Apple Frames

Free shortcut that wraps a screenshot in the right Apple device bezel

Feed it a screenshot from an iPhone, iPad, Mac or Apple Watch, and it matches the resolution to a device, then composites the image inside the correct product frame. It will merge a set of screenshots into a single picture. Other shortcuts can call it. Writers and developers use it for App Store listings and review articles. On a Mac, a command line version does the same job in bulk.

    Apple writer · founder of MacStories

    His own free shortcut, published on MacStories and given away rather than sold. Version 4 added colored bezels, proportional scaling for several devices merged into one image, and an open source command line version. He says he has been using both extensively for weeks.
