App Store screenshot templates by app category

What converts on the App Store is clarity: the first one to three screenshots should show your app doing its main job, because Apple can show those images in search results when there is no app preview. Start with the category closest to your app. Each one has editable screenshot sets whose sample screens and captions already tell that kind of app's story, so you replace them with yours instead of starting from a blank canvas.

  • Open with the outcome.

    Put the screen that answers what the app does for someone first, with a caption of a few words that names the benefit.

  • Show the app in use.

    Apple's App Review Guidelines (2.3.3) ask for screenshots of the app in use, not only title art, a login page or a splash screen.

  • Give each screenshot one idea.

    Apple recommends focusing each screenshot after the first on one main benefit or feature. Test alternatives with product page optimization when you have the traffic.

Templates that suit any app

Another 36 App Store templates are led by style rather than a category story: bold type, soft gradients, dark interfaces, 3D devices and testimonial layouts. Browse them all in the App and Play Store template gallery, or start from the App Store screenshot generator to localize captions and prepare iPhone and iPad versions from one design.

Before you upload, check the accepted pixel sizes in the App Store screenshot sizes guide for 2026. Shipping on Android as well? The Play Store templates cover phone and tablet listings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose an App Store screenshot template?

Start with the category closest to your app, then pick the set whose layout suits your interface: full device shots for interface-heavy apps, photo-led layouts for lifestyle products, and large captions when one benefit per screen matters most. Colors, fonts, frames and copy are all editable after you open it.

Can I use a template from a different category?

Yes. Categories describe the sample story, not a restriction. Every template opens in the same App Store editor, so a travel layout can carry a finance app if its structure suits your screens.

Are these App Store screenshot templates free to use?

Yes. You can open and edit every template for free. The free plan includes 3 watermarked PNG exports at 1× each month, one size at a time. The $6 Launch Pass adds 10 clean static exports over 7 days with multi-size and multi-locale export, and Pro costs $12 per month or $99 per year for unlimited clean exports.

Which App Store screenshot sizes can I export?

Each template opens on an iPhone canvas in the App Store editor. Choose an Apple preset such as the required medium Dynamic Island size (1206 × 2622) or the large 1320 × 2868 size, and add a 13-inch iPad set if your app supports iPadOS. Apple updates its accepted sizes, so check the current list before you upload.

Do you have Google Play screenshot templates too?

Yes. The Play Store template gallery has Android phone and tablet sets, and most App Store templates can also open in the editor's Android mode.
