How do I restyle my project?

Use Restyle screenshots when you want to quickly create a new look for your screenshot set.

Restyling is useful when you want to try a different layout, design style or template without starting again from scratch. It is especially handy for AB testing!

You can restyle your whole screenshot set, or change the layout of one individual screenshot using Pick a Preset.


Restyle your full screenshot set

To restyle your screenshots:

  1. Open your project in the AppScreens designer.

  2. Click the Restyle screenshots button in the top toolbar.

  3. Choose how you want AppScreens to create the new style.

  4. Click Next and follow the flow.

You can choose between Customize Template and Quick Create.

Customize Template

Choose Customize Template when you want to start from a conversion-focused template and customise the details yourself.

This is best when you want more control over the final design.

With this option, you can choose a template style, then continue editing the layout, elements, text, images and styling in the designer.


Quick Create

Choose Quick Create when you want AppScreens to create a new screenshot set for you quickly.

This is best for a faster, simpler setup that you can edit afterwards.

Quick Create lets you pick a style and generate a new screenshot set, then continue customising it in the designer if needed.


Change the layout of one screenshot

If you only want to change one screenshot, use Pick a Preset instead of restyling the whole project.

To change one screenshot layout:

  1. Click the screenshot you want to update.

  2. Open Layouts & Elements in the edit panel.

  3. Click Pick a Preset.

  4. Choose a layout from the preset selector.

  5. Apply it to the selected screenshot.

This replaces that screenshot’s layout with a built-in or saved preset.

Each individual template screen is available as a preset, so you can choose from many ready-made layouts without changing the whole project.

Preset types

The layout selector can include different preset groups, such as:

Template Layouts
Layouts from AppScreens templates.

Your Presets
Layouts you have saved yourself using Save as Preset.

Basic Layouts
Simple starter layouts you can use as a base.

After applying a preset, you can continue editing the screenshot as normal.

After restyling

After restyling or applying a preset, you can still customise the result.

You can:

  • edit text, devices, images and shapes

  • move or resize elements with drag-and-drop

  • fine-tune positioning with Exact Dimensions

  • change backgrounds

  • copy, duplicate or delete elements

  • save a screenshot layout as your own preset

  • preview and export when finished
