Keep app-store screenshots aligned with the shipped app

Put it into practice

1. Compare captures with the release candidate.
2. Update removed controls and old branding.
3. Ask the release owner to review the final sequence.

What this looks like

A detail to keep clear

A visually attractive concept should not be presented as a feature already available in the app.

Using MockupX

Store specifications are maintained by Apple and Google and can change. Check the relevant console's current requirements for the device family and asset type. MockupX creates images; it does not submit listings, validate every policy or guarantee approval.

Check the result

Keep the original screenshot, then review the exported file at the size where people will see it. Check the message, the visible interface and the final crop separately. For a handoff, record the destination and the approved file so another person can distinguish the final version from a draft.

References and further reading

Use the official references for format behavior and current destination requirements. The composition advice above is a practical design approach, not a promise of platform approval.
