Paste the address of a public page to take a website screenshot. A headless Chrome browser loads it, scrolls through it so lazy images appear, then captures it as PNG or JPG. You choose the width, desktop or mobile view, and full page or visible screen only. The image isn't stored after you download it.

📌 Key facts

  • The tool takes a website screenshot of any public page from its URL and saves it as PNG or JPG.
  • A headless Chrome browser on a server loads the page, and the image is not kept after you download it.
  • Available widths are 768, 1280 and 1920 px, in desktop view or mobile view (a 390 px phone screen).
  • A full-page capture is capped at 12,000 px tall.
  • Limits: 25 seconds per capture and 12 captures per hour per person.

How to screenshot a web page

  1. Paste the page address.
  2. Choose the format (crisp PNG, light JPG), the window width, and whether you want the full page or just the first visible screen.
  3. Click the button: a preview shows up in 5 to 20 seconds with a download button.

The browser scrolls the page before capturing so lazy-loaded images appear. Sticky menus can show up in the middle of the image.

Safety and limits

Only public http or https pages on ports 80 and 443 are accepted. Local or private addresses (localhost, 127.x, 10.x, 192.168.x, 169.254.x, local IPv6) are refused, including after a redirect. Limits: 25 seconds and 12 captures per hour per person. Pages that need a login show their login screen.

Website screenshot ideas that save time

A website screenshot records what a page looks like today. For example, you may want to show a page to a client, save a price or illustrate a tutorial. Then you download the image and send it.

  • Design review: grab the full page and share it with the whole team.
  • Mobile check: pick mobile view to see how the page fits a phone.
  • Dated proof: keep the image with the date in the file name.
  • Tutorial: use screen only for a light image that focuses on the top of the page.

How to get a clean screenshot of a site

First, pick the right format. PNG keeps text sharp, while JPG makes a smaller file. Then set the width for the device you want to show.

GoalFormatWidthRange
Client documentPNG1280 pxFull page
Blog imageJPG1280 pxScreen only
Phone testPNGMobileFull page
Large monitorPNG1920 pxScreen only

If images look missing, run the capture again, because the page may have loaded slowly. On a very long site, the 12,000 px cap cuts off the bottom.

What to do with your screenshot next

After the capture, shrink the file with compress image. To keep the page as a document, use HTML to PDF instead. If you want one file that holds several pictures, try JPG to PDF.

Do you already have a PDF? Then PDF to JPG works the other way. Finally, add a QR code to your slide so people can open the page you captured.

Common problems with a website screenshot

A website screenshot fails for the same few reasons. First, the address needs a login, so you get the login page. Then the page loads its images too late. Finally, a sticky menu repeats in the middle of the picture.

ProblemLikely causeWhat to do
Address refusedLocal or private addressUse a public page
Picture too shortScreen only selectedPick the full page
Text too small1920 px widthPick 1280 px
Long waitVery heavy pageTry again a little later

So a website screenshot of a login-only page needs another route. Instead, save the screen from your own browser. Also remember that this tool allows 12 captures per hour, so plan your tries.

Also, name each file with the site and the date, for example by renaming it after the download.

3 real-life examples

1

Show a client what a site looks like

You capture the home page at 1920 px, full page, as PNG: the image is about 1920 × 5000 px. You can email it or attach it to a report.

2

Check the mobile layout

With the mobile option on, the capture is 390 px wide (780 px at high density) and shows the phone version of the page, with the "hamburger" menu.

3

Keep dated proof

A sale price disappears the next day. You capture the visible screen as JPG, which keeps the displayed price. Note the date yourself, it is not printed on the image.

Frequently asked questions

How do I take a screenshot of a website?
Paste the address, choose the format and width, then click the button. The server opens the page in Chrome and sends back a PNG or JPG image.
Can I capture the full page?
Yes, it is the default. Height is capped at 12,000 pixels. For the visible screen only, choose "screen only".
Why are some images missing?
Some load only after a click or a long delay. The tool scrolls the page to trigger them, but a few can stay missing. Try again or capture the visible screen only.
Why is my URL rejected?
Local or private addresses, addresses with a username, and ports other than 80 and 443 are blocked to stop access to internal networks. Only public pages go through.
Is the image stored on your servers?
No. It is deleted as soon as you receive it. The address you type is not saved either.
