Mac App Store screenshots

Mac screenshots, at the four sizes Apple takes.

Drop in a capture of your app's window. It sits on your design at 16:10, keeps its shadow if the capture has one, and exports at any of Apple's four sizes.

A finished Mac App Store screenshot of a notes app in a window.

In short

Mac App Store screenshots must be 16:10, at 1280 × 800, 1440 × 900, 2560 × 1600 or 2880 × 1800. Appscreensii makes them from captures of your app's window, placed on a designed background with a title bar or unified toolbar frame if it needs one. The Mac set shares captions and a template with your iPhone and iPad sets. It uses window frames rather than a picture of a MacBook.

What you get

Designed for windows.

Window captures

Transparent window captures work: the window keeps its own shadow, with nothing black behind it.

Window frames

No frame in your capture? Add a Mac window with a title bar or a unified toolbar.

Same project

Keep Mac with iPhone and iPad, so captions and the template stay in step.

The right shape

Other shapes get flagged. Everything exports at exactly 16:10.

Example

A notes app, at 2880 × 1800.

Questions

Good to know.

What sizes are Mac App Store screenshots?

One of 1280 × 800, 1440 × 900, 2560 × 1600 or 2880 × 1800, all 16:10. Apple's limit of up to 10 screenshots applies here too.

Is there a MacBook mockup?

No. The Mac set shows your app's window on a design rather than a picture of a laptop.

How do I capture a window with its shadow?

On a Mac, press Shift-Command-4, then Space, then click the window. The saved PNG includes a transparent shadow, and Appscreensii keeps it.

Do I need an account?

You need an account, and the editor is made for a computer, in a current desktop browser. There's nothing to install.

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.
