AppShots

Design pixel-perfect App Store screenshots — device frames, panoramas, and every language.

AppShots is a focused screenshot studio for indie developers, ASO managers, and design teams who ship to the App Store and Google Play. Wrap your captures in real device frames, lay them out across a single cross-screen panorama, translate every caption into every language, and send the finished set straight to App Store Connect — or export a ZIP that drops into fastlane deliver. All on your Mac.

No account. No ads. No tracking. Your projects stay on your device.

Free & Pro

AppShots is free to download and the editor is complete from day one — every device frame, every layer tool, every language, and unlimited exports. Nothing is watermarked and nothing is time-limited.

Free includes:

  • Up to 10 projects stored in the app
  • All device frames, layouts, panoramas, backgrounds and layer tools
  • All languages, AI translation, CSV import/export and per-language fonts
  • Unlimited PNG / JPEG export, including the fastlane-ready ZIP

AppShots Pro adds:

  • Unlimited projects — the 10-project cap is lifted
  • Upload to App Store Connect — push a finished set to the editable version of your app from inside AppShots, with localizations and screenshot sets created or matched for you

Pro is an auto-renewable subscription, offered Weekly or Yearly; prices are shown in the app and vary by region. It unlocks on the Mac you subscribe on and restores on your other Macs with the same Apple ID. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.

Hitting the free cap never locks you out of your work — your existing projects stay open, editable and exportable. Only creating or importing an eleventh project asks you to upgrade.

Key Features

Send Screenshots to App Store Connect (Pro)

  • Push finished screenshots to the editable version of your app without a ZIP, a browser or a web form
  • Language localizations and screenshot sets are created or matched for you, and you can replace what is already there
  • Authenticated with your own API key (Key ID, Issuer ID and .p8) — stored encrypted on your Mac and never sent anywhere else

Device Frames for Every Store

  • Real device bezels across the lineup — iPhone 6.5” and 6.9”, iPad 13”, Mac, and Apple Watch
  • Android phone and tablet frames plus a Google Play Feature Graphic (1024×500) canvas — and a clean vector frame for any device, with an optional iOS status bar
  • Position any screenshot inside its frame: pan it horizontally or vertically and scale it to show exactly the part you want

Cross-Screen Panorama and Layout

  • Place 1–10 screenshots side by side and let a background or any layer flow across the seams — on export each frame is sliced to its exact pixels
  • Custom canvas sizes and fixed device orientations for anything non-standard
  • Layout templates — classic, tilted panorama, bottom-bleed or blank — and save any project as your own reusable template

A Real Layer Editor

  • Text (solid or gradient fill), images, shapes, a magnifier lens and device frames
  • Solid, linear and radial gradient backgrounds, per screenshot or globally, with a pro color picker: HSV, hex/RGBA, opacity and a screen eyedropper
  • Drop shadows that follow the real silhouette of a device bezel
  • Multi-select, align, distribute, rotate, scale, snap, lock, reorder, group, and undo/redo throughout

Built for Many Languages

  • Store caption text per language with automatic fallback to your default
  • One-click AI translation (bring your own OpenAI-compatible endpoint), a translation CSV import/export, or a side-by-side table to edit every locale at once
  • Per-language font mapping (e.g. Noto Sans SC / JP / KR) and automatic text shrinking when a translation runs long
  • Supports every major App Store storefront language

Import & Export

  • Drag in a whole folder — including fastlane’s screenshots/[locale]/ layout — or files named like zh-Hans_01.png, and AppShots assigns the language and frame for you
  • Export PNG or JPEG in a ZIP ready for fastlane deliver, with every image validated against its exact target dimensions
  • Generate a 6.9” set from a 6.5” project automatically (and the other way around)

A Document-Based Mac App

  • Every project is a .appshots file you can save anywhere and open by double-clicking it in Finder
  • One project per window, a native menu bar, and cut/copy/paste of layers across windows and projects

Private by Design

  • Everything runs locally — no account, no server, no telemetry
  • Your screenshots and projects never leave your Mac unless you export or upload them yourself

Why You’ll Love It

Store artwork usually means a design tool that knows nothing about App Store rules and a spreadsheet of translations that nobody wants to maintain. AppShots collapses both into one Mac app: frame it, localize it, ship it — and know the pixels are right before you ever open App Store Connect.
