AppScreens
App Store and Google Play screenshot generator with localization workflows.
Best for
- Store screenshots
- Localization
- ASO creative updates
Not good for
- Full product analytics or backend work
Pros and cons
Pros
- It runs entirely in the browser with no design tool required, so you can assemble framed, captioned store screenshots without opening Figma or Sketch.
- It organizes work into reusable projects, which makes refreshing a listing for a new release faster than rebuilding every frame by hand.
- The localization workflow keeps one layout across many languages, so translated captions drop into the same frames instead of being rebuilt per locale.
- It exports store-ready sizes for both App Store Connect and Google Play, which removes the manual resizing step before upload.
Cons
- It does not capture the raw screenshots for you, so you still produce the underlying app captures yourself.
- Localization arranges the layout but does not translate your caption copy, so you supply the translated strings.
- Public pricing figures were not readable from the official page on the day checked, so confirm current plan costs before you commit.
- As a creative-only tool it does no keyword research, so the words that drive App Store search still need a separate process.
AppScreens is a browser-based screenshot builder for the App Store and Google Play. It gives you device frames, captions, templates, and localized layouts, then exports store-ready sizes so you can prepare a listing without a design tool. For a solo iOS developer, the appeal is turning a set of raw captures into a polished, framed listing in an afternoon, and keeping many-language variants in one place.
It fits when you are preparing or refreshing a store listing and want localized frames quickly. It does not fit if you need App Store keyword research, analytics, or any backend work, because it is a creative tool only. If you already have a screenshot workflow you like in a design tool, the payoff is smaller. Screenshots Pro is a close alternative worth comparing.
Pricing
AppScreens uses a freemium model (checked July 19, 2026). There is a free plan that covers basic layouts and export, then paid Pro and Scale plans, billed monthly or annually, that unlock more projects, localization, custom fonts, multi-layer editing, and automatic App Store uploads. The higher Scale tier adds unlimited projects and an extended license for client work. The official pricing page is a JavaScript application whose exact figures could not be read on the day checked, so the specific plan costs are not stated here. Pricing last checked July 19, 2026; confirm current numbers on the official pricing page.
Setup and integration
AppScreens is web-based, so there is no SDK and nothing to add to your app. You import your own screenshots or start from a device frame, add captions, choose a device, and export every required App Store and Google Play size at once. Effort is low, and a first listing is the work of an afternoon.
Plan for the parts it does not do. It arranges and styles screenshots you already have, so you still capture the raw screens from the simulator, a device, or a tool such as fastlane. Localization lays out translated captions but does not translate them, so you provide the translated copy. Keep your frame sizes matched to the current App Store Connect requirements before you export.
Frequently asked questions
How is AppScreens different from Screenshots Pro?
Both are browser-based store screenshot builders with templates, device frames, captions, and localization. Screenshots Pro publishes a clear tiered price with a permanently free plan, while AppScreens organizes work into projects and leans on localization workflows for many-language listings. The choice usually comes down to which editor and template set you prefer.
Does AppScreens capture screenshots from my app?
No. It arranges and styles screenshots you already have. You take the raw captures from the simulator or a device, or generate them with fastlane, then bring them in to add frames, captions, and localized layouts.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. AppScreens offers a free plan that covers basic layouts and export, so you can prepare a simple listing at no cost, with paid plans adding more projects, localizations, and features (checked July 19, 2026). Confirm the current limits before you rely on them.
