Website apps.apple.com
Overview

What it is

This is an interactive demo builder that leverages the Xcode simulator directly from macOS. It capture what you want how you want and allows you to link hotspots (clickable areas) to screens or animations. It then allows you to either export to a self contained html file or publish to a shareable link that you can also embed into any site. This gives your landing page a interactive demo sitting right there for users!

Intent

I need it when

Create shareable portfolio pieces and case studies showcasing completed or in-progress iOS applications

LaunchCut enables indie hackers and developers to export interactive HTML demos or publish via hosted links on demo.launchcut.app. These shareable experiences let portfolio viewers interact with the app in a browser, demonstrating functionality without installation.

Quickly capture and share app animations and scroll interactions during development

LaunchCut supports scroll capturing and animation recording directly from the Simulator. Users can selectively capture screens and animations, then export them as interactive demos—enabling rapid iteration and sharing of specific app behaviors with minimal setup time.

Demonstrate UI flows and user interactions to product managers and designers for early feedback

LaunchCut's interactive flow builder lets users map screens and tap targets into guided experiences. Designers and PMs can click through the demo in a browser to see exactly how the app behaves, making it ideal for presenting UI flows and collecting structured feedback before development completion.

Share interactive iOS app prototypes and work-in-progress demos with stakeholders without requiring TestFlight or device installation

LaunchCut records interactive demos directly from the iOS Simulator and exports them as self-contained HTML files or shareable links. Users can record app flows, map interactive hotspots, and share via browser link instantly—eliminating TestFlight friction and device requirements for feedback collection.

Embed app demos seamlessly into marketing pages, landing pages, and portfolio case studies

LaunchCut Pro offers transparent background export and iframe embedding, allowing developers and marketers to embed interactive demos directly into websites without awkward frames or color matching. Demos adapt to any background design, making them suitable for hero sections and case studies.
