Inkshot is a free Chrome extension that lets you capture screenshots of any webpage and annotate them with professional drawing tools. You can capture the visible area, the full page, or select a specific region — then add arrows, shapes, text, and freehand drawings before exporting as PNG or sharing via link.

How do I take a full page screenshot with Inkshot?

Click the Inkshot icon in your toolbar and select 'Full Page Capture', or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+F (Cmd+Shift+F on Mac). Inkshot will automatically scroll the entire page and stitch all sections together into one seamless full-page screenshot.

What drawing tools does Inkshot offer?

Inkshot includes a full annotation toolkit: freehand pen drawing, arrow tool, rectangle and circle shapes, text annotations, and a crop tool. You can customize colors from 8 preset options or use a custom color picker, adjust line thickness (1-20px), and set opacity (20-100%).

Can I capture a specific area of a webpage?

Yes, Inkshot supports area selection capture. Use Ctrl+Shift+S (Cmd+Shift+S on Mac) or select 'Capture Area' from the popup. A crosshair selector will appear, allowing you to drag and select the exact region you want to capture.

Is Inkshot free to use?

Yes, Inkshot is completely free. All features — screenshot capture, drawing tools, export options, and history — are available at no cost. No subscriptions, no hidden fees, no account required.

How do I share my annotated screenshots?

Inkshot offers multiple export options: download as PNG file with a timestamped filename, copy directly to your clipboard for instant pasting, or generate a shareable link. All options are accessible from the annotation editor toolbar.

Can I blur sensitive information in screenshots?

Yes. Inkshot has a built-in blur/pixelation tool. Select the Blur tool (press B), drag over the area you want to hide, and the content is pixelated locally. This is perfect for hiding passwords, emails, personal data, or any sensitive information before sharing your screenshot.

What keyboard shortcuts does Inkshot support?

Inkshot supports extensive keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+Shift+S (area capture), Ctrl+Shift+V (visible viewport), Ctrl+Shift+F (full page), plus tool shortcuts — V (move), P (pen), A (arrow), R (rectangle), C (ellipse), T (text), B (blur), H (highlight), N (number). Editing shortcuts include Ctrl+Z (undo), Ctrl+Y (redo), Ctrl+S (download), and Ctrl+C (copy to clipboard).

Capture Any Webpage, Any Way You Want

Three powerful screenshot capture modes to fit every need — from a quick visible area capture to a complete full page screenshot

Visible Area Capture

Instantly capture the visible area of any webpage with a single click. Uses Chrome's native API for pixel-perfect, high-quality screenshots — no scrolling, no stitching, just a clean capture of exactly what you see on screen.

Ctrl+Shift+V

Full Page Screenshot

Capture the entire webpage from top to bottom — including content below the fold. Inkshot automatically scrolls, captures each section, and stitches them seamlessly into one complete full page screenshot.

Ctrl+Shift+F

Select Area Capture

Select a specific region of the page with a crosshair tool and capture only what matters. Perfect for grabbing a single element, a paragraph, a chart, or any custom area without capturing the entire screen.

Ctrl+Shift+S

10 Professional Annotation Tools

A complete screenshot annotation toolkit built right into your browser — draw, highlight, blur, label, and crop with precision

P

Freehand Pen

Draw freely on your screenshot with smooth strokes. Underline text, circle important areas, or sketch quick notes directly on the captured image.

A

Arrow Tool

Point to specific elements with clean, directional arrows. Essential for annotating screenshots in bug reports, design feedback, and tutorials.

R

Rectangle

Draw bounding boxes to frame sections of your webpage screenshot. Emphasize UI elements, mark areas for review, or create clear visual callouts.

C

Circle / Ellipse

Encircle key areas with oval and circular shapes. A fast way to highlight buttons, errors, or data points when marking up screenshots for your team.

T

Text Annotation

Click anywhere to add text labels and notes. Multi-line support with draggable positioning — perfect for documentation and visual communication.

