Continuing my earlier tests with version 1.0.2 of Gigapixel, here are some results using originals shot with an iPhone 6 and upsized to 600%. Gigapixel certainly helps with the inherent mushiness of the iPhone JPEGs.

I think you get the idea! Even with less-than-DSLR quality images, A.I. Gigapixel makes the image as good as it can be, surviving a severe crop or ready for seriously enlarged use in a poster or banner.
INFO: The current Gigapixel 1.0.2 update addressed the following items:
- Fixed a problem with custom ratios, which should now work correctly
- Fixed a problem that prevented the Start button from enabling when using inches value
- Fixed a problem where the installer would stall after user accepted terms & agreements
- Fixed a problem where A.I. Gigapixel saved images at 72ppi with no regard to the input ppi value
- Fixed a problem that was contributing to underexposure in some images
