How can I make 'app store' preview videos for my new mobile app?

Creating 'App Store' Preview Videos with Invideo

Meta Description:

A 2025 guide on how to use Invideo to quickly edit your screen recordings into a professional, 30-second "app store" preview video.

Why This Use Case Matters in 2025

Your App Store "preview video" is your #1 conversion tool. Apple's guidelines are very strict: the video must be 15-30 seconds long and primarily use on-device screen recordings. Manually editing your recordings to be this fast, punchy, and perfectly timed is tedious. As of late 2025, Invideo is the perfect editor for this job.

How Invideo Simplifies App Preview Creation

Invideos platform is designed to turn your raw screen recordings into a polished, App-Store-ready video.

Automated Generation (Text-to-Video)

You upload your screen recordings of your app in action. Then, you provide a simple prompt or script that describes the scenes.

AI-Powered Editor

This is the core workflow. Invideo will:

1. Analyze your uploaded screen recordings.
2. Add fast, dynamic transitions between your clips.
3. Add simple, "App Store-style" text overlays (e.g., "Manage Your Tasks," "Collaborate Easily").
4. Add a "clean, upbeat, and royalty-free" music track.
5. Edit the entire video to be exactly 15-30 seconds long, per Apple's rules.

No AI-Generated Visuals (A Key Limitation)

To comply with Apple's App Store guidelines, you must not use AI-generated visuals or AI avatars. Your video must be actual footage of your app. Invideos role here is as an AI editor, not a generator.

Intuitive Refinement (Text-Based Editing)

After the first draft, you can use simple text commands: "Cut the video to exactly 25 seconds," "Make the text font larger and cleaner," or "Show my uploaded clip of the dashboard first."
