Screenshot websites, save images, share instantly.
Gyazo for Chrome is an easy-to-use extension that lets you capture anything in your browser, share it instantly, and keep it as a visual bookmark.
Use it to capture a specific image, page element, free selection, or entire web page in 2 clicks. You can also get instant previews of all Gyazo links posted online simply by hovering with your mouse.
Everything you capture is saved together with the site and page title, link, and date so you can easily search and find it later. With Gyazo anything you see can be instantly saved, shared, and bookmarked.
Key features
— Capture any image on the web with a right click
Right click any image then hover 'Capture' and left click 'This image.' The full size image will be uploaded and a preview shown to confirm.
— Capture with the Gyazo icon in your toolbar
- Page Element
Captures individual elements of a page such as an image, a text box, or other subsection of a page.
- Free Selection
Captures any part of a page you want freely, similar to the Gyazo desktop app.
- Page
Captures the entire visible area of the page.
- Whole page
Captures the entire page from the very top to the very bottom.
- Home
This button opens your captures page in a new tab so you can browse, search, and collect your captures.
— Hover Previewing
When you hover over a Gyazo link you can see an instant preview below the link, no click required.
--- How Gyazo works ---
Anything you capture is instantly uploaded to https://gyazo.com with a unique link. The link is copied to your clipboard so you can paste it instantly to share. By default all Gyazo links are unlisted and only visible by people who have the unique link.
— Browse, search, and collect easily
On your captures page you can browse, search, and collect your captures. When you capture the app also saves metadata so you can find things more easily such as the site name, page title, link, and date so you can search your captures without needing to manually add tags or descriptions. This data is saved privately by default and you can choose to share it with viewers by clicking a button. This is very useful for creating visual bookmarks and for easy recall of your ideas.
Note: We do not use this metadata except to provide convenient search and organization features for you.
— Create collections to organize and even share together
It's easy to add captures to a collection and give it a new title. This way you can organize your captures and share a set of captures at once. You can also invite other people and add captures to a collection.
You get all this with the new Gyazo extension. You can also use Gyazo for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Firefox, and Edge.
This extension and Gyazo Teams are the only official extensions for Chrome made by Gyazo.com.

Latest reviews
- (2023-11-06) Lara Kulpa: This used to be the ultimate screengrab extention, and then all of the sudden one day, it wasn't. It doesn't grab the whole free selected area that I choose, it doesn't do the whole page grab at all, and more bugs than it's ever had. It's really sad, because it was at one point, a great tool.
- (2023-09-23) Otto R. Cerratos: no funciona adecuadamente, además de que no permite libre selección para capturar pantallas, del pago ya ni hablemos... muy mala, existen extensiones y apps de mucho mejor calidad.
- (2023-08-16) R. U: 動作しないwin11
- (2023-08-06) Yamila Yamila: muy buena
- (2023-04-15) Mike Butt: Garbage.
- (2023-04-08) Nub: Biggest cash grab I've come across in a while. The most basic of features, such as accessing MY OWN CONTENT THAT I UPLOADED is locked behind a paywall.

- (2022-09-23) Thomas: It works great, have been using it for many years!
- (2022-07-15) D W: It's useful, but when I try to use Element Capture (the reason I installed it), it gets extra stuff from other elements surrounding the one I wanted to capture. This means I still need to edit the capture images, which I could do from a regular screen capture and selecting the section I needed.
- (2022-02-17) manish rawat: Does not work. I reinstalled it twice did not capture the page. Dont know what happened i have used this extension earlier it use to work

- (2021-02-10) Vlad: ok
- (2020-09-12) Bruno Garcia (Μπρούνο Γκαρσία): It works most of the time but on some pages the screenshots are entirely black. This does not happen on other extensions like Lightshot for example.
- (2020-08-05) Apothicredd: have no idea how to use it i need help
- (2020-04-02) Ben Schweitzer: The only reason I installed this was for the Whole page capture feature, and it doesn't work, so it's basically useless.
- (2019-10-25) Trym Dullum: Awful...

- (2018-12-01) Miracle: Bug report: After using it, I try to right click and bring up a menu in Chrome but it doesn't pop up. It was happening constantly. Chrome version: Version 70.0.3538.110
- (2018-10-02) AshCryptix: it did not work for me at all on chrome beta
- (2018-08-24) Hailey Biggers: Honestly just download it from the acutal website, it takes up your CPU when you have it in chrome. because then you can make GIFs etc if you just download the acutal application to your pc. tbh its quiet useless on browser. it does the same thing, but the application you download acutally works. not this extension.
- (2018-06-15) Lars Kukovec: Nice. Very nice.
- (2018-06-11) Toby Kitchen: It's great, I love it for sharing photos online easily. I have had no trouble at all with this software.

- (2017-12-10) AD: nice ting
- (2017-11-27) Francisco: La aplicación es muy útil, sobre todod en GIF, pero está muy bien para comparitr una imagen rápidamente
- (2017-11-20) N. J. L.: For all of its utility and convenience, most pictures become useless after more than a week. I would rather Gyazo pro offer additional features, instead of denying something so simple.
- (2017-11-15) Евгений Зоркальцев: Capture -> Free Selection - is not properly operating on some site in Chromium 62.0.3202.89 on Ubuntu 16.04 (64-bit)
- (2017-09-20) Don't like it. I don't like programs that force you to register an account.
- (2017-08-24) jelle meeus: Does not work
- (2017-08-11) Spank_That_Udder: Perfect for sharing images to friends, and capturing video game moments. I can not recommend it enough
- (2017-07-04) Nicholas Bloxxer: It's an overall nice thing to have handy on your chrome browser. What I dislike though is that it seems to randomly make some of your screenshots unavailable to view/share unless you purchase Gyazo Pro. Out of all the features you could have added that can be premium only, you decide to just randomly take away people's screenshots until they purchase Gyazo pro just to view it? Unacceptable.
- (2017-06-24) Samuel Salvatore: Si, es una aplicacion buena para sacar capturas (igual que las otras miles que hay en internet) pero no me gusto para nada como tengo que pagar para ver capturas de un mes o más, la verdad, hay muchas otras aplicaciones que hacen el trabajo de capturar pantallas perfectamente, y son totalmente gratis y ni hace falta tener una cuenta en algún lado, mi opinión: mediocre tirando a malo
- (2017-06-05) Jnk9: Maybe it's just because I don't understand, but I can't screenshot.
- (2017-05-17) ThaProfessor11: It's great, all previous problems have been fixed.
- (2017-05-05) Ароматерапия Эфирные масла Бизнес Надольный Юрий: Очень качественный материал!
