App Store Preview Videos

App Store Preview Video Generator

Generate App Store and Google Play preview videos that meet every Apple and Google spec. 9:16 portrait, 15 to 30 seconds, no third-party UI. From your screenshots to a launch-day-ready preview cut, in under a minute.

An App Store preview video generator produces the 15- to 30-second portrait video that plays on your app's product page in the iOS App Store and Google Play. Motionfly composites your app screenshots into a 3D iPhone or Pixel mockup, walks through your core flow with on-screen callouts, and exports in the exact dimensions Apple and Google require, no editor, no third-party UI, no rejection.

App Store preview videos drive 25%+ of installs, and most teams skip them

Every iOS and Android team focuses on screenshots for the App Store and Play Store. Most skip the preview video, which is wrong: when present, the preview video drives a measurable lift in installs (Apple's own data, plus published ASO benchmarks). The reason teams skip it is that producing a compliant preview video has historically meant booking a freelance editor for $1,500 to $5,000 per cut, plus iterations, plus rejection if the video accidentally shows third-party UI.

✕Apple rejects preview videos that show third-party app UI, system pop-ups, or competitor logos
✕Manual editing for App Store specs (15-30s, 9:16, exact framing) is tedious and error-prone
✕Producing variants for ASO A/B testing requires re-recording from scratch
✕Freelance editors charge $1,500-$5,000 per preview cut, plus iterations
✕Each app store update requires a preview-video update to stay current
✕Localized preview videos for international markets multiply the cost per locale

Compliant App Store and Google Play preview videos in under a minute

Motionfly takes your app screenshots, walks them through the core flow on a 3D iPhone or Pixel mockup, and exports a 15-30 second 9:16 preview video with no third-party UI. Apple-compliant by default. Generate per-locale variants by changing one prompt parameter. Run ASO A/B tests by tweaking the camera move, the featured screen, or the callout copy.

Apple-Compliant Export Specs

Auto-renders at the exact 9:16 dimensions, frame rate, and duration Apple requires for App Store preview videos. No manual cropping, no spec sheets, no rejection.

Google Play Preview Rendering

Separate spec for Google Play (different aspect ratios accepted), exported alongside the iOS cut from the same prompt. Upload to both stores from one render.

3D iPhone, iPad, and Pixel Mockups

Photorealistic device renders that ASO consultants and Apple's own marketing use, not flat screen recordings. Pick your device per market.

No-Third-Party-UI Guarantee

Motionfly never overlays system pop-ups, competitor logos, or external app UI in your preview. The single biggest cause of App Store rejection, removed by default.

ASO Variant Generator

Spin up 3-5 preview variants for A/B testing by changing the camera move, the featured screen, or the callout copy. Each variant takes another minute to render.

Localized Preview Cuts

Re-render with localized AI voiceover and translated on-screen text overlays. One base prompt produces preview cuts for English, Spanish, German, Japanese, and any other supported locale.

How it works

Upload your app screenshots

Drop in screenshots of the screens you want featured. Pick the device (iPhone, iPad, Pixel) and the market (App Store, Google Play, both).

Describe the flow and the audience

Tell Motionfly which user flow to walk through, the tone of the voiceover, and your brand palette. Motionfly handles the timing, the framing, and the compliance rules.

Render and upload to App Store Connect

Motionfly delivers Apple- and Google-compliant preview cuts ready to upload to App Store Connect or Google Play Console. Same-day launch.

Who is the App Store preview video generator for?

Motionfly is built for mobile teams that need a compliant App Store preview, a Google Play cut, and per-locale variants, all from one prompt, all on launch day.

Indie iOS and Android developers
Launch your app with a polished preview video without paying $2K to a freelance editor or learning Final Cut. Motionfly delivers Apple- and Google-compliant cuts in under a minute, ready to upload before your launch tweet goes live.
Mobile product teams under ASO pressure
App Store and Google Play preview videos drive measurable conversion lift on the product page. Motionfly produces them in spec for both stores so you can A/B test 3-5 variants per release instead of one, and iterate on the cut that wins.
Localization and market-expansion teams
Apple lets you submit a preview video per locale. Most teams skip this because re-recording per language is too expensive. Motionfly re-renders the same preview with localized voiceover in minutes, unlocking the per-locale conversion lift Apple's own data shows.
ASO and growth marketing consultants
Producing preview videos for client portfolios used to mean a freelance editor on retainer. Motionfly compresses that into a self-serve tool, so you can ship preview cuts the same day a client signs and turn ASO around in the same sprint.

A real App Store preview prompt, and what Motionfly generates

Drop in screenshots, describe the flow, get a launch-day-ready Apple-compliant preview cut.

Prompt

App Store preview for Lumen, a focus-timer app for students. Walk through starting a 25-minute focus session, pausing it, and reviewing the weekly study report. Audience: high school and college students. Tone: warm, encouraging, slightly playful. 9:16 portrait, 25 seconds. Brand: deep purple background, bright yellow accents. Show a 3D iPhone 15 Pro mockup. AI voiceover: warm female voice.

What Motionfly generates

Motionfly generates a 25-second 9:16 preview opening with the Lumen logo reveal in deep purple. The camera holds on a 3D iPhone 15 Pro mockup as the screen walks through the focus-timer setup, the start-session moment with an animated yellow highlight on the play button, the pause interaction, and the weekly study-report screen with an animated progress bar. Warm female AI voiceover narrates encouragingly. The preview ends without any external pop-ups, third-party UI, or system overlays, fully Apple-compliant. Exports both the iOS App Store cut (9:16, 25s) and a Google Play variant from the same render.

Frequently asked questions

Does Motionfly's preview video meet Apple's App Store submission rules?

Yes. Motionfly's App Store preview videos are designed against Apple's App Store Review Guideline 2.3.10 and the App Store preview video specs (9:16 portrait, 15 to 30 seconds, no third-party UI, no system overlays, no competitor logos, no marketing copy outside your own app). The default preset is fully compliant; you can also explicitly request specific framing in the prompt.

Can I generate a preview video for both iOS and Android from one prompt?

Yes. The same prompt produces both an Apple App Store preview cut (9:16 portrait, 15-30s) and a Google Play preview variant. You upload to each store independently through App Store Connect and Google Play Console, but the source asset is shared, so iterating on the prompt updates both at once.

How do ASO A/B test variants work?

Spin up 3-5 preview variants by tweaking one parameter in the prompt: the featured screen, the camera move (push-in vs pan), the callout copy, or the voiceover tone. Each variant takes another minute to render. Upload them as alternates in App Store Connect's product page experiments dashboard or Google Play's preview-A/B feature, then double down on the cut with the highest install lift.

What about localized preview videos for international markets?

Apple supports a different preview video per locale, and the conversion lift from a localized preview is well documented. Motionfly re-renders the same preview with localized AI voiceover in any supported language and translates the on-screen text overlays automatically. So one base prompt produces preview cuts for English, Spanish, German, Japanese, and any other supported locale, in minutes per locale.
