Upload photos to Instagram without cropping on Android/iOS [iPhone+iPad]

Recently, while uploading a photo to Instagram it prompted to crop the image which was resulting in a person’s face being cropped and other background scenery also being missed out from the photograph, This problem is due to the fact that Instagram requires Square sized image and the photos clicked by our phone camera’s are rectangular sized . Now I wasn’t interested in posting the square-cropped photos to Instagram, and hence was looking out for solutions on how to upload photos to instagram without cropping on android / ios . So , here it is – InstaSquare app – to upload images to Instagram without cropping  (On android devices / iPhones / iPads).
