What Is a Full Website Screenshot?

A full website screenshot (also called a scrolling screenshot) captures the entire webpage — including content below the visible screen. Instead of multiple screenshots, Android stitches everything into one long image.

This is useful for:

• Saving articles for offline reading
• Capturing receipts or invoices
• Study notes and tutorials
• Sharing full web pages

Method 1: Use Built-in Scrolling Screenshot (Android 12+)

Most modern Android phones running Android 12 or later support scrolling screenshots natively.

Steps:

1. Open the website in your browser
2. Take a screenshot (Power + Volume Down)
3. Tap Capture More or Scroll
4. Adjust the frame to cover the full page
5. Save the screenshot

Supported Brands: Pixel, OnePlus, Xiaomi, Realme, OPPO, Vivo

Result: Full webpage saved as a single long image

Method 2: Take Full Website Screenshot Using Google Chrome

Google Chrome offers a hidden feature that allows you to capture full web pages as images or PDFs.

Steps:

1. Open the website in Google Chrome
2. Tap the three-dot menu
3. Select Share
4. Tap Long Screenshot
5. Adjust the page length and save

Bonus: You can save the webpage as a PDF

Method 3: Samsung Long Screenshot (Scroll Capture)

Samsung Galaxy phones offer one of the best long screenshot features.

Steps:

1. Take a screenshot normally
2. Tap Scroll Capture (down arrow icon)
3. Keep tapping until full page is captured
4. Save the image

Supported Devices: Samsung Galaxy phones with One UI

Method 4: Use Third-Party Apps

If your phone doesn’t support scrolling screenshots, third-party apps can help.
