Capturing

Capture modes and how to use them

Snap the visible area, drag out a selection, grab a full scrolling page, or capture your whole desktop.

The capture modes

Open the extension popup and pick a mode under Capture:

Visible area

Snaps exactly what's on screen right now. The fastest, everyday capture.

Selected area

Drag a rectangle over just the part you want. Great for cropping to a single element without editing afterwards.

Full page

Captures the entire scrolling page — CaptureWizard scrolls it for you and stitches everything into one tall image. Perfect for long articles, threads and dashboards. Very long or lazy-loading pages take a moment while everything renders. Pro

Delayed

Starts a short countdown before capturing, so you can open a menu, tooltip or hover state that would otherwise disappear.

Desktop

Captures a window or your whole screen rather than the web page — useful for other apps.

After you capture

Every capture opens in the editor, where you can annotate and redact, then copy, download or share it.
