How it works
How to use the device mockup generator
- 01
Add a screenshot
Drop an image, browse for one, or paste straight from the clipboard with ⌘V or Ctrl+V. A sample screen shows until you do.
- 02
Pick a frame
iPhone, Android, iPad, MacBook, or a light Safari-style or dark Chrome-style browser window with your own URL in the address bar.
- 03
Set the scene
Choose the frame colour, a gradient, solid or transparent background, padding, a soft shadow and a slight rotation.
- 04
Download
Export a PNG at 1x, 2x or 3x. The download is drawn by the same renderer as the preview, so it matches pixel for pixel.
Why put a screenshot in a frame
A raw screenshot floating on a page reads as a picture of a screen. Put the same image inside a phone or browser and it reads as a product someone uses. The frame gives scale, tells visitors which platform you are on, and adds the depth that makes a hero section or a case study feel finished. It is the cheapest design upgrade a landing page can get.
Start with a good screenshot
The frame cannot rescue a messy capture. Before you export, I always:
- Capture at native resolution. Phone screenshots are already full resolution (an iPhone 17 Pro saves 1206 × 2622). For web apps, set the browser to the width you designed for and capture at 2x so text stays sharp.
- Use realistic, flattering data.Real-looking names, round-but-believable numbers, no “Lorem ipsum”, no test accounts, no personal emails.
- Tidy the chrome. A full battery, strong signal and a clean status bar. Apple has shown 9:41 on product shots for years, and it has become a convention.
- Pick one moment.Show the screen that proves the product's main promise, not the settings page.
Which frame for which job
| Job | Frame | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile app landing page | iPhone or Android | Match the platform you launch on first; show both only if you ship both. |
| SaaS hero image | Browser (light) | Put your real domain in the address bar. It builds trust and costs nothing. |
| Developer or dark-mode product | Browser (dark) | Use a dark capture too, or the window looks like a mistake. |
| Case study or portfolio | MacBook or iPad | A slight rotation (3–6°) and a soft shadow add depth without gimmickry. |
| Slides and documents | Any, transparent background | Transparent PNGs drop onto any slide colour. |
Mockups versus App Store screenshots
Store listings have their own rules. App Store Connect accepts screenshots only at exact pixel sizes — 1320 × 2868 for the 6.9-inch iPhone set, for example — and Google Play limits screenshots to a 2:1 ratio. Store screenshots usually work best as the raw screen plus a short headline above it. Framed mockups like the ones this tool makes belong on your own website, in pitch decks, launch posts, Product Hunt galleries and case studies. If you also need social crops, run the exported PNG through the social image size resizer.
Making it look premium
- Pull the background from your brand, but quieter: a pale tint or a two-stop gradient of your accent colour beats a loud rainbow.
- Leave room. 10–20% padding keeps the device from touching the edges when a platform crops your image.
- Keep shadows soft and low.A big, diffuse shadow says “object on a desk”; a hard dark one says 2009.
- Be consistent. Use the same frame, angle and background across every image on a page.
Export size and performance
For a website, export at 2x the size the image will be displayed, then convert the PNG to WebP or AVIF before publishing; a framed screenshot often drops to a fraction of its PNG size with no visible difference. Use 3x for print and very large slides. Transparent PNGs are heavy by nature, so only keep the transparency when the image really sits on different backgrounds.
Common mistakes
- Stretching a screenshot of the wrong shape into a frame instead of cropping or fitting it.
- A tiny 1x screenshot in a big frame — the text turns to blur at 2x.
- Mixing devices, angles and shadow styles on one page.
- Showing a desktop layout inside a phone frame. Capture the real mobile view.
