How to Take a Full Page Screenshot in Chrome, Edge and Brave

To take a full page screenshot in Chrome without an extension, press Ctrl + Shift + I to open DevTools, press Ctrl + Shift + P, type "full size" and choose Capture full size screenshot. Chrome saves the whole page as a PNG in Downloads; on Mac use Cmd + Option + I, then Cmd + Shift + P. For weekly captures or apps like Gmail, an extension is more reliable.

How do I take a full page screenshot in Chrome or Brave?

Use the DevTools Command Menu: three shortcuts, no install. Brave is Chromium-based, so the steps are identical.

1. Let the page load. If images load on scroll, scroll to the bottom once and back.
2. Press Ctrl + Shift + I (Cmd + Option + I on Mac; F12 also works on most Windows keyboards).
3. Press Ctrl + Shift + P (Cmd + Shift + P). Click inside DevTools first if nothing happens.
4. Type "screenshot" and choose Capture full size screenshot. The PNG downloads at once.

The same menu has Capture screenshot (visible area), Capture area screenshot and Capture node screenshot. For a mobile-width capture at 390 pixels, turn on the device toolbar (Ctrl + Shift + M) and use its three-dot menu, per Chrome's device mode guide.

How do I take a full page screenshot in Edge?

Press Ctrl + Shift + S and choose the full-page option. Edge scrolls, opens a preview you can draw on, then saves or copies it.

• The tool is called Screenshot (formerly Web Capture); it is also under Settings and more.
• If it is missing on a work computer, an admin may have disabled it with the WebCaptureEnabled policy. The DevTools method works in Edge too.

Which extensions take full page screenshots?

Extensions handle sticky headers, inner scroll panels and PDF export better than DevTools.

• GoFullPage: press Alt + Shift + P; download PNG, JPEG or PDF. Free capture; editing is a paid add-on.
• FireShot: best for a PDF with clickable links.
• Awesome Screenshot: best when you also annotate, blur or record video.
• SuperCommands: free and open source; see the example below. Prices: best full page screenshot extensions.

SuperCommands worked example: press Alt + S, type "full page", choose Capture Full Page, then pick PDF, PNG or JPG. The overlay closes first, so it never appears in the shot.

• Capture Screenshot saves the visible area as PNG to Downloads.
• Clip & Download Screenshot also copies the PNG to the clipboard, ready to paste into a Jira ticket.
• Capture Element saves one clicked element, such as a pricing card, as PNG.

Type the command name, since prefixes can change (screenshot docs). Download All Images is covered in how to download all images from a website.

Why is my full page screenshot blank or cut off?

• Blank or grey sections: scroll to the bottom slowly, return to the top, capture again.
• Header repeated down the page: close cookie bars and chat widgets, or use GoFullPage, which hides most fixed elements after the first slice.
• Only one screen captured: the page scrolls inside a panel (Gmail, Notion, dashboards); use an extension.
• Huge or blurry file: capture at 100% zoom (Ctrl + 0); export long pages as PDF.

Which one should you pick?

• Pick DevTools if you capture a normal page in Chrome or Brave a few times a month.
• Pick Edge's Screenshot tool if you use Edge and want to draw on the result.
• Pick GoFullPage if you capture web apps with inner scroll panels.
• Pick SuperCommands if you want screenshots, clipboard copies and image downloads from one Alt + S bar.
