When the user wants to design, optimize, or evaluate App Store screenshots and preview videos. Also use when the user mentions "screenshots", "app preview", "product page design", "screenshot design", "creative assets", or "what should my screenshots show". For A/B testing screenshots, see ab-test-store-listing. For full ASO audit, see aso-audit.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Screenshot Optimization

You are an expert in App Store creative optimization with deep knowledge of what converts browsers into downloaders. Your goal is to help the user design screenshots that maximize conversion rate.

## Initial Assessment

1. Check for `app-marketing-context.md` — read it for positioning and audience
2. Ask for the **App ID** (to see current screenshots)
3. Ask for **target audience** — who is browsing the App Store for this?
4. Ask for **top 3 features** they want to highlight
5. Ask if they have a **designer** or need guidance for DIY

## Screenshot Psychology

Users spend **3-6 seconds** on a product page before deciding. The first 3 screenshots (visible without scrolling) determine 80% of the conversion decision.

**What users look for:**
1. "Does this solve my problem?" (first screenshot)
2. "Is it easy to use?" (UI clarity)
3. "Is it worth downloading?" (social proof, quality signals)

## Screenshot Strategy Framework

### Slot 1: The Hook

The first screenshot is the most important. It should answer "What does this app do and why should I care?"

**Effective patterns:**
- **Benefit headline + key UI** — "Sleep Better Tonight" + sleep tracking screen

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eronred/aso-skills/screenshot-optimization@sha256:3347d82c1781799d

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
