Why pick Mockup Center over freemockup.video?

freemockup.video is a mockup video tool. Mockup Center covers that and more: 3D devices, animated videos and photo mockups in one app.

What freemockup.video does well

freemockup.video runs in the browser, so it works on Windows and Linux without an install. It has a free tier and a paid plan at $9 a month or $72 a year (October 2026), and it exports MP4 and ProRes MOV.

For a quick animated phone or laptop clip on a computer where you can't install apps, it's a sensible choice.

Where Mockup Center is different

Its catalogue had 16 devices when we looked, three of them free. Mockup Center has 65, including foldables, tablets, watches, an iMac and a browser window.

Mockup Center is also a native Mac app. Long exports don't depend on a browser tab staying open, and your screenshots aren't uploaded anywhere to be rendered.

And there's the money. A subscription at $72 a year costs more than Mockup Center Premium within about a year and a half, and keeps costing after that. Premium is paid once.

Which one should you pick?

On Windows today, freemockup.video works and Mockup Center doesn't (our web version is coming). On a Mac, Mockup Center gives you more devices, photo mockups and no monthly bill.

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop your screenshot

    A screenshot, a screen recording or a whole set of them. They land on the device's screen.

  2. 2

    Pick a device or template

    Turn and light the 3D device yourself, or open an animated template and keep its motion.

  3. 3

    Export

    PNG, JPG, MP4 or transparent WebM. A batch downloads as one ZIP.

Why people move from freemockup.video

  • Three tools in one

    Live 3D, video templates and photo mockups without switching apps.

  • Less than Rotato Premium

    Pro is $79 a year, against $199 for Rotato Premium, with more templates and 250+ photo mockups.

  • Stacked animations

    Add animations one after another and change their lengths by dragging.

  • Your files stay with you

    A Mac app: screenshots don't get uploaded to render.
