What's nice is that you aren't confined to webpages. You can upload images from your computer to get a share link too. Notice the upper options after you click the icon to choose between capture and record. You can upload to your Google Drive for free!

Among other options, it can take a screenshot of an entire web page, which is important for me, and save it as a picture or an a PDF document.

The only thing I find a pity is that it can't split the PDF into pages like FireShot Pro, but only creates a single scrollable page.

I've used Awesome Screenshot for years. I particularly liked that it would snap an entire website page beyond the visible screen (though some shots were spoiled by repeating bars and other plugin items). It just worked for me, even though it was a bit buggy.

Recently though, it's been flagged up as dangerous malware by MacBooster (a Mac maintenance app). From what I can make out, it's got some pretty intrusive code under the bonnet ...and also it's no longer supported.

I can't ignore that. So I've switched to using Droplr, but there are plenty of other options, such as Evernote clipper.

If you're not technically minded or you don't regularly monitor your computer for malware, be aware that this might not be your best choice.

Hello,

I'm desperately looking for a way to take screenshot with a link (screenshotmachine.com is great for that) and then to annotate/edit it with simple tools (zoom, crop, circle)

I haven't found anything that's not in flash !

A way to integrate Awesome Screenshot would be just perfect for example !

Thanks !

I think Webpage Screenshot Capture is what you are looking for. You can use this app to grab an entire webpage with its link. And there is an Image Editor on the same site. It provides multiple editing options. It’s free online application. Give it a shot.

What is Awesome Screenshot?

Capture the whole page or any portion, annotate it with rectangles, circles, arrows, lines and text, one-click upload to share.

Capture Capture visible part Capture any region Capture the whole page Crop any portion and show crop dimension

Annotate Annotate it with rectangles, circles, arrows, lines and text Erase the sensitive information with blur tool

Share One-click Upload the screenshot to awesomescreenshot.com and get a sharable link Hard to guess URL to allow private sharing Share the link to twitter, facebook, email etc.

PRICING DETAILS: $5 one-time app purchase on Apple store $19,99/year (a little under $2/m) to unlock premium annotation features (call-out, steps, emojis, add pictture to a screenshot) and to record videos beyond a 30 second time limit with the Screen Recorder feature
