In short. App store screenshots for photo & video apps are the images
on your Apple App Store and Google Play listing that turn browsers into installs — a benefit-led set
ordered as a story (hook, feature, proof, call to action) and designed for what photo & video users
care about.
Photo and video apps convert on the result, so the screenshots should show a stunning before-and-after and make powerful editing feel one-tap easy.
What converts for photo & video apps
Lead with the result: a jaw-dropping edit, ideally a before-and-after.
Show the effect, not the toolbar; people buy the outcome, not the sliders.
Prove it is easy — "One tap", "No skills needed" — to widen the audience.
Let the imagery be the hero; keep captions short so nothing covers the art.
Example headlines that convert for photo & video apps
Short, benefit-led lines like these earn the tap — each names an outcome, not a feature:
“One tap to a stunning edit”
“Before and after, in seconds”
“Pro results, no skills needed”

What is the best hero screenshot for a photo or video app?
A stunning result — often a before-and-after — that shows what the app makes possible in one glance. The output sells the app far better than a shot of the editing tools.
Should editing app screenshots show the tools?
Mostly no. Show the result and promise ease ("one tap"); a brief look at controls can support it, but the finished edit is what makes someone install.
