The short version

AppScreens is an editor: you design one layout and it adapts it to iPhone, iPad and Android sizes, translates it into 80+ locales and uploads it to the stores. It has added AI caption suggestions and an AI restyle option.

Nuvex is a designer: you upload your screens, describe the app, and the AI plans and paints the whole set, headlines included. Pick AppScreens for a big, multi-platform, many-language pipeline you control; pick Nuvex when you want the design itself done for you.

Choose Nuvex if
  • You want the design decided for you, not a blank canvas
  • Nobody on the team is a designer
  • You mainly need a strong iPhone set, fast
  • You want headlines written for each frame
Choose AppScreens if
  • You need iPhone, iPad and Android sets from one design
  • You localise into dozens of languages and upload directly
  • You want to place every element yourself
  • You manage many apps or client work

What AppScreens is

AppScreens is a browser-based screenshot tool built around one responsive design that is exported to every iOS and Android size. Its pricing page (checked October 2026) lists:

  • Free: one saved project, up to 5 screens, the essential iOS and Android sizes; Pro features show with watermarks.
  • Pro: $99 a year ($8.25 a month), 50 projects, 10 apps, 80+ locales, AI caption tools and “Restyle with AI”.
  • Scale: $180 a year ($15 a month), unlimited apps, up to 25 screens per project and an extended licence for client work.

Paid plans add localisation and direct uploads to the stores. You still decide the layout, the frames and the words; the AI helps with captions and restyling.

Making a set in each

In AppScreens you pick or build a layout, drop your screens into device frames, write and position your captions (or accept AI suggestions), set colours and fonts, then let it adapt the design to each size and language. The result is exactly what you laid out.

In Nuvex you upload your screens and a sentence about the app. The AI plans five frames with a job each, writes a two-line headline for each, chooses a colour world and layout, and paints the set. You change what you dislike by typing (“bigger phone on frame two”), one frame at a time.

The difference is who makes the design decisions. In AppScreens, you. In Nuvex, the AI, with you as the editor.

When AppScreens is the better choice

Honestly, in these cases:

You ship on iOS and Android

One responsive design to every Apple and Google size saves real time. Nuvex exports iPhone frames only.

You localise heavily

80+ locales and direct store upload make AppScreens a strong localisation pipeline.

You have a designer

If someone on the team enjoys layout, an editor gives exact control.

You handle client apps

The Scale plan’s licence covers client work across many apps.

Questions

Is AppScreens an AI screenshot generator?

Not in the same sense. It is an editor with AI helpers (caption suggestions and an AI restyle). You still build the layout. Nuvex generates the whole set from your screens.

Which is cheaper, Nuvex or AppScreens?

For one app and one set, Nuvex usually costs less: a $5 pack covers a five-frame Low-quality set with credits to spare. For many apps, sizes and languages over a year, AppScreens’ annual plans can be better value.

Can I use both?

Yes. Some teams generate a design direction in Nuvex, then rebuild it as a responsive layout for every platform in an editor.
