The short version
AppMockUp (Bucharest-based, active since 2019) is a feature-rich template marketplace. The editor itself is free to use, but the polished, ready-to-ship templates that are AppMockUp's main draw cost $8 to $199 each. So while there's no subscription, there's also no free path to a finished-looking design — you either start blank in the (fairly complex) editor or pay per template.
ezscreenshots goes the other direction: no template marketplace, but a simple, opinionated editor with full creative control. It runs entirely in your browser — your screenshots never leave your device. The free tier gives you 3 full-resolution exports per month with no watermark and full commercial use, and Pro unlocks unlimited exports plus AI translation to 30+ App Store locales for $39/year flat. Pro also includes live-draggable 3D perspective, zoom callouts, custom .ttf font upload, and multi-screen ZIP export ready for App Store Connect — none of which AppMockUp offers at any price.
The honest version: if you want a polished pre-built design and don't mind paying $8-$199 per template, AppMockUp has a deep library. If you'd rather have a fast, opinionated editor that produces unlimited screenshots for one flat $39/year — plus AI localization, callouts, and custom fonts — ezscreenshots is built for that. Below is the side-by-side; picked an unfair fight? Let us know.
See the editor difference
AppMockUp's editor is powerful but layered — every element (Title, Subtitle, Device Group, Device 1, Device 2) gets its own panel of controls: position margins, offsets, opacity, rotation, width. ezscreenshots intentionally has none of that. Here are the two editors side-by-side.

Which one's for you?
Pick AppMockUp if…
- You want to buy a specific polished template ($8-$199) rather than design from scratch or pay a flat subscription
- Mesh gradients and panoramic backgrounds across a multi-screen series are features you specifically want
- You like seeing the App Store / Play Store carousel preview right inside the editor
- You're comfortable in a layered editor with controls for position offsets, opacity, margins, and rotation
- You don't need AI localization, callouts, custom font upload, or live perspective for this launch
Pick ezscreenshots if…
- You localize for multiple App Store / Play Store regions and want one-click AI translation to 30+ languages
- You want zoom callouts to highlight specific features in your screenshots
- You need live-draggable 3D perspective with full control over the tilt, not preset angles
- You want to upload your own custom font (your brand typeface) rather than picking from a built-in library
- You want to export every device size as a clean ZIP ready for App Store Connect upload
- You value privacy — your screenshots stay 100% on your device, never uploaded
- You're happy with 3 free exports per month, or want unlimited at $39/year — a predictable, sustainable price

"This is exactly the kind of internal tool indie devs end up needing. Most screenshot makers are built like design suites, when the real need is just: drop screenshot, edit headline, export clean PNG."

FAQ
Isn't AppMockUp free? Why pay for ezscreenshots?
AppMockUp's editor is free, but the polished, ready-to-ship templates that are the main draw cost $8 to $199 each. So the actual cost to produce a finished design with AppMockUp is either time (designing from scratch in their layered editor) or money per template. ezscreenshots is $39/year flat for unlimited use of all features including AI localization, callouts, custom fonts, and multi-screen export. If you ship more than ~4 designs a year, ezscreenshots Pro is cheaper than buying templates — and the free tier (3 exports/month, no watermark, full commercial use) covers basic needs at $0.
Does ezscreenshots have templates?
Intentionally no. ezscreenshots is built for users who want full creative control without a template library (or template marketplace) getting in the way. You start blank, drag a screenshot in, type a caption, pick a background, and export. Most users finish a complete iPhone + iPad set in under 15 minutes. If you specifically want a paid template library to pick from, AppMockUp is the better fit.
Will my screenshots stay private?
Yes — ezscreenshots runs entirely in your browser. Your screenshots are never uploaded to any server. AppMockUp doesn't publicly document where its processing happens, but its editor is cloud-hosted. If a guaranteed "images never leave my device" workflow matters to you, ezscreenshots is the safer pick.
What can I do in ezscreenshots that I can't in AppMockUp?
The biggest deltas are: AI translation to 30+ App Store locales (one click, all locales exported as a zip), live-draggable 3D perspective on the screenshot itself, zoom callouts to highlight specific UI features, custom font file upload (your own brand typeface), and multi-screen ZIP export ready to upload to App Store Connect. AppMockUp doesn't currently offer any of those.
How does the 50%-off Pro discount work?
Two ways to claim it. If you've bought an AppMockUp template, email support@ezscreenshots.com with the receipt. If you've just been using their free editor, email us mentioning you came from AppMockUp. We'll send a 50%-off coupon for your first year of ezscreenshots Pro. One per email, manual approval, no expiry on the offer.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. ezscreenshots Pro is a standard Stripe subscription. Cancel anytime from the customer portal — you keep Pro access through the end of your billing period.
Is the free tier enough for one App Store launch?
For a basic launch with one device size and a few screens, yes — 3 full-resolution exports per month covers a small submission. If you need more, the $9/mo plan is the lightest paid option, or annual Pro is $39/year for unlimited exports plus AI translation and multi-screen ZIP export.
Ready to make your screenshots?
No signup. No clutter. Free tier exports real PNGs.
