We often take screenshots of web pages that contain valuable content. Built-in screenshot tools, third-party software, and even some social apps can help to capture the current screen and preserve all the information for future reference or share it effectively with others. Do you know how to capture the entire web page screenshot?
This article shares several effective methods to take a screenshot of an entire web page. Whether you want to screenshot a scrolling page on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, or another web browser you are using, you can find a preferred tool.
If you prefer a one-for-all screen capture tool that can take screenshots of entire web pages in all browsers, try using the popular Aiseesoft Screen Recorder. As a famous video, audio, and screenshot capture software, it gives a simple way to take full-page screenshots on all browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and others. More importantly, it can capture the highest-quality screenshots based on your monitor or phone’s screen.

Besides capturing entire web page on Mac and PC, this all-featured screen capture software also enables you to take screenshots on your iPhone or Android phone. It lets you easily mirror your phone’s screen to a computer and then record activities or capture the web page and other screen content.
Both Mac and Windows computers have built-in tools for taking screenshots. However, you are only allowed to capture the current screen. If you are using a Mac, you are allowed to record the entire web page as a video. Again, you can’t take a screenshot of a scrolling web page.
There is a general way to capture the full web page on any browser and any devices:
Some modern browsers like Google Chrome offer a hidden screenshot tool that can screenshot a rolling web page. For instance, you can rely on the Developer Tools in Google Chrome to directly capture a full-size screenshot.
The Mozilla Firefox browser is designed with a handy tool for taking the entire webpage screenshots.
Whether you use the Microsoft Edge browser on a Windows PC or Mac, you can directly take a full-page screenshot.
Safari also offers a quick snapshot tool to capture full webpage in its developer tool. It may take some more steps than on Windows.
To easily capture a full-page screenshot on your browser, you can also rely on associated extensions. Compared with built-in screenshot tools, these browser extensions often offer additional features for customization and editing. You can easily search for and access a desired extension from the web store. Some popular ones include GoFullPage, FireShot, Full Page Screen Capture, and more.
I would like to use the compelling GoFullPage as an example to show you how to capture a full-page screenshot on Chrome. When you locate it in the Chrome Web Store, click the Add to Chrome button.
When you are on the right web page you want to capture, click the top Extensions button and then select the GoFullPage extension. It will start to take a screenshot of the entire web page. After that, you have options to edit the screenshot and download it in the correct format, such as PNG, JPEG, or PDF.
More than half of web browsing happens on mobile devices. Fortunately, both iOS and Android have introduced native features to help you capture scrolling web pages without needing third-party apps.
If you are using an iPhone or iPad, the built-in Safari browser offers a hidden but highly effective way to capture a complete webpage and save it as a PDF document.
Most modern Android devices (like Samsung, Google Pixel, and OnePlus) have a built-in scrolling screenshot feature that stitches the webpage together automatically.
Question 1. How do you take a screenshot of a scrolling page in Chrome?
While Google Chrome doesn't offer a direct "scrolling screenshot" button in its standard menu, you can actually capture full pages using its built-in Developer Tools (no extension required). Alternatively, for a more user-friendly experience, you can use a related screen-capturing extension to take a screenshot of the entire web page.
Question 2. How to screenshot a full webpage on an iPhone?
When you need to screenshot a full webpage on your iPhone, you can take the common way to capture the current screen first. For instance, you can quickly press the Side button and the Volume Up (Home) button at the same time to take a screenshot. You will see a thumbnail of the screenshot appear in the bottom left corner. Tap it to access editing options. Tap Full Page and then view the entire webpage. Tap Save in the upper-left corner to store the full-page screenshot. This method works well in the default Safari browser.
Question 3. How do I screenshot a whole page in Chrome without an extension?
As I mentioned above, you can rely on an extension to easily screenshot a whole page in Chrome. Without an extension, you can use its built-in Developer Tools to capture a screenshot of the entire webpage in Chrome.
Press Ctrl + Shift + I on Windows or Command + Option + I on Mac to access the Developer Tools. Then, Ctrl + Shift + P or Command + Shift + P to display the Command Menu. After that, type in screenshot and choose Capture full size screenshot. The captured scrolling page will be saved as a PNG image.
Conclusion
Taking a screenshot of the entire webpage doesn't have to be complicated. If you only need to capture a scrolling webpage occasionally, relying on the built-in Developer Tools in Chrome or Safari, or using native mobile features on your iPhone and Android, is completely free and effective.
However, if your daily work requires frequently capturing entire web pages, adding annotations, or even recording screen activities in high quality, a dedicated tool like Aiseesoft Screen Recorder is highly recommended. It bypasses the limitations of browsers and provides a much more stable, all-in-one solution for both Windows and Mac users.
