About Unfurl — Full Page Screenshot, Annotate & Step Guides
Unfurl grabs a whole webpage, not just the part you can see on screen. Save it as one tall image or a PDF, then mark it up, tidy it and export it without leaving the tab.
Everything happens on your machine. No account, no server, no usage tracking. It asks for one permission, the tab you're capturing (activeTab), instead of the "read and change all your data on all websites" that most screenshot extensions want.
THREE WAYS TO CAPTURE
• The whole page. It scrolls and stitches for you, and keeps sticky headers and nav bars from repeating down the shot
• Just what's on screen right now
• Any area you drag out yourself
All three have keyboard shortcuts, and you can rebind them in your browser's shortcut settings.
ANNOTATE (free)
• Pen, arrow, line, text, boxes, ellipses, and emoji stickers you can search by name
• Anything you draw stays editable. Click it to move, resize, recolour or delete it. Nothing gets burned into the pixels
• Set colour, line width, font size and opacity once and Unfurl remembers them for next time
• Zoom in and out, fit to window, plus shortcuts (V/P/A/L/T/R/E/H/C, arrow keys to nudge, Ctrl+Z/Y)
• Dress the shot up before you send it: padding, background colour, rounded corners, drop shadow
• Black out anything you'd rather not show
MORE TOOLS WITH PRO
• Keep captures on this device so you can reopen and keep editing them later (off by default; you pick how many days before they delete themselves)
• Proper blur and highlight
• Numbered markers that count 1, 2, 3 for you, handy for how-to guides
• Spotlight, which dims everything except the bit you want people to look at
• Crop, and cut an unwanted band out of the middle of a long shot so the two halves close back up
• Stamp the URL and timestamp onto the image for your records
• Really long pages get split across PDF pages instead of being cut off
READ TEXT AND HIDE DETAILS (Pro, entirely on-device)
• Drag over any part of the shot to pull the text out and copy it. Works in English, Thai and Simplified Chinese
• Scan the whole capture for emails, phone numbers, card numbers and Thai ID numbers, then blur them all in one click
• The text engine and its language files ship inside the extension, so nothing is uploaded anywhere
SAVE AND SHARE
• PNG, JPEG, WebP (Pro) or PDF. PDFs come out at the image's own size or laid onto A4/Letter, and links on the page stay clickable
• Drop files into a sub-folder of Downloads, or get asked where to put each one
• Copy to the clipboard, resized automatically to fit what Google Docs will accept
• Save straight to Google Drive, Google Photos or OneDrive, but only when you click the button yourself
• Pro: one click saves to your own Google Drive and copies the share link back, with no server of ours in the middle
• Share to X, Facebook, LinkedIn or LINE: the image goes to your clipboard, the post window opens with the caption ready, and you paste it in. Unfurl uploads nothing
• Pro: write your own caption template, and turn the small Unfurl badge off
ABOUT PRIVACY
Left alone, Unfurl never touches the network. Capturing, annotating, reading text and exporting all happen on your machine. The exceptions are the "Save to…" buttons, where the file goes straight from your browser to the provider you picked, signed in as you, and Share, which opens the social network's own post page with a caption in it and leaves the image on your clipboard for you to paste. We have no server in that path, so we never see or store your file or your credentials. Captures are deleted from local storage as soon as you're done with them.
The interface is in English, German, Japanese, Thai and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional). If you'd rather try before buying, Settings has a free 7-day Pro trial that only needs an email address, no account.
One key is yours personally: it works in Chrome, Edge and Firefox, on the computer at home and the one at work, and you can move between them without releasing anything first.

WHAT EACH PERMISSION IS FOR
• activeTab / scripting — read and act on the page you asked to capture, and only when you press the button
• downloads — save the files you export
• storage — keep your settings and licence state on your device
• contextMenus — the right-click entry for starting a capture
• clipboardWrite — the Copy button
• identity — used when you press "Save to…", to sign you in to that provider
