Inside Codex

Research, generate, revise, and translate from one Codex thread.

Shots was made for agent work. Codex can pull project context, use saved Studio references, and keep revising the screenshot you chose without exporting and re-uploading between edits.

FAQ

Common questions

What is Shots?

Shots is an AI App Store screenshot generator that works from your coding agent and from Studio. It researches your category, reads your real app context, and generates store-ready screenshots, app icons, and listing copy you can revise and translate.

How does Shots work with my coding agent?

Install the Shots MCP plugin for Codex, Claude Code, or Gemini CLI, then ask your agent to generate App Store screenshots from your app repo. The agent pulls project context, checks competing listings, and calls Shots tools to generate, revise, and translate. Results are saved to Studio for review.

Is Shots free to try?

Yes. Every account starts with 3 free screenshots and 1 app. No card is required.

Are Shots screenshots approved by Apple?

Yes. Shots screenshots are live in production App Store listings including Babel Pods and Pull. Apple reviews each app submission in App Store Connect, so check final screenshots against your app UI and claims before submitting.

Which platforms and languages does Shots support?

Shots generates screenshots for iPhone, iPad, Android, and Apple Watch sizes, and translates screenshot text and listing copy into 50 App Store locales while keeping your approved visual direction.

Do I need design skills to use Shots?

No. Shots researches 2,500+ App Store listings and writes the creative brief before it generates. You refine with plain-language feedback — change the background, tighten copy, or swap layouts while your real app UI stays intact.
