Four capture modes

Choose exactly how much of the webpage you want.

Screen capture does not always mean the same thing. Sometimes you need the current browser view. Sometimes you need everything below the fold. Sometimes you only need one component.

↕

Full Page

Automatically move through the webpage and stitch the captured areas into one continuous long screenshot.

▣

Visible Screen · Free

Capture the current browser viewport exactly as it appears when you need a fast screenshot of what is on screen now.

⌗

Select Area · Free

Drag over a precise rectangle and capture only the region that matters for a bug, design review or documentation step.

▱

Responsive · Free

Apply a tablet or phone viewport preset before capturing the complete responsive page.

Screenshots and local screen recording.

Yes. Version 5.10.7 includes screen recording. Open More, then Record, and choose This tab, Window, or Screen. No account is needed. Recordings stay on your computer and are not uploaded. Microphone, webcam, and tab audio stay off until you turn them on. Free records up to 5 minutes at up to 1080p, with local recordings, no watermark, MP4 download, and basic start/end trim. Pro has no time limit, can ask for 1440p or 4K when the shared screen is that large, can export GIF export, drawing annotations, and can remove a middle section. Pro can draw on a shared tab with pen, arrow, box, circle, highlighter, and text, and can save WebM or MP4 when this Chrome can write it.

After the capture

Turn a screen capture into something people can act on.

Instead of stopping at a raw screenshot, Capture gives you the tools to explain, protect, compare and present what you captured.

Annotate

Add arrows, boxes, circles, highlights, pen strokes and formatted text directly on the captured image.

Blur & Pixelate

Mask email addresses, customer details, account information and other content before sharing a screenshot.

Crop Long Captures

Use Fit Page, Fit Width and exact crop controls when a scrolling screen capture is thousands of pixels tall.

Compare Versions

Use Before / After, reveal, side-by-side and visual difference detection to review webpage changes.

Create Review Reports

Turn numbered callouts, issue notes, priorities and screenshots into structured professional review reports.

Export Clearly

Copy an image, download WebP or PNG, or create a professional PDF for QA, documentation or client review.

More than a browser viewport screenshot

A practical screen capture workflow for websites.

Capture content below the fold

A normal operating-system screenshot captures only what currently fits on the display. A Chrome screen capture extension can work with the webpage itself, making it possible to capture a long page that continues below the visible browser window.

Capture one problem instead of the whole page

When reporting a broken form, spacing issue or UI component, a selected region can communicate the problem faster than a huge screenshot.

Capture responsive layouts

Capture can also use responsive viewport presets for desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile widths. The webpage is allowed to react to the viewport before capture rather than simply shrinking a desktop image.

Edit before you share

A good screen capture workflow should not require opening a second application just to point at a button, highlight text or hide personal information. Capture includes those editing tools in the same workflow.

Keep evidence for QA and review

Metadata, numbered callouts, Before / After comparison and visual differences make a screenshot more useful as evidence during testing and website review.

Export for the destination

Copy Image is useful for chat, email and documents. WebP and PNG work well for image files. Professional PDF is useful when multiple screenshots, notes and review context need to travel together.

⌂

Your webpage capture can stay on your computer.

Normal capture, stitching, annotation, blur, pixelate and local export are designed to run on your computer. Screenshot image content does not need to be uploaded to RATdeck just to create or edit a capture. Account and subscription checks are separate from screenshot image processing.

Screen Capture Extension FAQ

Common questions about capturing webpages in Chrome.

What is a screen capture Chrome extension?+

It is a browser extension that captures visual content from a Chrome tab. Depending on the tool, this can include the visible viewport, a selected region or an entire scrolling page.

Does Capture record screen video?+

Yes. Version 5.10.7 includes screen recording. Open More, then Record, and choose This tab, Window, or Screen. No account is needed. Recordings stay on your computer and are not uploaded. Microphone, webcam, and tab audio stay off until you turn them on. Free records up to 5 minutes at up to 1080p, with local recordings, no watermark, MP4 download, and basic start/end trim. Pro has no time limit, can ask for 1440p or 4K when the shared screen is that large, can export GIF export, drawing annotations, and can remove a middle section. Pro can draw on a shared tab with pen, arrow, box, circle, highlighter, and text, and can save WebM or MP4 when this Chrome can write it.

Why does my screen recording have no sound?+

Chrome includes only the audio you choose in its sharing picker. Tick Share tab audio when you share a tab, or Share system audio when you share a window or screen, and unmute the tab. If you want your voice, allow the microphone when Chrome asks and leave it unmuted. In Capture, microphone, webcam, and tab audio stay off until you turn them on. From version 5.10.6 you can mute or unmute the microphone while recording. On macOS, Chrome limits system audio capture, so a window or screen recording may not include computer sound.

Can I mute my microphone while recording?+

Yes. From version 5.10.6 you can mute or unmute your microphone while recording. Microphone, webcam, and tab audio stay off until you turn them on.

Will the recorder show up in my recording?+

No. From version 5.10.6, when you start recording from a normal tab, the recorder opens in its own small recorder window and Capture hides itself before recording starts, so it does not appear in the video.

How do I save a screen recording as MP4?+

Stop the recording, then use the Save video button under playback. Capture saves MP4, or WebM when MP4 is not available. On Free, a recording is up to 5 minutes at up to 1080p, with no watermark, MP4 download, and basic start/end trim. Pro has no time limit and can also export GIF.

Can Capture take a full-page screen capture in Chrome?+

Yes. Full Page mode automatically moves through the webpage and stitches the captured regions into one continuous image.

Can I edit the screen capture before downloading it?+

Yes. The built-in editor includes arrows, shapes, text, highlights, pen, blur, pixelate, numbered callouts, crop, undo and redo.

Does Capture upload my screen captures?+

Normal screenshot capture, stitching, annotation and local export are designed to happen on your computer. Account and subscription communication is separate and does not require uploading the screenshot image itself.

Can I use Capture for responsive website testing?+

Yes. Responsive capture supports desktop, laptop, tablet, mobile and custom viewport sizes so the website can respond to the target viewport before capture.

What formats can I use after screen capture?+

You can copy the image and use WebP, PNG and professional PDF workflows depending on the feature and plan.
