The short version

AppScreen Studio (by Momentarium) is a Mac editor: templates or a blank canvas, automatic framing in Apple devices, one design kept in sync across sizes, batch translation and direct upload to App Store Connect. You do the layout.

Nuvex designs the layout, colours and headlines with AI. Choose AppScreen Studio for a cheap, precise Apple-only editor; choose Nuvex to have the design decided for you.

Choose Nuvex if
  • You want the set designed, not laid out
  • You don’t use a Mac, or don’t want an app
  • You want headlines written for each frame
  • You want a finished look in minutes
Choose AppScreen Studio if
  • You are on a Mac and like exact control
  • You need iPad, Mac, Watch and Vision Pro frames
  • You want direct upload to App Store Connect
  • You want a very low lifetime price

Making a set in each

In AppScreen Studio you start a project, choose a template or canvas, drop in screens, write the text, translate it and upload. It is quick for someone who already knows what the set should look like.

In Nuvex you describe the app and upload screens; the AI decides what each frame says and how it looks, and you edit by asking.

When AppScreen Studio is the better choice

Honestly, in these cases:

You want the cheapest editor

A $24.49 lifetime purchase is hard to beat if you are happy designing.

You publish on every Apple platform

iPad, Mac, Watch and Vision Pro frames, kept in sync.

You upload often

Direct upload to App Store Connect saves steps every release.
