Mockey AI: Free Plan, Exports and Alternatives

Mockey is worth considering when you need mockups across clothing, packaging, print and devices. Its free plan is a way to try the workflow, but it has download and usage limits. For an app presentation, compare the phone scene and finished file you need before choosing a tool.

What is free in Mockey?

Mockey’s current pricing page lists three downloads per day, JPG files and personal use on the Free plan. Its getting-started guide says an account is required, including for the free tier.

The Starter plan adds commercial use, unlimited downloads, PNG and higher-quality download options. AI tools and credit allowances vary by plan. Check the current plan details before using an export for a client or business; free access to a template is not the same as unrestricted usage rights.

Templates and AI generation are different workflows

Mockey’s product page describes a template workflow: choose a mockup, upload your artwork and adjust its placement. It also offers separate AI tools for generating or changing images.

For an existing app screen or logo, start by evaluating a template that fits your design. If you need a new scene from a prompt, evaluate the AI workflow and its credit requirements separately. Do not assume every Mockey export generates a new scene, or that template downloads include unlimited AI generation.

Check the downloaded file

The free plan’s JPG export includes a background. Paid PNG access can matter when your destination needs that format, but a PNG file does not automatically have a transparent background. Confirm the selected tool’s background options and inspect the actual download.

Before choosing a plan, test one representative design:

• Read small text: inspect navigation labels and fine lines at the size you will publish.
• Check the crop: make sure screen corners and important controls remain visible.
• Check dimensions: compare the downloaded pixel dimensions with your final layout.
• Check the background: decide whether you want a finished scene or a cutout to place elsewhere.

A mockup image is only one part of an App Store screenshot or presentation. You may still need to assemble the surrounding layout and export it at the destination’s required dimensions.

When to choose Mockup Freak instead

Mockup Freak is an option when you want your app screenshot inside a ready-made phone scene. Select a composition, upload the screen and download the result. The scene stays fixed, so choose one whose setting and camera angle already suit your layout.

Our production editor exports a flattened JPG with the scene background. It does not provide editable layers or a transparent phone cutout. Pixel dimensions depend on the scene. Selected free scenes work without an account, and pricing covers paid options.

Try Balcony Breeze with the screenshot you intend to present. The upload-to-download walkthrough includes an original practice screen and before-and-after examples if you want to test the process first.

Choose Mockey when its product range and plan features fit your work. Choose Mockup Freak when you want a specific phone scene with a straightforward JPG workflow. If you need to design the whole presentation around the mockup, our Canva and Placeit comparison covers those alternatives.
