> How to take a full page screenshot in Chrome with DevTools, in Edge with Ctrl+Shift+S, and in Brave, plus extension options and fixes for common problems.

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](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/device-mode).

> **Note:** Brave Nightly is testing a toolbar Screenshot button with a Full page option, per [PiunikaWeb's September 2026 report](https://piunikaweb.com/2026/09/01/brave-upgrades-built-in-screenshot-tools/). It is unclear whether it scrolls long pages, so use DevTools for now.

## 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](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-browser-policies/webcaptureenabled). 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](https://supercommands.com/blogs/best-full-page-screenshot-extensions-chrome-edge-brave).

**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](https://supercommands.com/docs/screenshot-commands)). **Download All Images** is covered in [how to download all images from a website](https://supercommands.com/blogs/how-to-download-all-images-from-any-website-at-once).

## 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.

> **Tip:** Log in with a test account or mask data before capturing anything that goes into a shared ticket.

## 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.
