ClickSnap is a free Chrome extension that captures an entire scrolling web page as one clean image. Annotate it, blur private details, add a frame and export it, all without anything being uploaded.
Three steps, about ten seconds. No sign-up, no watermark, nothing uploaded.
Install it from the Chrome Web Store. There’s no account to create.
Alt Shift F (Option Shift F on a Mac), or click the ClickSnap icon and choose Full Page. ClickSnap scrolls the page and stitches it into one image, hiding sticky headers as it goes.
Add arrows, numbered steps and text, blur anything private, then copy it to the clipboard or export PNG, JPG or WebP at up to 2× resolution.
Pick a tool and drag on the canvas: arrows, numbered steps, text, blur and highlights. Change the background, then copy or download the result.
Everything happens in your browser, from the scroll capture to the final export.
ClickSnap hides fixed and sticky elements while it scrolls, trims the overlap between slices and puts everything back afterwards, so navbars appear once at the top instead of on every slice. It works on long apps like Gmail and Notion too.
Click Find private data and ClickSnap reads the screenshot on your computer, spots emails, API keys, tokens and card numbers, and offers to pixelate them. Or drag a box or brush over anything yourself. Every edit can be undone.
Click Copy text and ClickSnap reads every word in the screenshot with an OCR engine that runs on your computer, then copies it for you. Handy for error messages, code, tables and anything you can’t select on the page.
Wrap a capture in a macOS Safari window or an iPhone frame on one of 12 gradient backgrounds, pick an aspect ratio, and it’s ready for X, LinkedIn, Product Hunt or your docs.
Every capture is saved in your browser’s own storage, with no account and no upload. Find old screenshots, reopen them in the editor or export them again, even offline.

Yes. ClickSnap is 100% free to install and use, with no account, no subscription, no watermarks and no limits on how many screenshots you capture.
Install ClickSnap from the Chrome Web Store, open the page you want, and press Alt+Shift+F (Option+Shift+F on a Mac), or click the ClickSnap icon and choose Full Page. ClickSnap scrolls the page, stitches every section into one image and opens it in the editor.
Before scrolling each section, ClickSnap temporarily hides fixed and sticky elements such as navbars and cookie bars, calculates exact slice offsets, and stitches the final image so the header appears once at the top instead of on every slice.
No. Screenshots, annotations, recordings and history are stored only on your own computer, in your browser’s IndexedDB. The extension sends nothing to any server: no images, no usage data.
Yes. Drag a box or brush over anything private and choose blur or pixelate. The covered pixels are replaced in the exported image. For text such as keys and passwords, pixelate at a high strength is the safest choice.
Yes. Click Copy text in the editor and ClickSnap reads every word in the screenshot with an offline OCR engine that runs on your computer, so nothing is uploaded. Find private data uses the same text to spot emails, API keys and card numbers and offers to pixelate them. Text recognition is English-only for now.
Yes. ClickSnap can record a browser tab, a window or your whole screen, with optional audio, and save it as a WebM video. Recordings are kept locally in your browser.
ClickSnap exports lossless PNG, JPG or WebP with adjustable quality, or PDF, at 0.5× to 4× the captured resolution. You can also copy the image straight to the clipboard.
By default, Alt+Shift+F captures the full page, Alt+Shift+V the visible area, Alt+Shift+A a selected area and Alt+Shift+S opens the menu (Option instead of Alt on a Mac). You can change them at chrome://extensions/shortcuts.
Yes. Capture, editing, framing, redaction and history all run client-side with Canvas and IndexedDB, so ClickSnap works without an internet connection.
ClickSnap is built by Sarangan Raviraj (founder and lead extension architect) and Sahana Ravichandran (product and UX engineer).
Free, with no account and no watermark. Your screenshots stay on your computer.
