Rated 2 out of 5
by HonestReviews, 2 years ago12-21-24: partial image only works on ffox. slow. bogs down or freezes laptop on long pages, no warning. Sometimes requiring reboot.
8-8-24: Only allows user selection of portion of page on Firefox-will not work on other browers it's all of nothing then. Frequently cannot deal with long pages and freezes your pc. Slow.
4-24-24: gotten worse instead of better. Author could not fix the problem with not being able to select portions of a page so now you have NO CHOICE you get the full page whether youwant it or not. Because the author can't program his way out of a paper bag, that's why. SLOOWWWWW not infrequently freezed your computer without any escape. More junkware addons.
12-28-23: Reduced to two stars. Developer doesn't have the skills to ensure that capture SELECTION is available and program auto captures entire page whether you like it or not. This results in your computer freezing up because program cannot deal with overlimit memory usage-no warnings no way to escape except reboot. BADBADBAD! Amateur hour. Works well on small pages but is exceedingly SLOWWWW. Nuf said.
7-4-23: update:
another addon that works about 60% of the time. Rest of the time it is TOO SLOW and you cannot reliable scroll save screenshots as it is unresponsive or too damn slow to respond. Especially bad with the crap browser tor or any page you want to scroll several pages. Hard to determine when to stop the scroll. Key shortcuts work better than mouse clicks for this. Good idea but like most extensions not implemented well. Takes too long also to download the image and save it. Not a flexible way to set a unique download folder for this.
update 4-7-23: doesn't work on tor browser with long page. you sometimes get "infinite page detected, stop load?" But then the stop load doesn't work and you cannot save anything. SLOWWWW SLOWWW, take a coffee break while your waiting for this junk addone to load. Only works on short pages.
works but SLOWWWWW. Especially slow when making pdf file, painfully slow.
5-2-23: Still mostly not working on tor browsers with longer pages. When it DOES work it is painfully slow. Can't wait all day for it to complete. Doesn't work at all on earlier versions of tor browser. So far NO GOOD total screen capture available, they all suck.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Fohsap, 13 hours agoWhy does it ask to access all_urls? Just press ctrl+shift+i and go to the inspector settings (press f1 here) and go to Available Toolbox Buttons and turn on full-page screenshot. No need for risking your privacy and data. Scary extensions be damned.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12547617, 9 days agoIt is misleading addon. It presents itself as Full Web Page Screenshots but even that most basic functionality is behind paywall. Even Firefox's basic screenshot functionality is better.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18433654, 14 days agoI am not a heavy user of Fireshot, but when I need it, I have found no other addon that is in the same league. The functionality is exceptional and it's easy to use. It does things that nothing else is capable of. I don't leave home without it. . . . :-)
