Desqueeze is an iOS app for batch resizing, reformatting and de-squeezing photos, videos and Live Photos. Items can be sized in pixels, aspect ratios or percentages using Stretch, Fill or Fit. Batch work can cover a full Photo Library album, including mixed photo and video items. The app provides more than 100 standard templates, and users can create personal templates or modify copies of standard ones. Supported photo formats are PNG, JPEG, HEIC and TIFF; supported video formats are MP4, QuickTime MOV and M4V. HDR processing and 12 color profiles, including Original (Automatic), are listed. Exports can be saved to the Photo Library or Files app and shared through services such as Instagram, Mail, Facebook and Messages. The free Basic plan supports photos up to 4,032 × 3,024 pixels and videos up to 1920 × 1080 pixels. PRO supports photos up to 18,000 × 12,000 pixels and video up to 8K. PRO costs $4.49 a month, $34.99 a year or $59.99, paid once for lifetime access. The app requires iOS 17 or later on iPhone and iPad, and Apple Vision compatibility with visionOS 1 or later is also listed. The developer indicates that identifiers, diagnostics and other data may be collected and linked to the user for analytics and app functionality.

ON1 Resize AI enlarges photos for prints, tighter crops, AI-generated images, and older-photo restoration. It can scale images up to 10×, with custom maximum scaling, and offers batch processing. The 2026 version includes a diffusion-based Highest Quality model and a faster Standard model for batch jobs and less powerful GPUs. Face recovery has a controllable strength setting. Print tools include mural tiling, gallery-wrap margins, sharpening and resolution presets, and soft proofing. Resize AI accepts RAW, PSD, PSB, TIFF, JPG, PNG, and HEIC files. It runs as a standalone app on macOS and Windows and as a plugin for Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom Classic. There is no free plan, but the fully functional 30-day trial has no limitations or watermarks, requires no credit card, and starts on first launch. The listed Photo RAW MAX plan costs $89.99 a year and includes the standalone app on three computers, an Adobe plugin, all ON1 apps, and future upgrades.
