# App Promo Video Generator

Describe the app, get a thirty-second promo you can actually run.

Canonical page: https://www.veedio.co/tools/app-promo-video-generator
Search intent: Has an app and needs a short video for a store listing, an ad or a launch post.

## What it produces

- 5 to 8 scenes, each with one spoken line and one generated frame
- A minute by default; 30, 60, 90 or 180 seconds are selectable in the composer (free accounts up to 60s, paid plans to 180s). Scene length comes from the narration's true duration
- ElevenLabs voiceover: 5 voices, narrating in any of 29 languages
- Word-timed captions burned in from the voice model's own character alignment
- A licensed music bed, ducked under the narration, loudness-normalised master
- 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, 1080-class, no watermark on any plan

## Preset applied on this page

- Source type: prompt
- Voice: bella
- Captions: bold-center
- Music: uplifting
- Visual style: cinematic
- Aspect ratio: 9:16

## The brief this page adds, verbatim

This string is prepended to whatever the visitor types before the scriptwriter
sees it — in the free preview on this page, in the video you generate after
clicking through to the composer, and in the API when you send
`preset: "app-promo-video-generator"`. It is the only difference between this page and
the others.

> Write this as a thirty-second app promo. Open on the problem the user has, in their words, not on the app’s name. Scene two names what it does in one plain sentence. Then two or three scenes on the single most unusual thing about it. Close on who it is for and where to get it. No feature lists, no superlatives, no “revolutionary”.

## Example inputs from the page

- A budgeting app that only asks one question a day instead of importing your bank feed
- A running app that plans your week around the weather forecast
- A shared shopping list that works offline and syncs when someone gets signal

## Free with an account

The widget on the page runs the real scriptwriter with this preset and returns the
script, the per-scene image prompts and the estimated runtime. That needs a free
account — it takes a moment and no card — and costs no credits. Rendering the
visuals, voiceover and final file does spend credits, and signup comes with 60 of
them (about 4 videos).

## How it works

1. **Describe the app** — What it does and who for. The odd thing about it is what the hook will use.
2. **Problem first** — The script opens on the user’s problem and names the app second, which is the order that works.
3. **Voiced and captioned** — A bright read with bold captions, rendered vertical in about a minute.

## The problem goes first and the name goes second

Nearly every app promo opens with the product name and a claim about it, and nearly every one is skipped, because a stranger has no reason to care what your app is called. The version that works opens on a situation the viewer recognises and names the app once they want it named.

The brief enforces that order. It also bans feature lists — a thirty-second video that names six features communicates none of them, and the one unusual thing about your app is worth more than the five ordinary ones.

## What the frames cannot do, and what to do about it

The pipeline cannot show your interface. No video is uploaded and no screen is recorded — the composer takes one photo, as the frame the video opens on, and nothing more — and a generated image of an app screen is a convincing picture of software that does not exist — with invented labels and buttons that go nowhere.

So this preset writes the frames around the situation rather than the product: the moment before, the person, the place. For a store listing you will want a screen capture too, and the honest recommendation is to use this for the script, the voice and the captions and cut your own capture in over the middle scenes.

## Where a thirty-second promo actually gets used

Three places, and they want slightly different videos. A store preview wants the interface; a paid social ad wants the hook in the first second and works on mute; a launch post wants the story of why it exists.

This page defaults to the paid-social shape — vertical, captions on, benefit in the first line — because that is the one that has to work hardest. For the other two, say so in the box and the script comes back with a different weighting.

## Who it is for

- **Indie developers** — A launch video that does not cost more than the app did to build.
- **Small product teams** — The video the marketing plan assumed somebody would have time to make.
- **Agencies pitching concepts** — Five versions of a promo in the time a storyboard used to take.
- **Anyone testing positioning** — Rewriting the hook and re-rendering is the cheapest positioning test there is.

## Compared with making it the usual way

| | The usual way | With Veedio |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Input | A creative brief, an agency, a fortnight and four figures. | A description of the app. The script and the shot list come back in seconds. |
| Visuals | A motion-graphics package built around your screenshots. | Generated situational frames — no interface, and the page says so. |
| Voiceover | Book a VO artist, or record yourself and cut the breaths out. | Five ElevenLabs voices, re-recorded free whenever the line changes. |
| Captions | Auto-captions that drift, then an hour nudging keyframes. | Burned in from the voice model’s own word alignment, so they land on the syllable. |
| Turnaround | Weeks between the launch date moving and the video being right. | About a minute, so testing five hooks is an afternoon rather than a budget. |
| Changing it | Re-record the line, re-cut the timeline, re-export, re-upload. | Edit the line and regenerate that one scene. Regenerating a scene is free. |

## FAQ

### Can it show my app’s screens?

No. There is no screen recording and no video upload; a screenshot could open the video as its first frame, but the scenes are generated, and a generated image of an interface is software that does not exist. Use this for the script, voice and captions and cut your own capture over the middle.

### Is it long enough for an app store preview?

Under thirty seconds, which fits most store preview limits. It will not have your interface in it, which most store guidelines expect — so this is better suited to social and launch posts.

### Will it write the App Store copy too?

No, this produces a video script. The free script generator is a better fit for written copy, and it is on the same site under the same free account.

### Can I use my brand colours?

There is no brand kit. You can push the look through the per-scene image prompts, which are editable, but this is not a tool for reproducing a brand system.

### How many versions can I test?

As many as you like — the script costs no credits, so testing ten hooks costs nothing. Rendering is what uses them.

### Is there a watermark on the free credits?

No. There is no watermark on any plan, including the 60 credits you get at signup.

### Do I have to sign up to try this?

Yes, a free one. Signup takes a moment and needs no card. Once you are signed in, the box at the top writes the script and the shot list for no credits — that is the part that decides whether the video is worth making — and rendering it into a file uses the 60 free credits the account starts with, about four videos.

### What does it cost after the free credits?

Starter is $19 a month, Pro $49, Studio $149. A credit is a unit of pipeline cost rather than a video, so a five-scene short costs less than a nine-scene one, and you see the estimate before you spend anything.

### Do I own the videos, and is there a watermark?

You own them, on every plan including the free credits, and there is no watermark on any plan, no resolution cap and no platform withheld. Four things do follow the plan, because they are what a video costs to make: AI motion and sound effects need Starter, a presenter avatar and the choice of video model need Pro, and a free account tops out at a minute where paid plans go to three. Everything else — every voice, every language, every caption style, every aspect ratio — is the same on all of them.
