Sizes the tool exports
These come from Apple's screenshot specifications and Google Play's asset guidelines, checked November 6, 2026. All sizes are width x height in pixels, shown in portrait. Landscape swaps them, except the Play feature graphic.
| Size | Store and device |
|---|---|
| 1320 x 2868 | Apple: iPhone with Dynamic Island, large display |
| 1290 x 2796 | Apple: iPhone with Dynamic Island, large display |
| 1260 x 2736 | Apple: iPhone with Dynamic Island, large display |
| 1206 x 2622 | Apple: iPhone with Dynamic Island, medium display |
| 1179 x 2556 | Apple: iPhone with Dynamic Island, medium display |
| 1284 x 2778 | Apple: iPhone with Face ID, large display |
| 1242 x 2688 | Apple: iPhone with Face ID, large display |
| 2064 x 2752 | Apple: iPad 13-inch display |
| 2048 x 2732 | Apple: iPad 13-inch display |
| 1080 x 1920 | Google Play: phone screenshot, the minimum Google recommends |
| 1024 x 500 | Google Play: feature graphic |
Apple needs at least one iPhone size from the Dynamic Island medium group (1179 x 2556 or 1206 x 2622), and the 13-inch iPad size if your app runs on iPad. Google gives a range instead of one size: 320 to 3840 pixels a side, with the long side at most twice the short side. We list 1080 x 1920 because it is the minimum Google recommends. Both stores ban transparency, so every download is a JPG.
How to make a set of screenshots
- Take the screenshot on a real phone or in the simulator. Hide anything private.
- Tap Upload a screenshot, or Try a sample screenshot to see how it works.
- Pick the Store size you need. The preview changes to that exact shape.
- Choose a background. Use the same one on every screenshot in the set.
- Tap Download. Repeat for each screen, then upload the files in App Store Connect or Play Console.
Caption tips
Type a caption in the tool above. It sits above the screenshot.
- Say what the screen does, in under 8 words. “Split a bill in seconds” beats “Powerful features”.
- One idea per screenshot. Put the strongest one first.
- The caption is white, so pick a darker gradient such as Midnight, and check it at thumbnail size.
- Keep the caption length similar across the set so the layout matches.

Frequently asked questions
What sizes does the App Store require?
Apple needs at least one screenshot in an iPhone size from the Dynamic Island, medium display group: 1179 x 2556 or 1206 x 2622 pixels. If your app runs on iPad, you also need the 13-inch size: 2064 x 2752 or 2048 x 2732. If you skip the large Dynamic Island sizes, you need a Face ID large size too: 1284 x 2778 or 1242 x 2688. Every size also works in landscape. The tool above has all of them. Apple changes this list, so check its page before you upload.
How many screenshots can I upload?
Apple takes 1 to 10 screenshots per device size. Google Play takes up to 8 per device type, and needs at least 2 screenshots across device types to publish. Shotcraft makes one image at a time, so pick one background and padding and reuse them to keep a set matching.
Can I add device frames?
No. Shotcraft has no iPhone, iPad or Android frames. It puts your screenshot on a gradient with padding, a shadow and an optional caption. If you want a phone body around it, this is the wrong tool today.
Is the export high enough resolution?
The file is exactly the pixel size you pick, so there is nothing to scale. It downloads as a JPG at high quality, with no transparency, which both stores require. If your own screenshot is smaller than the size you pick, it is enlarged to fit and can look soft. Start from a screenshot taken on a phone of the same class.
Is it free? What does the watermark do?
Free needs no account. You get the exact store size with a small "Made with shotcraft.cloud" mark in the corner. Pro ($12.00/mo) and Lifetime ($200.00 one time) download the same size with no mark. For a real store listing you want the clean one.
Do I keep the rights to my images?
Yes. The terms say you keep all rights to the screenshots and images you process. Your screenshot is read and drawn in your browser and is not uploaded to Shotcraft's servers.
