Capture or record a video of your screen, write text or arrows and share it. The safest extension with NO crazy permissions!

• Quick and clean interface • Much safer than the rest. NO permissions required! Try installing other screenshot extensions and read their install permissions ...they are crazy! Every other extension has this permission: "Read and change ALL your DATA on the websites you visit." This means it can request or modify data from sites like bank account, Facebook etc. • Supports "Save to Google Drive" • Optional right click context menu for quick captures • Assign shortcut keys

Take a full or partial snapshot of any website or even upload an image into the cloud that you'd like to share or send to someone. You can draw arrows, lines, circles to point out things or even move, erase or delete selections and even annotate the snapshot by placing text right on the image.
