    An image (PNG, JPEG, WebP, HEIC, AVIF, or the first frame of a GIF) or a video (MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM, MKV, up to 5 minutes; the first 15 seconds are used).

    Transparent works with PNG, WebP, WebM, MOV, the website bundle and GIF (not JPEG or MP4).

    A hex colour, for example #1e293b or #f5f0e8.

    The short side in pixels: 1080p is 1920 × 1080 in 16:9. 4K (3840 px long side) is for pictures; GIFs are at most 480p.

    MP4 plays everywhere but can't be transparent. For a transparent video on a website, choose “Website: WebM + MOV”: WebM plays in Chrome, Edge and Firefox, the HEVC MOV in Safari, and you get the HTML to use both. GIFs are up to 10 seconds.

    Automatic: the length of your video (up to 15 seconds), or a length that suits the animation for a picture.

    Fill crops what doesn't fit (tall screenshots keep their top). Fit shows everything with black bars.

    Automatic turns the phone or tablet sideways for wide screenshots and videos.

    More options

    A soft studio reflection over the screen, as in product photos. Choose None to keep the screenshot's colours untouched.

    GIFs always use 20 fps.

    GIF transparency is all-or-nothing per pixel, so transparent GIFs leave out the soft shadow and blend the device's edges into this colour. Use your page's background colour for clean edges.

    Your files are deleted after processing.

    This page makes a transparent mockup of an app screenshot: a 3D phone (or tablet) with your screen on it, saved as a PNG with a transparent background. The soft shadow under the device is kept as a semi-transparent layer, so it looks right on white, coloured and dark page sections alike.

    How to make a transparent app mockup

    1. Upload the screenshot at its original size, straight from the phone or exported from your design tool.
    2. Keep Background on Transparent and Save as on PNG, or choose WebP for a smaller file that also keeps transparency. JPEG can't be transparent.
    3. Choose the device, its colour and the camera angle. Tilted hero and three-quarter angles give depth; Front suits side-by-side feature sections.
    4. Download the picture and place it on your page. The phone's edges are antialiased against transparency, so they stay smooth on any background colour.

    Tips for app pages

    • Make one mockup per screen with the same device, colour and angle so a row of screenshots looks consistent. The framing is the same every time for the same settings.
    • For an app store style banner, use the 9:16 or 4:5 format and add your own text around the device in your design tool.
    • Tablet screenshots work the same way; wide screenshots turn the tablet to landscape.

    Pitfalls

    • A screenshot with a different shape from the phone's screen is cropped to fill it (tall ones keep their top). Choose Fit inside to keep everything with black bars.
    • Very small screenshots (a few hundred pixels wide) look soft on a large mockup. Use the original screenshot rather than a thumbnail.
