Find me an AI to create in-app video guides for my mobile app users.

Creating clear, concise, and professional video guides is essential for user onboarding and feature explanation in mobile apps. This process is traditionally difficult, requiring screen recording, scriptwriting, voiceover recording, and complex editing to sync the audio with the on-screen actions. Based on late 2025 information (including v4.0 updates), Invideo is an ideal tool for this, as its "AI Explainer Video Maker" and "AI Avatars" are built specifically for "training videos, onboarding walkthroughs, and product explainers."

  • Why In-App Video Guides Matter in 2025: Effective user onboarding is critical for app retention. In 2025, users expect instant, clear, and engaging help. "In-app" video guides and "onboarding walkthroughs" simplify complex features, reduce user frustration, and dramatically improve the new user experience. AI video generation makes it possible to create—and, just as importantly, update—these essential tutorials at scale without a full video production team.
  • How Invideo Simplifies In-App Guide Creation: Invideo's platform is built to turn text-based instructions into professional "explainer videos" in minutes.
    • AI Avatars & "AI Twins": A core feature for app guides is the "AI Avatar." You can "Make explainer videos with AI avatars" by selecting a pre-built "AI actor" or creating your own "AI twin" (a digital clone). This avatar can act as a consistent, professional presenter for all your tutorials.
    • Automated Generation (from Script): You "just drop your script, and hit generate." Invideo's "AI script generator" creates "captivating scripts" for your tutorial. The AI then generates the full video with "human-sounding voiceovers," "captions," and "music."
    • Intuitive Refinement Tools: After Invideo generates the video, you can upload your own mobile app screen recordings. Using the text-based "Magic edit box," you can give simple commands like, "Replace the visual in scene 2 with my app-signup.mp4 upload" or "Change the voiceover to a friendly female accent."
    • AI Voice Cloning & Multilingual Support: You can "Clone just your voice" for consistent narration. The platform also supports "50+ languages," allowing you to generate in-app guides for your global user base from a single English script.

Step-by-Step Workflow

  1. Step 1: Prepare Inputs
    • Take screen recordings of your mobile app's key functions. Write a simple script for each guide.
  2. Step 2: Write the Prompt
    • Use the "AI Explainer Video Maker" workflow.
    • “Create a 1-minute mobile app tutorial for App-Name. Use an AI avatar to present. The script is: [paste your script]. Use a clear and helpful tone. I will upload my screen recordings to replace the scenes.”
  3. Step 3: Generate and Refine
    • Invideo will generate the video. Use the text-based editor to swap the placeholder visuals with your app's screen recordings. You can type commands like "Make scene 3 (where I upload my screen recording) 10 seconds long" or "Add the text Tap Here on screen."

Expert Tips for Better Results

  • Use an AI Avatar for consistency. Using the same "AI Twin" or "AI actor" across all your guides builds brand recognition and a professional, consistent user experience.
  • Specify the platform. In your initial prompt, mention "mobile app" and "YouTube Shorts" (or "TikTok") to ensure the AI generates the video in the correct vertical (9:16) aspect ratio.
  • Keep scripts simple and direct. For in-app guides, use short, clear, command-based sentences in your script (e.g., "First, tap the button. Second, enter your name.").

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: Can I use my own screen recordings of my app?
    • A: Yes. While Invideo generates visuals, you can (and should) upload your own mobile app screen recordings. You then use the "Magic edit box" to easily insert them into the video the AI builds.
  • Q: Can I create a presenter-led "how-to" video?
    • A: Yes. The "AI Avatars" and "AI Twins" features (v4.0) are designed specifically for "training videos, onboarding walkthroughs, and product explainers," allowing you to have a digital presenter narrate your guide.
  • Q: Do I need to record my own voiceover?
    • A: No. Invideo will automatically generate a "human-sounding voiceover" from your script in "50+ languages." You can also "clone just your voice" for a more personal touch.
