ScreenShotta

About

Capture an entire webpage — instantly, privately, and without setup.

ScreenShotta lets you take full-size screenshots of any webpage with one click or shortcut. No scrolling, no extensions that phone home, and no developer tools required. Everything happens locally, right inside Chrome.

🚀 Why Install ScreenShotta

Because screenshots shouldn’t require scrolling, stitching, or manual DevTools commands. ScreenShotta uses Chrome’s own DevTools Protocol behind the scenes to capture 100% of the page — not just what’s visible on screen.
It’s lightweight, fast, and completely private.

🟢 Key Features

Full-page capture – Instantly screenshot the entire webpage, even beyond the visible viewport.

One-click simplicity – Click the extension icon or use a keyboard shortcut:

Windows/Linux: Alt + Shift + S

macOS: Command + Shift + S

Instant save – Images are automatically stored as PNGs in your default Downloads folder.

Local & private – No servers, no uploads, no tracking — every screenshot is processed locally.

Lightweight – No ads, no analytics, no background memory drain.

🧠 How It Works

ScreenShotta automates Chrome’s hidden “Capture full-size screenshot” feature using the DevTools Protocol. When triggered, it:

Attaches briefly to the active tab using the debugger API.

Measures the page height with Page.getLayoutMetrics.

Captures the full image (Page.captureScreenshot) with captureBeyondViewport: true.

Saves the PNG to your Downloads folder.

Immediately detaches and cleans up.

Everything happens locally — nothing is transmitted, logged, or stored anywhere beyond your computer.

⚙️ Permissions Explained

activeTab – Allows capture only of the tab you’re viewing.

downloads – Saves screenshots directly to your Downloads folder.

debugger – Grants temporary access to Chrome’s internal screenshot command.

These permissions are used only during the capture process and are immediately released afterward.

⚠️ Notes & Limitations

Cannot capture internal Chrome pages (e.g., chrome://, Chrome Web Store, browser settings).

Extremely tall pages may exceed system memory limits.

No user data is ever collected, transmitted, or shared.
