Best Full Page Screenshot Extensions for Chrome
Five extensions compared on what actually matters: capture modes, whether OCR exists at all, what's free versus paywalled, and what happens to your screenshot after you take it.
GoFully
Full page, visible area, and selected-region capture, plus local OCR, annotation, redaction, and a Beautify mode — free, with no account and no premium tier.
- Local WebAssembly OCR, free
- Redaction and Beautify included free
- No account, ever
- 4K UHD / WebP / paginated PDF export
- Newer product, smaller install base
- Chrome, Edge, and Brave only
GoFullPage
The most established one-click full page capture extension, with 11M+ users. Fast and simple, but editing is a paid add-on and OCR doesn't exist.
- Extremely fast one-click capture
- 11M+ users, well-reviewed
- PNG, JPG, and PDF export
- Annotation/editing requires Premium
- No OCR / text extraction
- No visible-area or region capture modes
Awesome Screenshot
A cloud-first capture and screen recording suite built around accounts and team sharing, with a capped free tier.
- Screen recording included
- Direct sharing to Slack, Trello, Drive
- Account required for most features
- No OCR
- $6/mo+ for full annotation and unlimited storage
Nimbus Capture
Now part of the broader FuseBase workspace platform — capture is one piece of a much larger (and pricier) collaboration suite.
- Capture, video recording, and docs in one tool
- Good for teams already using FuseBase
- Pushes account creation immediately
- No OCR
- Pricing now tied to FuseBase's team plans, from ~$5/mo
FireShot
One of the oldest full page capture extensions still active. Reliable core capture, but PDF export, editing, and redaction are all locked behind a one-time Pro purchase.
- Long track record, 5M+ users
- Batch capture and API for automation
- No OCR
- PDF export and annotation require FireShot Pro ($39.95)
- Older, less modern editing UI
Quick answer, by what you need
- Need OCR / text extraction? Only GoFully offers this, free and on-device. None of the other four have it at any price.
- Want to never create an account? GoFully and GoFullPage's core capture both work with zero sign-up; Awesome Screenshot and Nimbus push accounts early.
- Editing sensitive screenshots for compliance or legal use? GoFully's free built-in redaction is the only option that's both free and doesn't require a paid tier.
- Already deep in a team workspace tool? Nimbus/FuseBase or Awesome Screenshot make more sense if you need shared team storage and don't mind the subscription.
