Your app’s artwork is a vital component in making your app look awesome and appealing to your user base.

Not only have we done the heavy lifting for you by providing you with several layouts per feature, but we’ve also created a file that contains all the necessary templates for your app icon, loading screens, background images, image carousels, and feature icons which you can download here:

When you’re working on artwork for your app, here’s some Pro Tips to keep in mind:

If working on images for your app is scary thought, or if you don’t have the time to invest in working on images for your app, you can get amazing free photos that you can use in your app at the following links. They update and upload new images regularly so check back often for new photos. 

The better the quality of the images, the better the first impression that your users will have for your app. If you already have them, you can use paid programs such as Photoshop or Illustrator, but these programs can get expensive and can be daunting to use for people who don’t already have experience with them. Because of this, we’ve found a simpler and free alternative to Photoshop out there which is called Canva and is totally free to use! You can access it here:

When working with images in your app, you’re going to be utilizing the Media Library quite a bit. So make sure to check out the dedicated article that we have for it here.

It’s impossible to account for every possible phone screen size when it comes to app images, especially for newer phones where the screen display goes all the way to the phone’s edge. This is why we suggest adding a margin of 10-20 pixels to each side of your images which will create a border around the edge of the image that allows for flexibility when displaying your images. This should give you enough of a safe space to help prevent the image from being too zoomed in and cutting the image’s content off from fully displaying.

While you can use gorgeous images with a high resolution in your app, they will end up having a larger file size. This can affect the loading times of the images in your app. Because of this, we recommend finding a good balance between the file’s resolution and file size. We recommend that you don’t go any higher than 72 dpi when working on an image, and shoot for a file size that’s lower than 1 MB. If you need help with compressing image files there’s some great free online tools that will help you lower the file size for your images:

You may be wondering what’s the difference between a JPG and an PNG file, and when you should use one image format over the other. The main difference is PNG images can have transparencies in them, while JPG images can’t. This means that PNG files tend to have a larger file size, so we recommend that you only use PNG when you want to have transparency in the image. If you don’t need a transparency in the image, then we recommend you use a JPG instead.
