What's the first screenshot on your App Store page?
Reply with your link. We pick indie apps for the weekly teardown, and the next one could be yours.
One design. Every language.
Write the text once, name the markets, and export every page in every language as one ZIP.
Which language would you check first?
App Store screenshot sizes in one table: iPhone 6.9" (1320x2868, 1290x2796), 6.5" (1242x2688), iPad 13" (2064x2752), plus which ones Apple scales for you and which rejections come from wrong sizes.

Building an iOS app that's already live?
Reply with your App Store link and we'll consider it for an upcoming Apps of the Week teardown.
Apps of the Week, week 45: TrailMapper, Ideon and DopamineOS.
Ideon's English headlines sit over a phone UI in Dutch: "Annuleer", "Gereed", "Collecties". The app supports eight languages; nine storefronts show this same set.
Which language is your screenshot UI in?
This week's teardowns:
TrailMapper: shotlingo.com/apps-of-the-we…
Ideon: shotlingo.com/apps-of-the-we…
DopamineOS: shotlingo.com/apps-of-the-we…
Want yours pulled apart next week? Reply with your App Store link.
Yes, you can update App Store screenshots without a new build. They live on the version entry, not in your binary. Reattach your approved build, swap the images, resubmit. Only the app icon needs a rebuild.

Arabic, Hebrew, Farsi and Urdu read right to left.
All four are in ShotLingo's language list.
Design one set, re-render it in every language you ship, and export at the exact pixel sizes each store asks for.
Which language would you add next?

How long each App Store screenshot took:
Screenshot 1: 3 days
Screenshot 2: 1 day
Screenshot 3: 2 hours
Screenshot 4: 20 minutes
Screenshot 5: the settings screen, as is
US clocks go back an hour tonight.
Indie dev plans for the extra hour:
- fix the onboarding bug
- rewrite the screenshot headline instead
- open App Store Connect
- refresh the downloads
- close App Store Connect
Scariest things an indie dev can see this Halloween:
- "Metadata Rejected"
- 400 impressions, 0 downloads
- a 1-star review that just says "ok"
- your German headline, two lines too long
- Xcode: "Indexing..."
Starter pack: launch week
- screenshots made at 2am
- headline: the app name
- English only, "for now"
- v1.0.1: bug fixes and improvements
- refreshing App Store Connect every 4 minutes
Me: the screenshots are localized.
The screenshots: Spanish headline, English buttons, US dates in the calendar.
A user in Madrid: noticed.
Screenshot headlines, ranked:
D: "Welcome"
C: "The app you need"
B: "Track your habits"
A: "Track a habit in two taps"
S: the A line, in the reader's language
Apps of the Week, week 44: The Slowsteader, Tovak and Sprout.
The Slowsteader's first headline runs across two screenshots. On the App Store that gap lands inside a word: "Your slowstea" on frame one, "d, gently kept" on frame two.
Does your headline fit in one frame?
This week's three teardowns:
The Slowsteader: shotlingo.com/apps-of-the-we…
Tovak: shotlingo.com/apps-of-the-we…
Sprout: shotlingo.com/apps-of-the-we…
Drag in raw screenshots, pick a device frame, write the headline once.
ShotLingo re-renders the set in every language you ship and exports one archive, foldered by language.

App Store screenshots, as written by the developer:
1. "Here's the app"
2. "Here's the app again"
3. Settings, but in dark mode
4. "Widgets!"
5. A review that just says "nice"
