Anything announced that it can now generate designer‑grade App Store screenshots without user intervention, ending the long‑standing screenshot bottleneck. The update was posted on X with a brief note and a sample image, confirming the feature is live today【https://x.com/i/status/2047782953959170239】.
How the generator works
The tool uses a pretrained image model to compose screenshots that match Apple’s layout guidelines. Users supply the app bundle identifier and a set of UI frames, and Anything returns PNGs ready for upload. The service claims to handle multiple device sizes in a single call, which can shave hours off a release prep cycle.
Pricing and access
Anything has not published a dedicated price sheet for the screenshot service. Existing documentation suggests the feature is bundled into the premium tier of the platform, which starts at $49 / month for small teams. There is no mention of per‑screenshot metering, so cost impact is likely modest for startups that ship a few builds per month. Teams should verify the exact plan before relying on it for CI pipelines.
Caveats to consider
The AI‑generated images look polished, but they may miss edge‑case UI states that require manual tweaking. Early users have reported occasional mismatches in text scaling on older device frames, which can lead to re‑exports. Additionally, the service runs on Anything’s cloud, so teams with strict data‑ residency requirements may need to self‑host an alternative.
When to try it
If your release process includes a manual screenshot step that takes more than a few minutes per device, enable the generator on a staging build to compare quality and turnaround. For startups that already pay for Anything’s premium tier, the incremental value is high; for others, weigh the cost of the tier against the time saved.
What to watch: Upcoming blog posts from Anything may detail API rate limits and any new pricing tiers, which could affect large‑scale usage.
