Reviews for Save Screenshot
Save Screenshot by Manuel Reimer
Review by Digital Dreams
Rated 5 out of 5
by Digital Dreams, 7 years agoI just tested about 6 or 7 different screenshot extensions — including the big ones like Nimbus, Awesome Screenshot, and Fireshot — and Save Screenshot by Manuel Reimer was the only one that could actually (and COMPLETELY capture and) save the huge webpages I needed to screenshot for archiving purposes. Not only was the capturing process itself much faster the others I have tested in the past, it captured the entirety of the first webpage (in one try) as a 26.5 MB PNG file without any unnecessary loading, superfluous options, or other fluff that normally gets in the way of performing what should be a simple task in a timely manner. It delivered and did everything it promised to do for me as of November 8th, 2018 on my Firefox 62.0 Portable browser — in private browsing mode no less with a VPN on without needing to tweak anything beforehand.
*Funny story about this extension:
I had been so frustrated with the repeated failures of the other webpage capture extensions that, when I didn't see an immediate reaction to hitting the screencapture button, I assumed it wasn't working like all the others and uninstalled it immediately — within seconds because I had my extensions tab open for quick access. To my dismay the "save file as" window popped up almost immediately after I had uninstalled it. I was still able to save the image despite the extension being uninstalled and immediately undid the uninstallation once I realized it had worked. Talk about a close call.

- Rated 5 out of 5by barnabas, 15 days agoAs Firefox currently doesn't support scroll/full page screenshot on Android, this extension is really useful. It simply just works.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Fridah, 22 days agoTo me, the only Screenshot Addon that really works (only tested on Firefox Desktop Version!).
It does what you hope for:
1 continues, big picture - in a small fileformat - without external servers - advertisements - or a heavy addon with several megabytes!
Sleek - working - FOSS - I love it!
Thank you Manuel! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18352095, 2 months agostill the best, simplest and versatile screen shot saver, many thanks to M-Reimer

- Rated 1 out of 5by DevourerOS, 4 months agoDoesn't take a screenshot of the whole page, it just nothing more than what you can already do with your power and volume down buttons.

posted 5 months agoWhich does not provide some of the features that I provide with my Add-on. But yes, if you are happy with the Firefox built-in, then there is no need to install my Add-on. - Rated 5 out of 5by pineapplemilk, 5 months agoThis add-on work incredibly well on Firefox for Android!
A must-have add-on before FFfA has its built-in screenshot feature like the desktop version. - Rated 5 out of 5by akasico1, 6 months ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Gordon Dry, 10 months agoLeider funktioniert "Ganze Seite" nicht, es passiert das gleiche wie bei "Anzeigebereich", es wird nur der sichtbare Teil als Grafikdatei gespeichert.

posted 9 months agoDas ist stark davon abhängig wie die Seite aufgebaut ist. Bei einigen modernen Web-Applikationen kann ein ganzseitiger Screenshot prinzipbedingt nicht mehr funktionieren.
Bei "großen Webseiten" wäre es prinzipiell möglich hier gezielt Abhilfe zu schaffen. Lohnt aber wirklich nur für sehr große Web-Portale und wäre auch nur möglich gewesen wenn das Problem bei GitHub und nicht hier als Bewertung gemeldet worden wäre. Dann hätte man nämlich auch anständig kommunizieren können. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ramon V M, 10 months agoThis add-on is perfect. Although Firefox already has a screenshot feature, this add-on is very straightforward and offers various but simple options. I have it set to take screenshots in JPG format at 90% quality, and every capture comes out with excellent image quality and without much file size. Yesterday, I also discovered an option that lets you add the date, hour, minutes, and seconds to the screenshots exactly how you want! Thank you! :D

posted a year agoA screenshot is a raster image. And for this PNG and JPEG are the formats to go.
For proper PDF archiving, I recommend you going over the print dialog or use the "Print Edit WE" extension.- Rated 5 out of 5by Norooz, a year agoSo helpful for firefox android! Please check it for security as well, Firefox team.
