- Handling pages with lazy-loaded content
- Annotating and editing your captures

Why Use Full Page Screenshots?
Standard screenshots only capture what's visible on your screen. Full page screenshots give you the complete picture. Here's when they're most useful:
Web Design Documentation
Capture entire landing pages, portfolios, or design mockups for client presentations and archives.
Bug Reporting
Show developers exactly what's happening across the entire page, not just a portion of it.
Content Archiving
Save complete articles, receipts, or important web pages before they change or disappear.
Competitive Analysis
Document competitor websites, pricing pages, and marketing strategies for reference.
Good to Know
Full page screenshots work best on static content. For pages with complex animations or infinite scroll, consider using the selected area capture option instead.
