Reviews & Comments of Screengrab! chrome extension

Doesn't work anymore. Used to be a great extension, but yeah it doesn't work at all anymore.

used to work great now it fails at 17% nothing is ever produced

I used to like it, but the author has installed spyware into this addon which tries to report your browsing history without authentication. * discount.s3blog.org * block * dataprovider.biz * block * crvtck.com * block behind-the-scene s3blog.org * block block it with umatrix, etc... and uninstall it and any other made by this author.

It works fine but it apparently has adware. Today is the first time I've seen it but uBlock stopped it from coming up. Details (warning, don't click these links idk what they are but probably bad... for that reason I added [safety-block] in the URLs so someone can't accidentally follow the pages): uBlock Origin has prevented the following page from loading: https://discount.s3blog.[safety-block]org/addon.html?addon=screengrab-fix-version-ch&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgoodsbuy.[safety-block]by%2Fredirect%2Fcpa%2Fo%2Fqey34l53qqocxbskjkeskegrw4s2cghd%2F%3Fsub%3Dscreengrab-fix-version-ch%26to%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ebay.com%252FdealsDCHECK&action=show&domain=www.ebay.com without parameters = https://discount.s3blog.[safety-block]org/addon.html addon = screengrab-fix-version-ch url = https://goodsbuy.[safety-block]by/redirect/cpa/o/qey34l53qqocxbskjkeskegrw4s2cghd/?sub=screengrab-fix-version-ch&to=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2FdealsDCHECK without parameters = https://goodsbuy.[safety-block]by/redirect/cpa/o/qey34l53qqocxbskjkeskegrw4s2cghd/ sub = screengrab-fix-version-ch to = https://www.ebay.com/dealsDCHECK action = show domain = www.ebay.com It will probably be avoidable if you set the add-on to only have permission on a page once you click the icon to use it. But not great for an add-on to be doing that kind of malicious stuff. Update Nov 2021: It hasn't worked at all for months now. It'll scan the page and go to 100% then never actually save, even the copy function doesn't work. So it's literally worthless now - on top of being dangerous.

Just want to echo Michael Howard's review and hope that more comments would bring attention to developer - it has not been working perfectly for awhile when doing anything with full page. Saving "visible page" works but many programs can too including Windows' own tool. This extension had been my go-to tool for screenshots until those stopped working. Please fix.

Also adding here so maybe if enough people say it they will notice but it has not been working for a bit when you try and do a full page or a selection save, the only thing that seems to work is "visible page" and I can do that with a bunch of other programs and in Windows itself. I'll update this when they get it going but right now the entire point of the extension for me is not working and it used to be perfect.

i loved it.. perfect... but all of the sudden stopped working... visible page is fine.. but not taking full page or selective part of the page.. idk what is going on... tried other options.. but they aren't good. Please if this can be resolved

it was working great but recently stopped and am unsure why

Seemingly no matter what I do the extension opens a new tab to it's own page every time I start a new browsing session.

Copy does not copy to clipboard so useless to me

This extension contains spyware. It transmits your browsing and privacy with a sneaky redirect. (ie example below) https://gotbest.by/redirect/cpa/o/qey09270eq5105ztr7tys5zio2embvne/?sub=screengrab-fix-version-ch&to=https%3A%2F%2Fbest.aliexpress.com

Worked well for a while, but now they don't even care. The copy function doesn't copy, the same can be said about the save option. Not going to waste more time reinstalling. This is now officially garbage.

Stopped working today: In console I see: Error in event handler: TypeError: node_current.style.setProperty is not a function at Object.window.screengrab.fixed_elements (chrome-extension://fccdiabakoglkihagkjmaomipdeegbpk/content/page.js:285:24) at Object.window.screengrab.capture_start (chrome-extension://fccdiabakoglkihagkjmaomipdeegbpk/content/page.js:33:20) at chrome-extension://fccdiabakoglkihagkjmaomipdeegbpk/content/page.js:413:23

the copy to clipboard functionality is not working

i like it...thank you..improve your extension.

very very nice. excellent

hope can help me

Always one of the first extensions I install on browsers where it's avaiable =') However, the MHTML saving function no longer works. It's always .TXT. I have to always manually type ".mht".

This App is Live Saver,,Thank You A LOT!!!

Has stopped working in the past week or so. Now if I try to upload a screenshot I just get a Chrome Extension page opening telling me that my file cannot be found because it's been either deleted or moved, and if I try to save a screenshot to my HDD it's just a blank image.

Exactly this one, not any others, deserves the best super handy useful screenshot tool. It comes with every features we love - we need and just that, no junk stuffs. When I switch from Firefox to Chrome, the first extension I find is this. I love love love this so much!!!

Excellent, excellent... some tweaking of the settings and get it to work exactly as you want. I for one do not need all the options available, I strongly urge all users to change the default settings.

