Loved by 2,000+ creators
Clean templates for product updates, release notes, and feature announcements.
A changelog screenshot is a polished visual that accompanies your product update or release notes. Instead of describing what changed in plain text, you show the actual feature with a clean screenshot in a device frame — making your update instantly understandable.
Plain text changelogs get ignored. Users skim past bullet points and never fully understand what's new. But when you add a visual showing the actual feature, engagement jumps dramatically. Users see the change, understand it immediately, and are more likely to try it.
Visual changelogs are also more shareable. A polished screenshot of a new feature gets retweeted and shared on LinkedIn. A bullet point in a text changelog does not. If you're shipping features worth building, they're worth showing.

Follow these tips to create changelog images that users actually notice and engage with.
Don’t just describe it — show it. Take a screenshot of the new feature in action and place it in a device frame. Users understand visuals faster than text.
Pick one device frame style and use it for all your changelog images. This creates a recognizable visual pattern that users associate with your product updates.
Add short text overlays pointing out what’s new. Keep captions to a few words — just enough to direct attention to the specific change or feature.
Use your brand colors or a consistent gradient background across all changelog images. This makes your updates feel cohesive and professionally produced.
Keep file sizes small for fast loading in email clients and web pages. Export as WebP for web, PNG for email. Aim for images under 200KB without sacrificing clarity.
Export from Screenhance and drop your images into any changelog platform.
Add polished product screenshots to your Notion changelog pages. Visual updates stand out in Notion’s clean layout and make your release notes more engaging for your team and users.

Visual changelogs get significantly more engagement than text-only updates. Images help users immediately understand what changed, reduce support tickets by showing features visually, and make your updates more shareable on social media. A screenshot is worth a thousand words in release notes.
For web-based changelogs, 1200×800 pixels works well as a standard size. For email changelogs, keep the width under 600px. For social media announcements, use platform-specific sizes (1200×675 for Twitter, 1200×1200 for LinkedIn). Screenhance templates support all these dimensions.
Yes. Screenhance supports text overlays that you can use as annotations and captions on your screenshots. Highlight the specific feature or change with brief, descriptive text to help users understand exactly what’s new.
Use PNG for screenshots with UI elements and text — it preserves sharp edges and text clarity. Use WebP for web-based changelogs to reduce file size. For email changelogs, PNG is the safest choice as it’s supported by all email clients.
Screenhance lets you create changelog images in under 2 minutes. Pick a template, upload your screenshot, and export. Save your preferred template settings to make future updates even faster — just swap the screenshot and export.
