Screenshots for the app store? I needed something simple.
When I put up my first app for review on the app store I needed something to help me create screenshots and looked everywhere.
As with a lot of us here I thought "this isn't quite what I envisaged" or "that's nice, but I have no money" :)
I found a nice little web based tool - AppScreen by YuzuHub (YUZU-Hub/appscreen) that seemed to be the closest. It hadn't been updated for a while but luckily the licensing for it allowed me to tweak it to my liking so I've been playing around with it to get it just the way I like it.
Now, all the changes I've made have been focussed on iPhone screenshots and there has been no testing for other devices (and in fact I might remove them in the future) so YMMV
edit: all data is kept in your local broswer - but can be exported/imported
Since forking, we’ve added:
- Device continuation - let a 3D phone bleed off one slide and flow seamlessly onto the next, so a pair of screenshots reads as one continuous scene. Pick which device sits in front or behind, and dial in an “App Store gutter” so the halves line up perfectly in the real store.
- Combine export - stitch all, or a selection of slides into one wide image for websites, social, etc.
- Smarter exports - choose where files save, named after your project automatically.
- Under the hood - a unified render pipeline, fixed 3D artifacts, big performance gains, and a fully web-only build (no Docker, no desktop deps) that runs entirely in your browser.
I know that Claude/ChatGPT etc are getting way better at generating this stuff but as I said, simple and controllable but does what I need and others may find it useful.
