Whitagram Reviews

by Kablooey Cares

I’ve been using this app for years. It was nearly perfect for intuitively cropping, straightening, and creating borders without it becoming some major task. It felt very streamlined yet professional. In fact it made Photoshop Express feel wonky and bloated.

I have now learned my lesson blindly updating my Apps! When I recently updated this app and opened it I learned that the Adobe Photo Editor is being discontinued and replaced by DS Editor which not only doesn’t allow me to straighten images but its interface looks and feels like a toy.

Boo hoo!

Whitagram can add blank or colored space to photos but only to make a square, for instance you can’t take an already rectangular picture and elongate it. Ex.) to take a photo and make it a phone background. Also, there are a few colors to choose from for the negative space, only a few, you can’t pick your own outside the selection. Increasing the negative space or changing the dimensions forces you to lose quality or crop the picture.

I think Whitagram serves a very basic purpose really simply: add a white border around your photos and crop them to square. There’s a few really frustrating problems, the biggest being that it takes at least one minute to load pictures from your library. Once you select them, it’s easy to set the border color. Sharing is easy to, but once you save the picture Whitagram freezes and you manually need to shut it down and reopen it, going through the long minute-to-open process all over again. Too bad I haven’t found any other free alternatives. It’s not my phone’s problems, I’m using the latest Pro iPhone each year, and this problem has been around since day 1.

I’ve been using Whitagram for years now. It’s my favorite frame app. But within the last year my most used frame has gone missing. The original frame pack says to locate the classic frames and find the signature frame pack in the store. I’ve tried everything. The signature pack does not exist. I would even pay for it considering how often I use it. 😩😩

I really like Whitagram - super helpful. But the thing is that I wish there were more color options or the background. Like maybe adding a color wheel or something so users could pick the perfect color and brightness that they want. I have hard time choosing a background color because there’s like 2 that are both equally not the best.

It’s been really good but after an IOS update or so the SAVE > INSTAGRAM doesn’t work anymore, Whitagram does redirect to Instagram but because the image with Whitegram wasn’t saved, Instagram brings me to the posting page and the picture I wanted to post (with white frame ) isn’t there. So I have to SAVE, and open Instagram separately and that defeats the whole purpose. That being said, I enjoy Whitagram and it make me happy posting pictures. Thanks!

So I’m actually in love with Whitagram but recently it’s been not working and shutting down on me :( I use Whitagram all the time but after I click on a photo to use it just exits out of Whitagram and doesn’t let me customize my photo. I’m unsure what the problem is but otherwise in love with Whitagram when it works

I like Whitagram a lot. It’s very simple. I use it for adding white borders to the top and bottom of photos so I can post photos of different sizes in a single Instagram post. Whitagram is a little slow to respond and freezes occasionally. But I can’t complain; Whitagram does exactly what I wanted it to do. The best part: no logo or watermark like you sometimes get with other free photo editing apps.

Since Instagram has been updated to include non-square crops up to 4x5/5x4 I wish there Whitagram included an option for adding borders in those ratios. As it is, I’m adding borders in this app and then using Max Curve to recrop to 4x5. This allow my images to show up larger in my followers feeds than if I just went with a square crop. Thanks!

Great for cropping tall photos. Whitagram is great and I hope the developers persist in making it better. Slowly but surely anyone can succeed and as a random person who also develops apps - I must say Whitagram has always came in clutch for me on Instagram!

by Grayson Trosk

I don’t use apps that have ads. So this one is great for that alone. I have no interest in the effects packs, so I’m glad Whitagram does not force them on me. However, I would be totally fine paying a one time premium to have it all/support the developer. So I would be happy if Whitagram costed $1-2.

Only thing I would ask is this: if I select an image for editing, but then want to go home without having made any changes to the image, I don’t think Whitagram should ask if I want to go back. I don’t really like prompts in applications, just slows everything down and feels clunky.

Thanks!

It has everything for your editing simply displayed. At first i just wanted an app for adding some borders but my experience was so satisfying i am starting to use this with most of my photos. I mean it won’t replace the big names but it’s not meant to, i guess. Thanks for keeping it clean and simple; i value that.

Finally an instagram editing app that doesn’t bombard you with ads. I’ve used other apps where i tried to save a picture fully edited and i had to pay to save it!

Thank you for this wonderful app. It is simple amazing. Everyone should download this!

by Peepsfromct

I use your app all the time and for some reason another app has invaded and I can’t do what I used to do with frames? What happened as I hate it??? Please put back what you used to do or do I just take the one I have out and start over? Please advise me. Thank you

This thing rocks. I hate cropping my photos, and I love the look of adding white borders in order to get that 1:1 aspect ratio, whether it’s for insta or for a profile photo of sorts.

You can easily add white edges to horizontal or vertical photos to get that square shape, and save to camera roll with one tap. Sometimes there are photo quality options and you can also upload to social media from Whitagram .

I love how easy it is to use. Minimal wait and minimal effort to get what I need.

In the past, I would have gone through the tedious process of doing it manually in photoshop— Whitagram saves me so much time and effort. Sometimes technology is awesome.

I love Whitagram and use it all of the time to get full size images from my DSLR to fit on Instagram without losing quality. I do have one suggestion- a group selection tool! I often post multiples from a shoot and it would be so much simpler to be able to select a few photos to be resized at one time. Otherwise, it’s super easy to use and really helpful!

I LOVE Whitagram!!! Everything I need to edit and post pictures is in Whitagram! The editing tools are basic but the pictures always turn out great! The best part is— almost everything is free. The only thing that isn’t is the typing tool but that’s ok! I don’t need to anyway. Every other asks you to pay a monthly fee but with this you don’t have to. GET Whitagram!! 👏🏻👏🏻

This is the one! Finally, after searching and searching, I found the one that does it all with no complications, no ads, and is even linked up with Adobe CC. It's simple and straightforward, nothing fancy, but offers all the tools and is easy to use. Get rid of whatever you've been using- this is the only app you need for it's purpose!

I am very delighted to have found Whitagram. It does not only let you add the white frame, but also adjust the frame to your liking. You only have several colors too. It does the job nicely. One great thing about Whitagram is that it does not add its logo to your frame, which some apps i used did and you have to pay to remove the logo. 5/5. I'm so tempted to delete all my photos and redo my entire feed.

by AlexBuch96

I love Whitagram. Have had no problems with it. I tried another with all 5 stars and it had so many adds and you have to pay for a membership to do anything. This has no ads and perfect for fitting pictures for Facebook!

I love Whitagram but recently every time I go into it and choose the picture I want it closes out of Whitagram and I don’t know why. Before that happened though I loved Whitagram . It lets you choose the frame of your liking and it’s in many colors
