What it does
When the user wants to plan, script, produce, or optimize App Store Preview videos or Google Play promo videos, the autoplay videos that show in App Store/Play Store search and product pages. Use when the user mentions "App Preview", "preview video", "app store video", "promo video", "Play Store video", "video poster frame", "YouTube promo for Play Store", "30 second app video", "video script", "video specs", or "should I add a preview video". For static screenshots, see screenshot-optimization. For A/B testing the video, see ab-test-store-listing. For broader creative briefs, see screenshot-optimization (covers stills).

Initial Assessment

app-marketing-context.md, read for app, audience, and core value - Ask for the App ID and platform(s), iOS, Android, or both
- Ask if they have existing screen recordings or need to capture fresh
- Ask for target conversion goal, install (top-of-funnel) or trial start (mid-funnel)
- Ask for localization scope, English only, or which markets
