Update your app screenshots without starting again

Replace a shared asset or recapture a screen, then regenerate every affected output from the same source project.

The job to be done

Keep the screenshots current when your app changes

A navigation change, a redesigned screen or a new feature can make yesterday’s listing images feel out of date. Recreating the surrounding artwork each time turns a small interface update into another design project.

Screen Studio Kit keeps the app capture separate from its headline, frame and background. Replace the source capture, review the affected composition and retain the visual choices that still work.

Use the existing project to check the message as well as the interface. A new feature may need a new headline or a different opening screenshot. Campaign variants let you explore that direction while keeping the alternatives in the project.

Recommended path

Refresh the content and keep the useful design work

Review the affected pages after replacing a capture.

  1. Import the updated capture

    Bring the new app screen into the existing project.

  2. Replace the old image

    Keep the frame, background and copy that still suit the new interface.

  3. Review the affected layouts

    Check visible details, headline fit and the intended output sizes.

  4. Export the refreshed set

    Produce the selected images, or use Pro to regenerate the selected sizes and languages together.

Direct answers

Questions about this use case.

Will I need to recreate the device frame?

The frame is an editable layer in the project. You can replace the capture and keep working with the existing frame and composition.

Can I compare a different marketing direction?

Yes. Campaign variants keep alternative treatments in the project so you can compare their first frames and choose the active version.

Make it with your app

Create your next screenshot set.

Bring an app capture, write the headline and shape the composition around it. Keep the design editable for the next release.
