Mockuuups Studio alternative: 3D mockups and videos, free
A Mockuuups Studio alternative that runs in your browser: 3D device mockups and promo videos, free images, no signup, nothing uploaded, fair source.
Mockuuups Studio solved a different problem first: a huge library of photographed and illustrated scenes — hands holding phones, desks, cafés — into which you drop a screenshot. It is a 2D template library at heart, and a very good one. If what you want is a photo of your app in the world, that library is hard to beat. If what you want is a 3D device you can move and film, you have hit its edge, and that edge is where OpenMock starts.
What Mockuuups Studio does well
Mockuuups Studio is a desktop (macOS and Windows) and web application with a large library of photo-based and illustrated mockup templates for placing screenshots into scenes.
- Very large template library spanning devices, hands, desks and print
- Quick still images for social and blog posts
- Desktop apps for macOS and Windows plus a web version
Where OpenMock is different
OpenMock is a browser-based studio for putting screenshots and screen recordings on 3D devices and turning them into promo videos. The differences that matter for someone comparing it with Mockuuups Studio:
- Real 3D, not photographed templates. OpenMock's devices are procedural 3D models: change the angle, the lighting, the lid, the finish — every render is a new photograph rather than a fixed one with your screenshot pasted in.
- Video is the point. Keyframed camera moves, motion blur, transitions, text and logo shots, audio, MP4 up to 4K/60 fps. A template library gives you a still; OpenMock gives you a clip.
- Nothing uploaded, no account. The web version of a template library still processes your files somewhere; OpenMock never does.
- Free stills. Unwatermarked PNG/JPEG/WebP exports at any size without a plan.
- Fair source. Public code, FSL-1.1-MIT.

When to stay with Mockuuups Studio
For lifestyle photography — a phone in a hand at a café table, a laptop on a real desk with real coffee — a photographed template library is the right tool, and OpenMock does not try to be one. Keep Mockuuups Studio for in-context photo mockups and social variety.
When OpenMock is the better fit
- You need a device video, not a still
- You want to control the angle and lighting rather than choose from fixed photos
- You want free, unwatermarked stills without a subscription
- Your screenshots are confidential
- You want the current iPhone 17 / MacBook Neo generation as true 3D models
Try it in two minutes
Open OpenMock, pick a device, drop in a screenshot or screen recording, move the camera, export. If the result isn't what you wanted, you have lost two minutes and no personal data.
FAQ
Is OpenMock a free Mockuuups Studio alternative?
For images, completely: PNG, JPEG and WebP exports are free with no signup or watermark. Video exports are free at up to 720p/30 fps with a watermark; Pro ($5/month or $36/year) removes it and unlocks 4K and 60 fps.
Does OpenMock upload my screenshots or recordings?
No. Rendering, decoding and encoding all happen in your browser with WebGL and WebCodecs. Nothing is sent to a server and there is no account to create.
Can OpenMock put my app in a photo scene like Mockuuups Studio?
Not with photographed hands or desks. OpenMock renders a 3D device over a solid, gradient, image or blurred-image background with studio lighting — closer to a product photograph than a lifestyle photo. Use your own photo as the background for an in-situ feel.
Which is faster for a quick social post?
For a single still with a photographed scene, a template library is faster. For a still where you want a specific angle or a matching brand background, OpenMock is comparable — pick a device, drop the screenshot, export — and it is free.
