App Preview Video Maker: Your Screenshots in a Phone Frame
This app preview video maker turns two to five of your app screenshots into an app store style video, where each screen slides through a phone frame with its own caption. AI writes the app name line, captions and call to action for free, and you render an MP4 in 9:16, 16:9 or 1:1.

An App Preview Video Maker in the App Store Style
Store listings, launch posts and ads all ask the same question: what does the app look like in use? This template answers it with your real screens. The video opens on a 2.5-second intro with your app name and an optional tagline, and the first screenshot is already in the phone, so the product is on screen from the first frame. Then each screenshot slides through the phone frame and holds for 3 seconds with its caption, and a 3-second outro ends on the last screen with your call to action. Two screenshots make an 11.5-second video, three make 14.5 seconds, four make 17.5 seconds and five make 20.5 seconds. Pick a dark or light theme and one accent color for the whole video, so it matches your brand.
Screenshots in Upload Order
Every screen needs an image, so the app preview video maker asks for two to five screenshots. JPG, PNG and WebP files up to 10 MB work, and each one is cover-cropped to fill the phone screen, so tall portrait screenshots fit best. The number of images you add sets the number of screens, and the order you add them is the order they play: the first image becomes screen one, the second becomes screen two, and so on. Put your strongest screen first, because it is the one viewers see during the intro. Use real screenshots of your own app, not mockups of features that do not exist yet. For a short list of new features, the product update video template is a better fit.
Captions That Say What Users Gain
Each screenshot gets one caption of up to 40 characters, and the app name holds up to 24, the tagline up to 48 and the call to action up to 24. In the 9:16 frame the caption sits above the phone, and in the 16:9 and 1:1 frames it sits beside it, so the screenshot always stays clear of the text. Describe your app in the brief and Write with AI writes the app name line, an optional tagline, one caption per screen in the same order as your images, and a short call to action such as Download free, all for free within a daily limit. Each caption says what the user does or gains on that screen, in four to eight words. Write about the benefit, not the button the user taps.
No Invented Ratings, Free Frame Check
The app preview video maker is instructed never to invent ratings, rankings or download numbers, so the video only claims what your app really does. If you have a real award or rating you want to mention, type it yourself and keep it accurate. A free AI frame check then renders four to five stills across the video and shortens any caption or tagline that would overflow. It may rewrite words, but it never changes your screenshots, colors, theme or the number of screens. Because the animation is a pure function of time, the preview stills match the final MP4 frame for frame. You can edit every field before you render, and the frame check runs again for free after any edit.
How to Make an App Preview Video in 3 Steps
- 1
Pick a frame and add your screenshots
Choose 9:16 for stories and short video, 16:9 for websites and YouTube, or 1:1 for feeds. Add two to five screenshots in the order they should play. You can switch frames later without losing the captions. Sign in first, because writing with AI and rendering both need a free account.

Write the captions in the app preview video maker
Describe your app and what each screen shows, then press Write with AI. The app preview video maker writes one caption per screenshot for free, and the frame check previews the stills to confirm every line fits. Prefer to write them yourself? Type each caption directly. Browse the other AI video templates for more launch formats.

Render the app preview video
Pick a theme and accent color, edit any caption, and render the MP4 for about 10 credits with up to four screenshots. The finished MP4 stays in your history, ready to download again when you update the screens. Download the file and add music in any editor before you post.
What Can You Make with an App Preview Video Maker?
App Launch Posts
Announce a new app or a big release with a short vertical video that shows the real screens. A launch post with the product on screen tells viewers more than a logo ever can. The app preview video maker keeps the same layout for every release, so your launches look consistent. End with a call to action such as Try it free.
Store and Website Previews
Use the 16:9 frame on your landing page or in a slide deck, and the 9:16 frame where a vertical preview fits. Check the current requirements of each store before you upload, because stores set their own rules for preview videos. Keep the captions short so they read on a small screen.
Social Ads for Your App
Run the square or vertical frame as a social ad that shows the app at work. Pair it with a product promo video for the offer, or make a longer ad with the AI video ad generator. Lead with the screen that shows the main benefit.
Onboarding and Feature Tours
Walk new users through the first three screens they will see, one caption per step. The same video works in a welcome email, a help center article or a product tour. Order the screenshots the way users move through the app. Update the screenshots whenever the design changes.
