Canva and App Store screenshots
App Store screenshots in Canva, or something built for it?
If your team already uses Canva, it's a fair place to start. Here's how to do it well, and the point where store sizes, repeats and translated screens make a dedicated tool worth it.

In short
You can make App Store screenshots in Canva: set a custom size, use a template, and translate text with its Pro Translate feature. It's a good fit if you already use Canva for everything else. It's a general design tool, so you handle store sizes, alpha, device detection and swapping screens each release. Appscreensii is built only for store screenshots, and does those for you, but it doesn't do the rest of your marketing.
- Canva is best for
- Teams already using it, one-off sets, all your other marketing
- A dedicated tool is best for
- Store sizes, translated screens, repeat releases
- Price
- Designing costs nothing. Exporting starts a 7-day free trial, then $12 a month, or $10 a month billed annually. See pricing

Questions
Good to know.
Does Canva have App Store screenshot templates?
Canva's template search returns results for app store screenshots. Check the size of any you pick, since App Store Connect only takes exact sizes.
Can Canva translate my screenshots?
Canva's Translate feature, on Pro, translates the text in your design. Text that's part of a pasted image, like your app's interface, is a different matter.
Does Appscreensii do social posts?
No, only store assets. If you need the rest of your marketing in one place, Canva is the better fit.
What does Appscreensii cost?
Designing costs nothing. Exporting starts a 7-day free trial, with a card, then it's $12 a month, or $10 a month billed annually. Cancel before the trial ends and you pay nothing. A project owner's plan covers the people they invite. See pricing.
