How to Capture a Full-Page Screenshot in Chrome DevTools on Mac

Use Chrome DevTools’ Device Toolbar to capture a webpage beyond the visible viewport, and learn when to use full-page, viewport, or area capture.
Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

In Chrome on a Mac, open DevTools, turn on the Device Toolbar, then choose More options → Capture a full size screenshot. Chrome captures the page beyond the visible viewport. Make sure you choose the full-size option—not the regular screenshot, which captures only the viewport.

Capture the entire page in Chrome DevTools

  1. Open the webpage in Chrome, then open DevTools with Command+Option+C. Alternatively, use Command+Option+J to open the Console. See Chrome’s DevTools overview.

  2. In DevTools, click Toggle device toolbar in the action bar. The toolbar’s Dimensions setting defaults to Responsive. Choose a device or viewport only if you want the page captured at that size. See Chrome’s Device Mode documentation.

  3. In the Device Toolbar, open More options and select Capture a full size screenshot. This captures content beyond the part of the page currently visible on screen.

  4. Locate the resulting image using Chrome’s download behavior and settings. Chrome’s cited instructions confirm the capture command but do not establish a universal filename, image format, or download-folder location.

Choose the right screenshot command

What Device Mode does—and does not do

Device Mode lets you view a page in a simulated device or responsive viewport from your desktop. It is an approximation of a mobile experience, not a test running on a physical phone. For a full-page capture at a chosen width, set the desired dimensions in the Device Toolbar before selecting Capture a full size screenshot.

If you need repeatable captures from code rather than a one-off DevTools screenshot, ScreenshotNeo offers a screenshot API. One GET request can return a screenshot or PDF. Its clean-shot options accept cookie or consent banners and remove more than 60 known consent platforms, newsletter popups, and chat widgets before capture; each step can be turned off. Bot checks, blank pages, timeouts, failed loads, and cache hits are not billed, and responses include X-Page-Verdict and X-Billed headers. An MCP server provides take_screenshot, get_page_info, and capture_pdf tools for AI agents and MCP clients.

Here is the one-call cURL example; replace the target URL with the page you want to capture:

curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://stripe.com -o shot.webp

See the ScreenshotNeo API documentation for the available parameters. The free plan includes 1,000 shots per month with no card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000 shots. Try ScreenshotNeo free.

ScreenshotNeo is a website screenshot API and MCP server by Yorker Media.
