Screenhance is a mockup generator and App Store screenshot tool with animated GIF and WebM exports, App Store and Google Play screenshot sets, and a one-time $6 Week Pass for launches.
AppMockup is an AI-first App Store screenshot generator that auto-writes titles and backgrounds. Fast for a first draft; lighter on control, newer-device coverage, language count, and animation.

Honest about the tradeoffs. AppMockup wins on these things.
AppMockup's strength is speed-to-first-draft: it reads your app, writes candidate titles and backgrounds, and places your screenshots automatically. If you want a complete set generated in under two minutes with minimal input, the AI-first approach is genuinely fast.
Paste an App Store or Play link and AppMockup will replicate that listing's visual style. It's a clever shortcut if you've found a competitor whose screenshots you want to echo.
AppMockup's credit packs (e.g. ~$9 for 25 screenshots) are one-time and don't expire, which suits someone who generates screenshots rarely and dislikes subscriptions.
The reasons people switch from AppMockup to Screenhance.
AI generation is fast but gives you less say over the result. Screenhance is a full drag-and-drop editor: every element — device, headline, background, layout, asset — is yours to place and tune. When the AI's guess isn't quite right, you're not stuck regenerating; you just edit.
AppMockup tops out around iPhone 16 Pro Max. Screenhance ships iPhone 17, iPhone Air, Pixel 9 Pro, and Apple Watch Series 11 — so a 2026 listing looks like the device users actually hold.
Screenhance localizes a screenshot set across 80+ languages from one master. AppMockup covers 20+. For a launch targeting many markets, the wider language range matters.
Screenhance exports animated GIF and WebM. AppMockup is static only. Animation lifts conversion on Product Hunt galleries, landing-page heroes, and social.
AppMockup's credit model charges per screenshot (~$9 / 25). A localized set across languages and sizes burns through credits quickly. Screenhance is flat — $8/month or a $6 Week Pass — with unlimited exports on paid plans.
Screenhance also makes device mockups, Product Hunt gallery images, and OG cards in the same editor. AppMockup is store-screenshots-only.

Two capabilities that separate Screenhance from every other mockup tool in 2026: animated exports and App Store screenshot localization.
Template-driven motion — float, reveal, parallax. Export animated mockups at Product Hunt, landing-page, and Twitter/X dimensions. Most mockup tools are static-only.
One master design, per-locale captions, every required Apple and Google Play size per language. RTL and CJK support. Apple reports localized listings drive 2-3x install lifts.
iPhone 17 Pro Max (1320×2868), iPhone Air (1260×2736), iPad Pro M4 (2064×2752), and the full Google Play set — exported from one design in a single pass.
Pick a template, drop in your screenshot, export. No Figma, no Photoshop, no learning curve. Free tier covers 3 exports a month; $6 Week Pass unlocks unlimited for a launch.
Yes, especially if you want control rather than full automation. AppMockup auto-generates a set with AI; Screenhance is a full drag-and-drop editor where you place and tune every element. Screenhance also has newer device frames (iPhone 17/Air vs iPhone 16), 80+ languages vs 20+, animated exports, and flat unlimited pricing instead of per-screenshot credits.
Screenhance is editor-first: you control the design directly rather than having AI generate it. AppMockup's differentiator is AI auto-generation (titles, backgrounds, 'Match Style' from a store link). If AI doing the first draft is the priority, AppMockup leans into that; if control over the result matters more, Screenhance's editor is the better fit.
Screenhance. AppMockup tops out around iPhone 16 Pro Max; Screenhance ships iPhone 17, iPhone Air, Pixel 9 Pro, and Apple Watch Series 11, so a current-year listing looks current.
AppMockup is credit-based — around $9 for 25 screenshots, credits don't expire. Screenhance is free to start, then $6 one-time (Week Pass) or $8/month flat with unlimited exports. For a localized set across many languages and sizes, the flat plan is usually cheaper than buying credits per screenshot.
Screenhance localizes into 80+ languages from one master design; AppMockup covers 20+. For multi-market launches, the wider range reduces manual work.
No — AppMockup is static only. Screenhance exports animated GIF and WebM in addition to static formats.

The honest split between these tools is philosophical. AppMockup bets that the bottleneck in App Store screenshots is the blank canvas — so it removes it, reading your app and generating titles, backgrounds, and layouts in one pass. For a developer who freezes at “what should slide one even say,” that first draft is genuinely valuable, and the ‘Match Style’ trick of pointing at a competitor's listing is a smart way to borrow a proven direction.
Screenhance bets the opposite: that the bottleneck is control, not the first draft. App Store screenshots are high-stakes — they're the storefront — and most teams have specific ideas about wording, brand color, and which feature leads. An AI guess gets you 70% there, but the last 30% (move that headline up, swap this background, make the device an iPhone 17 not a 16) is where a generated set either becomes yours or stays generic. In a generation-first tool, that last 30% means re-rolling and hoping; in an editor, it's just dragging things where you want them. Screenhance is built for people who'd rather start from a strong template and control the result than accept an AI's full composition.
The practical tiebreakers favor the editor for serious launches: newer device frames (iPhone 17 and Air, not capped at 16), 80+ languages instead of 20+, animated exports for the surfaces that reward motion, and flat pricing instead of per-screenshot credits that a localized set burns through fast. AppMockup is the better choice when speed-to-draft is everything and the app is simple; Screenhance is the better choice when the listing matters enough to get exactly right and you're shipping in more than one language.
