About PixelDM

PixelDM is a free, browser-based tool for creating realistic mockups of chat and direct-message screenshots across popular apps. It exists to make it easy for content creators, designers, marketers, educators, and everyday users to produce example conversations without exposing real private messages.

What this tool is for

Everything you create here is a mockup — an image you design yourself. Common, legitimate uses include content and meme creation, storyboarding social campaigns, App Store and Play Store screenshot design, teaching and training material, UI design references, and lighthearted jokes clearly understood by everyone involved to be fake.

What it is not

PixelDM does not send messages, does not connect to any messaging service, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Instagram, Snapchat, WhatsApp, Meta, Apple, Telegram, Discord, or any other platform. Product names and logos are the property of their respective owners and are referenced only to describe the look our mockups imitate.

Please use it responsibly

Do not use generated images to impersonate real people, deceive, harass, defraud, or spread misinformation. Doing so may be illegal and violates our Terms of Service.

Privacy first

The generator runs entirely in your browser. Photos and avatars you add are never uploaded to a server, and nothing you create is stored after you close the tab. See our Privacy Policy for details.
