A free, browser-based tool to create realistic Instagram DM screenshots in Instagram's exact dark theme. Add photos, GIFs, voice notes, replies, story replies, reactions, seen receipts and typing dots even the "wants to send you a message" DM request screen. Switch between iPhone and Android frames and edit the whole status bar. Everything runs locally in your browser: nothing is uploaded or saved. Export a clean PNG/JPG or copy to clipboard no watermark, no sign-up.

Top comment

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built this because every "fake DM" generator either slaps a watermark on the export, skips dark mode (which is what most people actually want), or stops at a username and two grey bubbles. This one rebuilds the details that sell the screenshot reactions, replies, the DM request screen, per-platform status bars and keeps everything on-device for privacy. It's completely free. Would love feedback on what Instagram detail I should add next!

Comment highlights

Does the tool stay accurate if Instagram tweaks their dark theme colors in a future app update, or is that something you'd have to manually patch yourself?

Does the iPhone vs Android frame swap actually change the chat bubble styling or just the status bar up top?

How well does it handle different languages and characters outside Latin scripts in the messages? Wondering if RTL languages like Arabic render properly too.

The fact that the typing dots, story replies, and that "wants to send you a message" screen all match Instagram's exact dark theme is honestly impressive, really feels like pulling up the real app.
