About GoFullPage
GoFullPage does one job: it turns a whole scrolling web page into a single image or PDF in one click. It scrolls the page, stitches the pieces together and opens the result in a new tab, where you can download it as PNG, JPEG or PDF. Its listing says it copes with inner scrollable elements and embedded iframes, which trip up many rivals.
The case for it is restraint. On Chrome it runs on Manifest V3 and asks only for the active tab, scripting and storage, with downloads, tabs and web navigation as optional extras. The developer discloses that it does not collect or use your data, and the listing promises no ads. A premium editor adds cropping, annotation and emoji, while plain capturing and exporting stays in the free version.
Know two things first. The code is no longer open: the original project on GitHub is MIT-licensed, but the current extension is closed. And in August 2026 it was pulled from the Chrome Web Store, and Brave disabled it for users with a policy warning. The developers blamed a copyright dispute and denied selling it, and we found no report of malware. The listing is live again, with updates in September and October.