After a ton of frustration and soul searching... I've been wondering why when I open shopping sites, a new tab pops up and instantly goes away. After disabling, removing, and reinstalling a fresh copy of chrome... it only happens with screengrab installed! Then to confirm it more, Ublock Origin flags that tab it opens up and asks if I want to temp or perm approve/deny it! I've been using screengrab for over a decade (even on Firefox back in the day). No more! There is NO OPTION to have Screengrab NO LONGER hijack your shopping sites and grab info from them. I reported my findings to Google and submitted an abuse ticket. This crapware is being uninstalled immediately!

goooooooddddddddddddddddddddddddd

My favorite screenshot add-on is Pdf It! on Firefox, but unfortunately it has not been updated to work with the new Web Extensions. While on my main computer I keep an older Firefox browser so it will still work, I couldn't get it to work for my mobile Chromebook. This is the next best add-on that I found. It works nearly the same as Pdf It! and seems to capture the same amount of the screen, and the forced mode can sometimes capture more of the screen than Pdf It! could get. I only have two recommendations for improvement: 1. Remove the scrolling effect. I'm not sure if this is just a Chrome browser effect or not, but the Pdf It! add-on never had to scroll to get a full page screenshot. Scrolling takes up a lot of time and it would be quicker if it took the screenshot without the scrolling. 2. Add an ability to download as PDF. I prefer my screenshots as PDF files. I know there are programs I could use to convert my PNGs from this extension to PDFs, but it would be time-consuming and I wish it was added as an option in this extension to have the PNG converted to a PDF for saving.

Worked great in Firefox, doesn't work in Brave - receive message copied to clipboard, but it doesn't, nothing to paste. Please fix for Brave, used this for years in Firefox.

"copy" doesn't ever actually copy to clipboard. I accidently sent a link to a private sheets page because of this

nice

I have used this for years. This is absolutely the best there is. Tried 8 to 10 others, no comparison! Of course, every new version will suck more, because this is the law of modern times - everything just has to get worse with every update. For this previously great add-on, the new version removed "copy" function of course, which made it so great in the first place, as you could take the screen shot first, then add some fragments using the copy function. Alas! Behold the new.

worked correctly once. otherwise, it loads a ton of garbage that it captures including js files. absolute waste of time and effort.

trash

Worked the first 2 times, hasn't worked since. Not sure why, it's very basic programming and I could make it myself. Kind of embarassing on the developer's part. Oh well, I'll just go with another screen capture function/ -100/5

Great when it decides to work, unfortunately it's not doing that at the moment.

It's quite good but the shortcut function just doesn't work, which was a key feature for me.

Simply does what I want and works. I wanted something that allowed me to press a keyboard shortcut, select an area of the screen to capture, and instantly save that image on the drive. Sounds like a simple request right? Well I can't tell you how long I've been installing and uninstalling extensions that seemed promising but had some small issue that ruined everything. Some of them pop up in a new window to edit, others completely miss what I selected, and others don't work at all. It's ridiculous. Thank you for making one that just works.

I wanted to make a screenshot of a scrolling window. and it worked perfectly well

WONDERFUL, best grabber.

Let Star Explain All Comment

Probably the best screenshot-tool around. I already use it on Firefox and donated because of its quality. Unfortunately on Chrome (here: Vivaldi) it is not able to generate the filename. Seems a Chrome-ralated issue, I see other users having the same problem. Thanks anyway - keep up! And don't sell it!

verry good

Current version has a bug when trying to capture a long screen on a mobile 'Device preview', it repeatedly overlays chunks of the screen grab, resulting in an unusable image.

This is awesome! The only problem that I'm having and I hope you can fix is every time I take a picture and want to save it the file name of the photo is not the title - date, etc. Information that I want.

It does not work properly. Many image segments are switched

The Best Screengrab available. Be sure to change settings to quickly save without prompt. They just need to tweek it and add the extra options that firefox has available.

Can't save a selection - it'll only display half the image I selected & the rest is blank. Frustrating & inconvenient.

just Yo

I have used it for years on Firefox. Last year tried a couple of similar extensions for Chrome - all completely useless. Gave up. Today found out that Screengrab is available for Chrome as well. Gave it a try - works just as expected: fast and smooth. I must confess, it works a little bit less well than on Firefox. When I grab the entire page it scrolls down instead of saving it instantly (as in Firefox), but it works at least. Thank you, Oleksandr!

only one option (visible portion). Also it won't allow you to copy. So for the little it does, there are better choices for chrome. Note: I have it installed on firefox too, and it is much better... it has tons of features. Not in Chrome :-(

Used for Firefox for ages, brilliant... does whats on the packet, Chrome seems the same!

Its really helpful

i can't save a complete page.
