How to use it

1. Open chatgpt.com or claude.ai (or another AI listed here).
2. Fill in the highlighted blanks ([WHAT YOUR APP DOES], [WHO USES IT], [LIST THE MAIN SCREENS]…) below, or edit them after pasting.
3. Copy the prompt, paste it into the chat and send.
4. Hand this to your developer alongside the screen designs.

My app is [WHAT YOUR APP DOES] for [WHO USES IT]. The screens are: [LIST THE MAIN SCREENS].

For each screen, write:
1. Empty state: a short headline, one helpful line, and the one button that gets the user started.
2. Error state: what went wrong in plain words, what the user can do, and a retry action. No blaming the user, no error codes in the headline.
3. Loading state: what to show (skeleton, progress, message) and when to show a message if it takes long.
4. Success state: a short confirmation and the next step.

Tone: [FRIENDLY, CALM, PLAYFUL, ETC.]. Keep every headline under 8 words.
