Image Sizer 1.3 for iOS Offers Photo Editing and Resizing for Instagram - Published on 07/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

G-Power Team announces the release of Image Sizer 1.3, an important update to their photo editing app for iOS devices. Image Sizer includes a collection of easy to use photo editing tools that makes quick and easy work of resizing and posting pics to Instagram, Facebook, and other popular social networks. Anyone can move, rotate, scale or flip photos, add filters, and more to make their photos stand out. Version 1.3 adds new filters, colors, and shapes, as well as a new photo crop tool.

Xi'An, China - G-Power Team is proud to announce the release of Image Sizer 1.3 for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, an important update to their popular photo editing app. Image Sizer's collection of easy to use and all-inclusive photo edit tools makes it easy to resize and post pics to Instagram, Facebook, and other social networks. Anyone can select a photo, resize or rotate it, apply any of Image Sizer's fun filters, borders, cutouts or collages, and easily share it with their friends and family.

Image Sizer helps anyone edit and upload full size photos to Instagram easily and quickly. While most photos from an iOS device's Camera Roll are taken in landscape or portrait format, Instagram reformats those photos into a square format. Using Image Sizer, anyone can move, rotate, scale or flip their photos, and Image Sizer's amazing filters, patterns, colorful collage layouts, and overlay shapes will help make any photo stand out. Simply import any photo from the Camera Roll or album, or take a new photo with the camera function, and Image Sizer will fit the entire photo to a square canvas, making it perfectly formatted for upload to Instagram and other social networks.

What's New in Version 1.3
* New filters, new patterns, new colors, new shapes
* New photo crop tool
* Back to top level of tool bar by clicking photo canvas
* Fix several known bugs

"Instagram has the frustrating tendency to take whatever photo a user selects, and then formats it into a plain, square photo, possibly deleting important portions of the photo" says Eric Ge, of the G-Power Team. "So we developed Image Sizer to allow anyone to take a portrait or landscape photo of any size or shape, and make it fit into the format needed for uploading it to Instagram. We also added filters, borders, cutouts, collages, and the ability to flip, rotate, and scale photos, to make a user's photos really stand out when they're uploaded to any social network."

Image Sizer isn't limited to editing only photos that are already on a user's iOS device. Using the app's built-in camera functionality, anyone can quickly capture the moment, and then easily edit the new photo to save to the device's Camera Roll. Now, the new creation can be shared via social sites, messages, or email; either immediately, or at a later time.

Features:
* Designed layout with simple gestures
* Move, Rotate, Scale, Fit, Fill and Flip
* The quick and easy way to create a collage for photos
* Easily select the most important portion of the photo
* Create a picture with our fun shapes collage
* Lots of awesome filters and photo effects
* Tons of colorful backgrounds and beautiful patterns
* Quickly save to Camera Roll, or share to Instagram, Facebook and Twitter etc.

Image Sizer also isn't limited to only sharing a user's photos to social networks. Anyone can immediately share their photo creations via email or text message, or save it to their device's photo album for sharing with friends or family at a later date.

In addition to automatically formatting photos, Image Sizer also allows users to customize their photos using numerous filters, fun patterns, colors, and shapes, adding a unique look to any photo. The app offers a number of free, professional looking filters to apply to any photo, with more filters available via in-app purchases. Image Sizer also offers easy to use image editing tools that allow users to crop their photos, flip them vertically or horizontally, rotate them, and more.

Supported Languages:
Image Sizer supports English, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Traditional Chinese and Turkish languages.
