Is StoreStudio Free a trial?

No. Free does not expire. Create one project with five slides and one language, then export at the default size without a watermark. No account is required.

Can I use Listing before my app is published?

How do Listing and Studio work together?

Send a phrase or review insight from Listing to a saved Studio project. The source stays attached while you develop the caption and screenshot design.

How do I publish my changes?

Give your template a clear purpose

AppLaunchpad offers a large template library and AI translation. StoreStudio’s packs provide a ready-to-edit screenshot sequence, while Listing helps you decide which message belongs in it.

Research phrases from your app description, public reviews, and competitors you choose. Inspect the search results and use the findings to explain your app in words that fit what people are looking for.

Write the page alongside the design

Work on your name, subtitle, keywords, and description in Listing. Field checks update as you write, and the public copy available from Apple stays there for comparison. Send a useful phrase into Studio to develop it as a screenshot caption, with the source attached.

Carry your decisions into the next update

Keep a record of the change you make, its release date, and your observations. Suite includes the full Studio editor and Listing, so you can develop the design and the store-page message together as your app changes.

See how research becomes your next update