H

Highlight Tool

Apply semi-transparent color overlays to emphasize content. Highlight text, sections, or any area without obscuring the original content underneath.

B

Blur / Pixelation

Blur sensitive information — passwords, emails, personal data, or any content you want to hide before sharing. One-click pixelation, processed entirely locally.

N

Number Markers

Add auto-incrementing numbered circles for step-by-step guides. Perfect for tutorials, documentation, and instructional screenshot markup.

V

Move / Select

Select and reposition any annotation on the canvas. Click to select, drag to move — non-destructive editing means nothing is permanent until you export.

Toolbar

Crop Tool

Crop your screenshot to remove unwanted edges and focus on the relevant area. Select the region to keep and apply — the rest is trimmed away cleanly.

How to Use Inkshot

Capture, annotate, and share in three simple steps — no sign-up, no learning curve

Capture Your Screenshot

Click the Inkshot icon in your browser toolbar and choose a capture mode: Visible Area, Full Page, or Select Area. You can also use keyboard shortcuts for instant capture — Ctrl+Shift+V for visible, Ctrl+Shift+F for full page, Ctrl+Shift+S for area selection.

Annotate with Drawing Tools

The captured screenshot opens in the Inkshot annotation editor. Use the pen, arrow, rectangle, circle, or text tools to draw on your screenshot. Customize colors, line thickness, and opacity to match your style. Use Ctrl+Z to undo any change.

Export or Share

When your annotated screenshot is ready, download it as PNG with a timestamped filename, copy to clipboard for instant pasting into chats and documents, or generate a shareable link. Your screenshot history is saved so you can revisit and re-edit anytime.

Why Inkshot Stands Out

More than just a screenshot tool — Inkshot is a complete capture-and-annotate workflow built for speed

Color & Style Customization

Choose from 8 preset colors or pick any custom color. Adjust line thickness from 1–20px and opacity from 20–100%. Every annotation tool respects your style settings.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Switch tools instantly with single-key shortcuts: P for pen, A for arrow, R for rectangle, C for circle, T for text. Full keyboard shortcut support for power users.

Blur Sensitive Content

Hide passwords, emails, and personal data with the built-in blur/pixelation tool. Drag over any area to pixelate it locally before sharing — essential for privacy-conscious teams.

Screenshot History

InkShot saves your last 50 captured screenshots automatically. View recent thumbnails in the popup, click to reopen in the editor, and continue annotating where you left off.

Zoom & Precision

Zoom in and out with mouse wheel or +/- keys. Get pixel-level precision when annotating small details — essential for bug reports and design feedback.

Undo & Redo

Made a mistake? Press Ctrl+Z to undo, Ctrl+Y to redo. Full history support means you can experiment freely without worrying about losing your work.

50+ Languages Supported

Inkshot is fully localized in over 50 languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Turkish, Arabic, and more. The interface adapts to your Chrome language setting.

Built for Everyone Who Works Visually

Whether you're reporting bugs, giving design feedback, or creating tutorials — Inkshot makes visual communication effortless

Bug Reports

Capture the issue, draw an arrow pointing to the bug, add a text note, and share the annotated screenshot with your development team. Clearer than words, faster than video.

Design Feedback

Take a screenshot of a webpage, circle the elements that need changes, add notes about color, spacing, or layout, and send it to your designer. Visual feedback, delivered instantly.

Tutorials & Documentation

Create step-by-step visual guides by capturing screenshots, adding numbered arrows, text labels, and highlights. Export as PNG for use in docs, wikis, or presentations.

Team Collaboration

Share annotated screenshots via link with colleagues. No file attachments, no app switching — just capture, annotate, share. Everyone sees exactly what you mean.

Your Screenshots Stay Private

Inkshot processes everything locally in your browser. Your screenshots are never uploaded to any server unless you explicitly choose to generate a shareable link. No accounts, no tracking, no data collection. The extension only requests the permissions it needs to capture and annotate — nothing more. Your browsing activity and captured images remain completely under your control.
