The Macau International Marathon has been held for over 44 years and each year it attracts hundreds of local, regional and international top long-distance runners to participate. The presence of these international well-known long-distance runners adds to the luster of Macau's sporting enterprise. For the convenience of the participant to obtain the latest information on the event, "Macao International Marathon” has launched the official mobile app. It provides the participants with the event information, course maps and live race results. It also enables the sharing of race information and results through social networking websites.
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 3 screenshots above are Macao Marathon 澳門馬拉松's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: Macao Marathon 澳門馬拉松 runs a light set with one background colour (#F4F4F4) carried across every screenshot — the listing reads as a single poster when the shots sit side by side in search results. The accent colour we picked up, #04542C, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
