One capture, not a scrolled strip glued together

Free, PNG or JPEG, 1x or 2x, straight to your downloads.

Almost every full-page screenshot tool scrolls down the page taking pictures and glues them together. That approach has three failure modes you will recognise: the sticky header appears four times, lazy-loaded images arrive late and show up half drawn, and the joins are visible if you look.

This captures the page as a single image instead, so none of those happen. It also nudges lazy-loaded images to load before capturing, which is the other half of the problem and the half people forget.

How to use it

  1. Open the page.
  2. Click the icon and pick full page, the visible area, or a region.
  3. Choose PNG or JPEG, and 1x or 2x if you want it retina.
  4. It saves to your downloads folder.

What it can access, and why

FAQ

Why does Chrome say it is being debugged?

Because it genuinely is, for a second or two. The full-page capture interface lives behind Chrome's debugger protocol and there is no other route to it, so the banner appears while the capture happens and goes when it detaches. I would rather you saw the banner and knew why than had it hidden.

Can it capture a very long page?

Yes, though a genuinely enormous page can run into browser memory limits, and at 2x scale that arrives sooner. If a capture comes back blank on a huge page, drop to 1x and it will usually go through.

Does it capture fixed headers correctly?

Yes, once. That is the main thing it does better than a stitching tool, which repeats the header at every scroll boundary.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The capture happens on your machine and the file goes to your downloads folder. There is no server and no network code.
