AI Screenshot Library: Find instant creative inspiration

App store screenshots play a crucial role in driving installs—but optimizing them is no easy task.

With limited space and time to showcase your app’s value (while also navigating strong competition, resource constraints, or fragmented insights), how do you ensure your creatives are compelling enough to convert users?

Many app marketers struggle with:

• Finding creative inspiration beyond their direct competitors.
• Understanding which visual elements resonate in different markets.
• Adapting screenshots for seasonality or promotions.
• Identifying trends that actually improve conversion rates.

Meet the AI Screenshot Library, your new creative shortcut.

The AI Screenshot Library is a game-changer for creative research, allowing you to instantly find inspiration for your app store visuals.

Powered by AI, it allows you to explore our entire database of app store screenshots to uncover trends, test new ideas, and refine your creative strategy. With over 4.3 million sets of creatives collected last year alone, you’ll never run out of inspiration.

How does the AI Screenshot Library work?

Our AI system analyzes and tags screenshots by key visual elements, letting you search by style, theme, or trend—just enter a keyword, choose a country or category, and explore relevant creatives.

• Discover design patterns, high-performing trends, and competitor strategies.
• Refine searches with automatic tags highlighting common visual elements.
• Save inspiration in Moodboards to enhance collaboration with your team.

Whether you’re launching a new app, localizing creatives, or optimizing for seasonality, the AI Screenshot Library helps you work faster and smarter.

1. Pre-launch research: Finding the right creative formula

For example, let’s say you’re launching a new match-3 RPG. How can you represent mechanics like power-ups, jackpots, or damage, beyond standard gameplay shots?

With the AI Screenshot Library, you could:

• Search for “match 3” in the Role-Playing category to see how similar games present mechanics.
• Use AI-generated tags to understand the most common elements (“characters,” “battles,” and “puzzles” in the above example).
• Compare screenshots across genres (e.g., searching for “rpg” in the Casual or Puzzle categories).

Whenever you find a relevant screenshot, save it to a Moodboard—this means when briefing designers, you’ll have clear examples to back up your creative vision.

2. Turn broad creative direction into specific visuals

App store marketers often get vague creative requests from stakeholders—making it difficult to translate abstract ideas into effective visuals.

For example, if someone asked you to make a Health & Fitness app’s screenshots “feel more relaxing”, what does that mean? A cozy indoor scene? A tropical beach?

Instead of guessing, the AI Screenshot Library helps refine broad concepts.

• Search for “relaxing” or “calm” to see common visual interpretations that match the intended emotion.
• Use AI tags to break ideas down into relevant trends for your app (e.g., “yoga” or “sleeping”).

This can help your team align on creative direction and remove subjectivity from the design process.

3. Aligning screenshots with seasonal trends

Seasonal shifts in consumer behavior can have a big impact on conversions. If your app store creatives don’t reflect holiday sales, back-to-school campaigns, or cultural events, you risk missing out.

Instead of manually browsing competitor pages, the AI Screenshot Library lets you:

• Search for “buy shoes for school” to analyze trends—like whether sneakers or sandals dominate results, or how different colors are used.
• Understand how creative trends (e.g., the popularity of “sneakers”) might reflect user demand.

With AI-powered insights, easily align your screenshots with data-driven trends instead of gut feeling—to ensure you maximize conversions at the right moments.

4. Localizing creatives to expand into new markets

A strong metadata and keyword strategy is key for entering new markets—but if your screenshots don’t align with local user expectations, installs might not meet your expectations.

Localization goes beyond translating copy—it requires adapting visuals to cultural preferences and design trends.

Then, dive deeper into specific design elements with the AI Screenshot Library:

• Search for “chat with emoji” in different markets to compare how messaging apps display conversations.
• Analyze differences in your target markets for emojis, sticker reactions, colors, and more.

Save the best examples to a Moodboard, export the Moodboard as a PDF, and send it to your creative team to ensure your visuals and A/B tests meet the mark.

5. Showcasing awards & trust signals for credibility

Awards, press mentions, and user trust signals can boost conversion rates—but how you display them depends on your app category.

For example, Finance apps typically highlight accolades in a data-driven manner, emphasizing trust metrics (e.g., 300,000 investors, 630K trusted clients), user testimonials, and third-party ratings from institutions like NerdWallet or Bankrate. This would differ from apps in the Education category, for example.

With the AI Screenshot Library, you can:

• Search for “awards” to see how different apps highlight achievements.
• Compare trust indicators like star ratings, press features, and credibility badges.
• Determine how showcasing awards could help you stand out in specific categories.

6. Protecting your brand: Monitoring intellectual property infringement

Finally, if you own a well-known app, competitors or scam apps might copy your creatives. Spotting and enforcing IP protection is difficult without a structured system.

Before, catching violations relied on manual monitoring or user reports. With the AI Screenshot Library, you could:

• Search for your app’s brand elements to detect potential misuse.
• Take faster action to protect your brand identity.
