What This Tool Does
This generator turns a plain, un-framed screenshot into a store-ready listing image: it adds a device frame, a background, and a headline and subheadline, then exports a PNG sized for the App Store or Google Play. It is built for indie developers, solo founders, and small teams who need a decent-looking screenshot today, not a design system.
It is not a replacement for a full brand identity or a hand-built Figma layout. It uses a fixed set of gradient backgrounds and a single layout, so it will not produce a unique art-directed look. For a first listing, a quick refresh, or an app that just needs to stop looking like a raw simulator capture, it gets you there in about two minutes with no account required, though exports carry a small watermark. Watermark-free exports come from the AI-powered Screenshot Studio on a Pro or Business plan.
Screenshot Generator vs. Canva vs. Figma vs. a Designer
| Option | Cost | Time per screenshot | Design skill needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| This generator | Free | ~2 minutes | None, backgrounds and layout are built in |
| Canva | Free, paid tiers for premium assets | 15-30 minutes | Some, you pick and adapt a template |
| Figma | Free, paid tiers for teams | 30-60+ minutes | High, you build the device mockup and layout yourself |
| Hire a designer | $100-$800 per set | 3-7 days turnaround | None from you, but slow to revise |
How It Works
Take a plain screenshot
Capture your app on a simulator or real device. Any resolution works, the tool crops and scales it to fit the frame.
Upload it and pick a background
Drop the image into the uploader above and choose one of the gradient presets that matches your brand.
Write a benefit-driven headline
Say what the user gets, not what the feature is called. "Never Miss a Bill" beats "Notifications Settings."
Download the PNG
Export at the exact size Apple or Google requires and upload it straight to App Store Connect or Play Console.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this screenshot generator really free?+
Yes. It runs entirely in your browser, needs no account, and you can download as many images as you want. Downloads include a small WhixFrame watermark.
What sizes does it export?+
1290×2796 pixels for the iPhone 6.7 inch requirement and 1080×1920 for Google Play. Check the full size reference below if your target device needs a different dimension.
How do I remove the watermark?+
Upgrade to a Pro or Business plan and use the AI-powered Screenshot Studio, which also adds AI-generated backgrounds, headline copywriting, and batch generation for a full listing set.
Do I need design skills to use this?+
No. The layout, spacing, and device frame are handled for you. You only pick a background, upload an image, and write two short lines of text.
Can I use my own brand colors?+
The free version offers a fixed set of gradient presets. If you need exact brand hex values, use the color palette generator to check contrast, then match the closest preset here, or use WhixFrame's AI backgrounds for custom colors.
Does this work for both iPhone and Android screenshots?+
Yes, the size picker includes both the iPhone 6.7 inch requirement and the Google Play phone size, so one tool covers both stores.
Common Mistakes
Uploading a screenshot with system clutter
Low battery icons, notification banners, and the time reading 4:20am all undercut a polished-looking listing. Use a clean simulator capture or a demo mode before uploading.
Naming the feature instead of the benefit
"Settings Panel" tells the user nothing. "Control Every Notification" tells them what they get. Write the headline like an ad, not a menu label.
Low contrast text on a busy background
If the headline is hard to read at a glance, pick a darker or more solid background, or switch the text color toggle.
Exporting the wrong size for the target store
App Store Connect and Google Play reject off-size uploads. Confirm the exact dimension for your target device before you download.
Mixing background styles across the set
If screenshot 1 uses one gradient and screenshot 3 uses another with no relationship, the listing looks unplanned. Pick one style and reuse it across every screenshot.
