Most App Store screenshot tools target agencies first and indies second. The pricing tells you: $25–50 per month, "Team" tiers, "enterprise" implied. Indies use them anyway because the alternatives are worse. We started building Screenshotify because the indie price point should be different — you ship once or twice a year, you don't need an annual seat.
Build your app. The day you're ready to submit, open Screenshotify. Drop your phone screenshots into the editor (or pair the phone). Pick 3–5 panels for the App Store carousel, add one caption per panel, pick a template if you want a head start. Translate to whatever locales you ship in (we support all 39). Click export — one ZIP with every required size and every locale.
For a typical indie iPhone app: about 20 minutes from "blank canvas" to "ZIP downloaded". The Pro subscription is monthly so you can cancel after submitting if you don't ship again for a while. Resubscribe when the next update needs new screenshots.
If you want screenshots straight from your running app via UI tests, Fastlane snapshot is a great free option. The trade-off: you're writing Swift, maintaining a Snapfile, and the output is raw simulator screenshots without marketing overlays. Screenshotify is for the moment you want designed marketing screenshots, not raw simulator captures.
