Item media 1 (screenshot) for Schnippi - Screenshot Tool

Take a screenshot of your selected area and download or copy & paste it into your favorite app.

- Capture the full view port, any rectangular region or precisely select the element you want to capture. - Download your screenshots or copy them to the clipboard. - Copy and paste your screenshot as HTML containing a link back to the captured page. This helps you to keep track of your sources and getting back to the captured page later if needed. Many apps such as Google Docs and GMail, Apple Notes and Pages, Microsoft OneNote and Word and any many more are supported. - Copy and paste your screenshots as plain PNG or data URL. - The extension is designed to be shortcut first, with a graphical user interface that gets out of your way but is there when if you need it. - No screenshots or any other data is uploaded or collected, everything stays 100% on your computer. (Of course if you paste your screenshot into an external app, it is most likely uploaded to a server of that app). - No AI "features". - 100% free, you can donate, but that's up to you.
