User Reviews

Users praise its simplicity, speed and value, with strong upscaling results when it works and batch processing as a time-saver. However, reliability is repeatedly criticized: frequent crashes/freezes at high resolutions, inconsistent quality improvements, unreliable in‑app purchases, and uneven 8K support.

Pros

Easy to use / simple UI
Fast upscaling thanks to hardware acceleration
Impressive upscaling results when it works
Batch processing saves time
Good value / affordable one-time purchase

Cons

Crashes and freezes during upscaling/export, especially at higher resolutions (4K/8K) and after payment
Quality gains are inconsistent; sometimes no noticeable improvement
In‑app purchase issues / upgrade activation problems; paying but upgrade not applying
8K upscaling support unreliable or not consistently achievable

This does exactly what it says it does, and it does it well.

This app is very easy to use. I tried it out because my other app, the Open Source HandBrake have too many bells and whistles and I wanted something quick. Unfortunately, Unsqueeze have too many short comings, some of which are just unacceptable: 1. Not compatible with MacOS Quick Look feature; Quick Look offers a fast, full-size preview of nearly any kind of file without opening the file. 2. Unsqueeze is slower than Handbrake using MAC hardware encoding; 3. Unsqueeze does not handle any embedded chapter markers. They are all lost after the upscale encode. Too bad.

This app truly is a great upscaling App, but until recently 5/5/2025 I ran into an issue of upscaling video game recordings. I don’t know why but whenever I try to it cancels out and my phone vibrates like it’s “shaking its head no”. before this, I have had an issue with batch upscaling videos where they would duplicate instead of actually upscale as in I would have 17 or 18 video game clips for content, and after 6 of them, they would all duplicate and fill up those spots. I use this almost all the time whenever I make content because I think it makes the videos look great. I truly love this app. Developers, please get in contact with me. I also have a few ideas on options that you could add to the App!
