iPad Kickstarter Campaign App Preview, ready in minutes
Backers weighing whether to fund a hardware or software product want to see the companion app actually working, and a polished {device} mockup clip does that far more convincingly than a wall of screenshots on the campaign page. Mockly frames your screenshot in a slim-bezel iPad frame that reads as premium without stealing attention from your screens, built for crowdfunding creators launching a companion app.

Backers weighing whether to fund a hardware or software product want to see the companion app actually working, and a polished {device} mockup clip does that far more convincingly than a wall of screenshots on the campaign page. The iPad frame in Mockly is portrait by default, with a one-click flip to landscape for tablet-optimized layouts, with a 12px corner radius tuned to match the real device. Recommended aspect ratios: 9:16 or 1:1 for portrait app walkthroughs, 16:9 for landscape dashboards.
How Mockly builds the animation
Upload a screenshot of your app's core screens, frame them in iPad, and use human-custom scroll stops to pause on the features backers care about most — setup, main dashboard, key results.
What you export
Export at 4K for the sharpest possible embed in your campaign page's video gallery. Every export is yours to use commercially, and Pro removes the Mockly watermark entirely if you're shipping this to production.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. A high-fidelity design mockup or prototype screenshot works just as well as a finished app screen — backers are evaluating the concept and interface, not production code.
Most creators place it in the main video gallery near the top of the page, right after the primary campaign video, so it's one of the first things backers see.
Match the frame to how backers will actually use the app day-to-day — iPad if that's the primary device, though many campaigns show more than one device to prove cross-platform support.
