Mimicly is a chat story and mockup maker. You write both sides of a conversation in a chat template, and Mimicly saves it as a screenshot or plays it back as a video where the messages appear one at a time. People use it for text story videos, skits, short film scenes, storyboards, class examples and content previews. There are 73 templates for messages, AI-style conversations, social posts, stories, comments, email and game chats, plus a phone lock screen with notifications, incoming call screens and live stream chats. MAKE THE CONVERSATION YOURS Edit message text, names, profile photos, timestamps and supported interface details. Switch between light and dark looks and preview the scene as you work. AI chat templates can also show a "thought for" row and code blocks. PHOTOS AND VOICE NOTES Send a photo inside a chat template. Take it with the camera or pick one from your library, and whatever you typed goes along as the caption. Voice notes work in 13 chat templates. You can record one in the app or pick an audio file, and in four of those templates you hold the mic button to record, the way you would in a messaging app. Voice bubbles show the waveform of your recording and play it back. SAVE AN IMAGE OR RECORD A DIALOGUE Export a sharp PNG image, or turn a supported conversation into an MP4 where the messages appear in sequence. The Preview button plays the conversation before you record it. Game-chat templates support image export only. KEEP WORKING ON YOUR IDEAS Save projects and come back to your edits. Use the app in English, Turkish, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Indonesian, German or Swiss German. FREE AND PRO You can open and edit every template, with or without an account. Without Pro, PNG and MP4 exports carry a small Mimicly watermark. Sign in and your first 2 exports come out without it. Pro removes the watermark from every export. Monthly subscription and lifetime purchase options are available; prices are shown before purchase. Restore purchases from Manage Pro. Mimicly creates fictional, editable mockups. It does not send messages, publish to social networks or generate AI answers. All dialogue is written by you. Mimicly is independent and is not affiliated with the platforms its templates depict. Monthly subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.
