Take Screenshot

Press “Take Screenshot” and choose the entire screen, a program window, or a browser tab in the browser dialog. Right after the shot, select the part you need with the mouse: the rest gets cut off. Already have a screenshot copied? Press Ctrl+V anywhere on the page, and it opens here.

Annotations on the shot

• Arrow and frame show where to look.
• Text: click the shot, type, press Enter. The label gets an outline in a contrasting color and stays readable on any background.
• Blur hides a password, card number, or someone else’s chat. The area turns into large squares, and no text can be recovered from them.

An extra annotation comes off with Ctrl+Z. The finished shot is copied with a button or Ctrl+C and pasted into a chat, email, or document; Ctrl+S saves a PNG.

Timer

Dropdown menus and tooltips disappear while you press the button. Set the timer to 3, 5, or 10 seconds, pick a screen, and open what you want to capture: the countdown runs in the browser tab title.

On a phone

Mobile and tablet browsers cannot capture the screen. Take the shot with your phone’s buttons and open it here: cropping, labels, and blur work the same way.

To capture a page by its URL, with the full scroll, use the online website screenshot tool.
