Screenshots design + A/B testing
We design the app's screenshots for the App Store and Google Play and, where possible, test variants: screenshots are one of the strongest factors influencing the decision to install. Clear, selling frames raise page conversion. Honestly upfront: screenshots strongly affect conversion but do NOT guarantee download numbers; an A/B test gives a reliable conclusion only with enough traffic (on little traffic the result is random); and screenshots must show the real app — misleading frames lead to rejection, bad reviews and refunds.
Screenshots design + A/B testing — overview

Screenshots design + A/B testing is designing the set of screenshots for the app's store page so it conveys the essence, key features and benefit in a few seconds, and (where technically possible) testing different variants on real users. Honestly about importance, this is key: screenshots are one of the most weighty conversion factors on the page: most users decide while swiping the first 2–3 frames, often without even reading the description. So thought-out screenshots genuinely raise the share of installs among those who opened the page. Honestly about A/B, this matters: you can reliably compare variants only with enough traffic. Google Play has built-in page experiments (Store Listing Experiments); in the App Store the options are more limited (Product Page Optimization with limits). If the app has little traffic, an A/B test is statistically unreliable — we will honestly say whether it makes sense to test now or to grow traffic first, and meanwhile rely on best practices. Honestly about frame truthfulness, this is fundamental: screenshots must reflect the real interface and features. Embellishing the non-existent leads to rejection at review, to bad reviews ('not what was in the pictures') and to refunds — that harms rather than helps. We make frames appealing but honest. Honestly about the effect: we raise conversion but do not guarantee a specific number of downloads — it depends on traffic, the product, and the rest of ASO. Honestly about access: app screens/design and console access are needed. An important boundary: this is screenshots+A/B; preview video — 849, general ASO — 844, title/description — 846/847. Picture this: instead of 'random screens from the app' — a selling storyboard, tested on users where traffic is enough. The base price starts from 20,000 ₽ (depends on the number of frames and stores).
Problems we solve
- Screenshots are random, do not convey benefit — low conversion.
- The first frames do not hook, the user does not swipe further.
- No data on which screenshot variant works better.
- Screenshots are embellished and do not match the real app.

FAQ
Will an A/B test definitely show the best variant?
Only with enough traffic, and that is honest. An A/B test is statistically reliable when enough users see the page; on little traffic the result is random and cannot be trusted. Google Play has built-in experiments, the App Store's options are more limited. We will honestly assess whether it makes sense to test now, or to first rely on best practices and grow traffic.
Can the screenshots show features nicer than they are?
No — that harms and is risky. Screenshots must reflect the real interface and features: embellishing the non-existent leads to rejection at review, bad reviews 'not what was in the pictures' and refunds. We make frames appealing by honest means — a focus on real benefit and clear presentation, not invention.
Will good screenshots increase downloads?
They raise page conversion to install — one of the strongest factors. But we honestly do not guarantee a specific number of downloads: it also depends on page traffic, the rest of ASO (844/846/847), reviews and the product itself. Screenshots are a powerful conversion lever, but not the only factor in final downloads.
