Square Frame

No-crop white borders for your photos. Pad each shot onto a clean white square, then save or share square JPEGs — batch a whole shoot, or frame your latest shots in one tap from the home-screen widget. All on-device, no account, no cloud.

What it does

No crop — your whole photo

Every shot is scaled to fit, never cropped, and sits on a clean white square with a thin black hairline frame and a soft drop shadow. Portrait or landscape, the whole frame stays.

Quick Frame widget

A home-screen widget frames a whole shoot in one tap. “Recent” squares your latest photos automatically; “Pick” opens the photo picker — no need to open the app first.

Save or share

Frame a batch and save full-resolution square JPEGs to your gallery, or send the framed copies straight to a share sheet — sharing frames without saving anything to your gallery.

On-device & private

No account, no network, nothing uploaded. Picking photos uses the Android Photo Picker (no permission); the widget’s “Recent” reads only your most recent photos to frame them.

A clean square frame

The output is a 2160×2160 white square. Your photo is scaled to fit — never cropped — centered with even white margins, and wrapped in a thin black hairline frame with a soft drop shadow. Exported as a full-resolution JPEG, ready for a feed.

Real export from the app — a portrait shot squared with no crop.
