The short version

Launch Shots is a web tool for App Store and Play Store screenshots built on templates and real device frames, with a low, credit-based price. Recent listings describe AI-written headlines and direct publishing too; check its site for the current feature set.

Nuvex has no templates: the AI plans and paints the whole set for your app. Choose Launch Shots if you like starting from a polished template; choose Nuvex if you want an original set designed for your app.

Choose Nuvex if
  • You want an original design, not a template
  • You want the AI to plan the whole set
  • You want plain-word edits per frame
  • You only need iPhone frames
Choose Launch Shots if
  • You like starting from a polished template
  • You need Play Store assets as well
  • You want real device frames you control
  • You make a few downloads a month

What Launch Shots is

Launch Shots is a web-based tool for App Store and Play Store screenshots using templates and real device frames. Directory listings from 2026 describe a free allowance of downloads each month and credit-based pricing from about $1, and newer listings describe AI-generated screenshot sets with written headlines and direct publishing to the stores.

Because the listings disagree, check Launch Shots’ own site for the current features and prices before deciding.

Making a set in each

In Launch Shots you start from a template, put your screens in device frames, set the text and export for each store.

In Nuvex there is no template step: the AI reads your screens, plans five frames with a job each, writes the headlines and paints the set. You edit by asking.

When Launch Shots is the better choice

Honestly, in these cases:

You need both stores

Play Store output alongside the App Store; Nuvex exports iPhone frames.

You like templates

A polished starting point you can adjust quickly.

You download rarely

A small free monthly allowance suits occasional use.

Questions

Is Launch Shots AI?

Older listings describe a template tool; newer ones describe AI-written headlines and sets. Nuvex has always designed the whole set with AI, without templates.

Which is better for indie developers?

Can I try both for free?

Yes. Nuvex gives 6 free credits, enough for three frames; Launch Shots lists free monthly downloads.
