Framely

Framely turns plain screenshots into polished, share-ready mockups — right on your iPhone. Import a screenshot or a screen recording, wrap it in a realistic device frame — flat or on a real 3D device — drop it on a beautiful background, and export in seconds. No account, no sign-up, nothing to learn. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Three modes, one editor — Photo, Video and 3D, with the same text, drawing and layout tools in each • 3D mockups — stand your screenshot on a real 3D device, spin it, tilt it, pick any angle, and set camera keyframes to export the move as a video • Realistic device frames — from iPhone 15 to iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone Air, each in its real finish colors • Backgrounds — solid colors, gradients (linear, radial, angular, diamond), built-in wallpapers, or your own photo with adjustable blur • Layout — aspect ratio, two-axis alignment, zoom and soft shadow • Status bar — a clean 9:41 bar you can switch on, in black or white • Text — add captions and pick the font, size, color and alignment • Draw — freehand brush and arrows to point out what matters • Motion — turn a screen recording into a smooth zoom-and-pan video mockup: trim it, cut parts out, add your own music with fade in and out, or save any frame as a still • Share extension — send a screenshot or a recording straight from Photos or any other app into Framely WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU EXPORT One renderer drives both the live canvas and the final file, so the export matches the preview exactly — no surprises, no cropped shadows. MADE FOR iOS 26 Framely is built with SwiftUI and the new Liquid Glass design, top to bottom. GREAT FOR App Store screenshots, product launches, portfolios, client presentations, social posts and release notes. EXPORTS AND GEMS Framely starts you with 10 free gems. Exporting an image costs 1 gem, exporting a video costs 3. Gems never expire, and you can top up any time with a gem pack. Framely Pro removes the cost entirely — unlimited image and video exports. FRAMELY PRO • Framely Pro Monthly — auto-renewable, billed every month • Framely Pro Yearly — auto-renewable, billed once a year Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. Privacy Policy: https://framely.hoangnguyen.app/privacy.html Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ PRIVACY Framely does not collect your data. Your screenshots are processed on your device — nothing is uploaded to a server and there are no tracking SDKs. Framely only asks for permission to save the mockups you export to your photo library. Framely speaks English and Vietnamese.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Framely at none against iTheme's shown. iTheme's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
