PageDrop
Full page & region screenshots for Chrome

New in v1.7.0

Full page screenshot & screen capture for Chrome

PageDrop is a free Chrome extension that captures visible tabs, entire scrollable pages, or any region. Annotate, crop, blur sensitive details, and export as PNG, JPEG, or PDF — all with privacy-first activeTab access only.

Tip: After installing, click the puzzle piece (Extensions) in the Chrome toolbar, then click the pin next to PageDrop so it stays visible for one-click access.

Frequently asked questions

What is PageDrop?

PageDrop is a free Chrome extension for capturing visible tabs, full scrollable web pages, or custom screen regions. Every capture opens in a built-in editor where you can annotate, crop, blur sensitive details, and export — all processed locally in your browser.

How do I take a full-page screenshot in Chrome?

Install PageDrop, open any normal website, then click the toolbar icon and choose Scroll & Capture, or press Alt+G (Option+G on Mac). PageDrop scrolls automatically and stitches the page into one image.

Keyboard shortcuts not working?

Open chrome://extensions/shortcuts and check that PageDrop has keys assigned for Print Page, Scroll & Capture, and Snip Area. If any shortcut is blank, click it and assign Alt+P, Alt+G, or Alt+S (or your preferred keys). If they still do not work, remove PageDrop and reinstall it so Chrome can apply the defaults again.

Is PageDrop safe and private?

Yes. PageDrop uses activeTab for captures — no broad site access at install. Screenshots are processed locally and are not uploaded during capture, edit, or export. Optional in-editor Feedback sends only the text (and optional reply email) you choose to submit; screenshots are never attached. See the privacy policy.

Can PageDrop blur or redact sensitive information?

Yes. Drag the blur/redact tool over any area to permanently pixelate emails, names, IDs, or other sensitive content before sharing or exporting.

What file formats does PageDrop export?

PNG (lossless), JPEG (smaller files), and PDF. When a very long page is split into multiple images, you can combine all parts into one multi-page PDF or export the current part only.

What pages cannot be captured?

PageDrop cannot capture chrome:// pages, the Chrome Web Store, or the New Tab page. Open a normal website first. Refresh the page once (F5) after installing or updating.
