No, apart from an experimental web beta that is free for now. The Mac app and Rotato Web have a free trial with every feature, no time limit and no card, and every export from the trial carries a Rotato watermark.

How much does Rotato cost, and is it a subscription?

The Mac app is not a subscription: you pay once, $79 for phones only, $89 for every device and some video templates or $199 for the most templates. The $79 license comes with 6 months of new devices and features and the others with 12, and the app keeps working after that. Rotato Web is a subscription, at $15 a month or $79 a year.

Is there a Rotato for Windows?

Not as a desktop app: Rotato for Mac runs only on a Mac. On Windows you can use Rotato Web in Chrome, on a subscription of its own, plus a free experimental beta; a Mac license does not carry over. Wannathis works on Windows: the online editor runs in your browser.

What is the best Rotato alternative?

Wannathis, if you want your app in an art-directed scene rather than on a backdrop. You can try one in the online editor .

Is there a free Rotato alternative?

Yes, for personal projects. Wannathis free mockups come with no watermark, while every export from Rotato's trial has one. Sign up free to download them.

How do I get rid of the Rotato watermark?

Buy a license. A Mac license code removes the red Rotato tag, and a paid Rotato Web plan exports without it. A device released after your update period still shows the watermark until you renew.

Does the Rotato Figma plugin work without the Mac app?

No. The plugin renders through Rotato for Mac, so you need a Mac with the app open. The Wannathis Figma plugin works inside Figma alone.

About Rotato

Rotato is a 3D mockup generator and animator by Otato GmbH in Zurich. It first came out in 2019, under the name Design Camera.

You drop a screenshot or a screen recording onto a 3D phone, tablet, laptop or monitor, set the angle, the light and the backdrop, and export an image or a video. It comes as Rotato for Mac, as Rotato Web in the browser and as a free Figma plugin that works with the Mac app open.

What Rotato does well

You turn a 3D device to any angle and set the camera, the light and the backdrop yourself.
You can animate it on a timeline or start from a ready video template, then export a video.
A screen recording plays on the device, and the Mac app mirrors your iPhone over a cable.
One click renders your screens in every iPhone size the App Store asks for.
You pay once for the Mac app, and it works offline.

Where Rotato falls short

Each render is a device on a backdrop: a color, a gradient, an image or a video. No hand holds it, and no room comes with it.
It makes device mockups only, so a poster, apparel or packaging needs another tool.
You get rendered images and videos, not Figma or PSD files: to change a mockup, you go back to Rotato.
Without a Mac you get neither the app nor the Figma plugin, only Rotato in the browser, which a Mac license does not cover.
A Mac license comes with 6 or 12 months of new devices, and the next ones need a renewal.

When Wannathis is the better pick

If you want your app in a hand, a pocket or a room, start here. Our sets are art-directed as series, so your case study looks premium and consistent all the way through.

If you design in Figma, Pro Access opens the whole library as Figma or PSD files. Our plugin needs no app open beside Figma, on a Mac or a PC.

On Windows nothing changes: drop your screenshot onto a scene marked Edit online in your browser, or use the files in Figma and Photoshop. Our iPhone mockups and MacBook mockups are a good place to start.

When Rotato is the better pick

If you want the phone itself to turn and move in a video, Rotato is made for that. Wannathis has animated scenes too, and they come ready-made. Rotato also saves you time on App Store screenshots, and the Mac app is paid once.
