Create beautiful App Store and Play Store screenshots with templates, real device frames, and powerful editing tools. You get 3 free downloads every month, and if you need more, there’s a simple credit-based plan starting at just $1. And unlike those tools that suddenly hit you with a $25/month subscription the moment you’re ready to download… we don’t do that. Pay only when you actually need it.
Have you ever spent almost an hour perfecting something… only to hit a giant subscription paywall right when you’re about to download it?
Yeah. That happened to me 😅
I don’t hate subscriptions. I pay for a lot of them. But subscriptions make sense for things you use regularly… like a music app. Not an app store screenshot tool. At least not unless you’re an agency or shipping multiple apps every month.
Some time back, I finished building my mobile app and the only thing left before launch was App Store screenshots.
(let’s pretend we live in a world where the Apple review loop doesn’t exist 😄)
I’m not a designer, so I picked a template from a popular tool, tweaked the copy, added my app colors, adjusted spacing, polished everything… and honestly, it looked perfect.
Then I clicked Download.
Boom.
$29/month subscription.
I get it. Tools need to make money. But I probably wouldn’t use it again for months, so committing to a recurring subscription didn’t feel right.
But I would’ve happily paid a small one-time amount to download what I’d just spent half an hour crafting.
That’s when it hit me:
Not every tool needs to force a subscription.
For a lot of indie devs, a credit-based “pay when you need it” model makes way more sense.
So… I built LaunchShots 🎉
- Free to use
- 3 exports per month
- If you need more, buy one-time credits starting from $1
- And if you’re a heavy user, there’s also a subscription option
Choice instead of pressure.
It’s still new. It won’t be perfect yet. But I’m improving it every day and I’m really happy with where it is right now.
I’d love to hear your thoughts:
- Have you ever been hit by a “paywall at the last step” moment?
- Do you prefer subscriptions or credits for tools like this?
- What would make LaunchShots more useful for you?
Happy to answer anything, and thanks for being here ❤️
This feels practical. Easy to use, no unnecessary complexity, and the output looks good enough for a real launch. Would be nice to see more layout flexibility over time, but overall a useful tool.
I think it's a great tool for UI designers. As a copywriter, I think I can use it too to check out how the text would look in design.
This happened to me too, before a launch, worked on screenshots and then got blocked by a subscription. Super frustrating. This tool would’ve saved me a lot of time. How fast can someone make ready screenshots with LaunchShots?
Congrats on the launch! Been hit by such expensive paywalls at the final moment multiple times, so I definitely feel you! I personally like credit over subscription. Launch Shots will certainly help my own launch in the future.
Very cool this is definitely something that can be used all the time.
I’m gonna check this one out,
Good luck on your lunch
Yeah! It’s super cool and easy to use. It’s also key to save time at the launch. Glad to see you helping on this. All the best!!
Hi Ajay, saw your Product Hunt launch for Launch shots—congrats!
I work with startups as a remote React / Full-Stack developer.
Would love to connect.
Curious—how are you handling frontend performance or mobile support as usage grows?
