App developers, graphic designers, and even journalists who need to add an iPhone or Mac frame, commonly called a mockup or template, to images might benefit from this useful new tool. This can be especially helpful when making landing pages, article header photos, and App Store screenshots.
Charlie Chapman, the inventor of the Dark Noise app, needed a quick and simple method to include device frames around screenshots, so he made the app. In the past, a lot of users depended on laborious techniques like looking for templates online and manually positioning their screenshots.
We found that there aren’t many specialized solutions for Mac users, despite the existence of comparable programs and services like iFrames (a Safari plugin) and SMPRO (an iOS app).
Because users merely need to drag and drop or copy and paste their screenshots into the software, which then automatically inserts them into device frames, Framous seeks to be more efficient than competing solutions.
Automatic detection, which selects the appropriate frame from a library of devices, including Mac, iPhone, Apple Watch, and Apple TV 4K, is one of the key characteristics. Additionally, you may merge several devices into a single image, and iPhones have a landscape mode.
There are also many choices for customization. For example, you can alter the frame color and relocate the device buttons to the side. Additionally, you may export your photos to Sketch or Figma for additional editing.
The Mac App Store offers Framous for free download. A one-time payment of $19.99 is required if you wish to unlock every frame released in 2025. Alternatively, a $9.99 annual membership is available to unlock every new frame as it becomes available.
