In some Android models open gallery, open the photo you want to edit, click the three vertical dots on the top right of screen, choose and click on "Open in Photo Editor Pro" (don't worry there is nothing to buy just advance photo editing built in to Android) now click on the "Transform" icon bottom left, then finally click on the "Perspective" icon of a skewed 9 pane window or graph and one has the choice of changing or correcting a skewed imaged by perspective either horizontally or vertically or both. This should square up most photos of crooked or skewed images, but it can't fix a complicated square image that is skewed in multi-planes, just simple tilted in a one dimensional plane. For that one needs Photoshop like editing or simply retake the photo being more careful to square up all corners on the image. Good luck all!
