For new features, improvements, integrations, workflow changes, and capability expansions communicated across owned channels.
Feature announcement graphics that show what changed and why it matters.
Pair a concise benefit with the product state that proves the change. Keep the visual focused enough for a social or email card while preserving the detail needed for release notes and launch pages.

QUICK ANSWER
Start with the job, then choose the frame.
A feature announcement needs three things: the user problem, the changed product moment, and the outcome. Show one relevant screen or comparison, keep supporting copy outside the UI, and adapt detail level to the channel.
Browse product marketing workflows →Use this workflow when the interface itself can demonstrate the release more credibly than abstract campaign artwork alone.
Choose the state that proves the release
A settings panel may prove control; a completed output may prove value. Use the screen that answers the user’s likely ‘what can I do now?’ question.
Use before-and-after only when it clarifies
Comparison works for simplification, redesign, or changed results. Do not force a before state into the graphic when the old experience adds clutter or requires too much explanation.
Scale detail by communication channel
A changelog can carry annotations and sequence; a social card needs one focal point; email sits between them. Reuse source material while adjusting the amount of explanation.
Turn a shipped feature into a clear announcement
Anchor the message in what a user can now accomplish.
- Write the user outcome and identify the exact product state that demonstrates it.
- Capture a clean, realistic screen after the feature is ready to show.
- Compose one master image with a concise external headline and optional focused annotation.
- Create channel variants, then verify that every claim matches the released product behavior.
feature announcement graphics FAQ
What should a feature announcement image include?
Include the most relevant product state, a concise benefit, and only the context needed to understand the change.
Should I show a before-and-after comparison?
Use it when the contrast directly explains the improvement. A single after-state is clearer when the old version needs too much context.
Can one announcement graphic work in email and social?
Reuse the visual system and source screen, but adapt crop, text density, and scale for each destination.
