basic tool but has recurring visual artifacts and upgrade reliability issues.

### Pros

- Simple, easy-to-use interface for quick resizing and square formatting
- Generally ad-free after upgrading, with positive feedback about no ads
- Reliable for Instagram uploads and benefits from the shape/border overlay features
- Lightweight and fast, making resizing and saving straightforward

### Cons

- Ads persist or return after paying for the upgrade (ad removal not working for some users)
- Persistent black border/line artifacts around or under the image after saving or uploading
- Lack of fine-grained precision controls (limited options for precise sizing)
