App Store Screenshot Templates

Last updated:

Here you choose an App Store screenshot template or a ready-made set for a new project or a new set. Every template adapts to the page shape: phone portrait, iPad portrait, landscape, banner, and Mac with a notebook body. That gives your App Store screenshot design a consistent start.

  2. Choose the kind of output: Screenshots, Header & Event, or Launch & Social.

The Format field names Apple's requirement, such as “Required for iPhone apps”. Source Language offers six languages for the sample texts; the default follows your system language.

Header, event, and launch

You can design these templates for free. Exporting their formats needs Pro.

Templates for launch graphics.

Apple Watch uses the Watch Screen template; Apple TV and Vision Pro use Full Screen. Both are borderless and free to design.

Templates work only within the same kind. The gallery offers only what suits each format:

  • Phone · 9:16 gets no Testimonial template and no ready-made sets.
  • Banner · 1024 × 500 gets only Big Claim, Launch Hero, and Three Highlights.
  • Product Hunt · Logo offers no What’s New template.

For formats for other stores, the gallery notes: export as PNG without transparency, and ratings, rankings, and prices don't belong in the image.

Ready-made sets

A ready-made set mixes templates in a fixed order and names each image after its job, such as “1 · Main benefit”.

Sample texts

Templates come with sample texts in German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, and Japanese. They are placeholders and haven't been checked by native speakers. Replace them with your own texts before exporting.

Free and Pro

These are free:

  • nine screenshot templates: Value Hero, Benefits, Feature Cards, Focus, Bold Statement, Editorial, Split, Minimal, Clarity
  • the ready-made sets Classic Product Page and Calm and Premium
  • the templates for Watch, TV, and Vision
  • all header, event, and launch templates for designing

All other templates and sets carry PRO. For them, Create opens the purchase page. The template advisor needs Pro as well.
