Mockupflo vs Shots.so
Shots.so is a quick way to drop a screenshot into a device frame, style the background and export an image or a short animated clip for social. It is strongest on stills. Mockupflo builds the device in 3D and moves a camera around it, so it is the one for launch films, App Store previews and landing-page heroes, and it renders on your machine instead of a server.

3D device mockups and launch films from a screenshot or a screen recording
“Beautiful animations, videos and images for your social media, website and more!”
15 devices built in 3D and rendered in real time, in their real finishes: iPhone, the foldable iPhone Duo, Galaxy, iPad, Apple Watch, MacBook and Pro Display XDR
“iPhone mockups, Android phones, iPads, desktop devices & more”: 33 in its editor, from iPhone 17 and Pixel to iPad, MacBook, iMac, Apple Watch and a Safari window. Not described as 3D; we found no 3D models, so we read them as flat frames.
300+ built-in templates that carry the camera, light and timing (Pro), 64 one-click camera presets, Smart Animate from focus areas you draw, and a keyframe timeline with bezier easing
“Animation Presets”, “Zoom effects… With Parallax effects” and an animation track in the editor
Stills as PNG, JPG or WebP up to 5120 px. Video as MP4 or WebM: 720p at 30 fps free, 1080p and 4K at up to 60 fps on Pro; transparent WebM in Chrome and Edge
Plus: “720p Video at 30 fps / 10 exports / Up to 1 minute each”. Pro: “2K Video at 60 fps / Unlimited exports / Up to 3 minutes each”, GIF, and transparent WebM up to 20 seconds. Images to “6K Ultra HD” on Pro.
In your browser, on your own GPU; video encodes there too. Your screenshots and recordings never upload.
An editor in your browser. Video export needs an account and, in our reading of its editor, renders on Shots.so’s servers; uploads are processed “for rendering your designs”.
A desktop browser with a GPU on Windows, macOS or Linux; video export in Chrome, Edge or Safari 16.4+
The web
Pro: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any MCP client drives the editor through a connector that runs on your machine

Which to pick.
Some people really do want a flat phone on a gradient. This list is for them.
Pick Shots.so if
You like your devices flat, like a sticker on a background, and would find a camera orbiting a real 3D phone distracting.
You would pay $15 a month for video that tops out at 2K instead of $7 for 4K at 60 fps.
Ten video exports on Plus feels generous.
You prefer your unreleased screen recordings to visit someone else’s servers before they come back as a video.
You never want an AI agent to build the film for you. Clicking is character-building.
Pick Mockupflo if
You want the device itself in the shot: real 3D that the camera orbits, rises past and pulls focus on.
You need 4K video: Mockupflo Pro exports 4K at 60 fps, where Shots.so Pro stops at 2K.
Your footage should stay on your machine: rendering and encoding happen in your browser.
You want a whole film carried for you, 300+ templates, and an AI agent that can drive the editor, for $7 a month.
