Add-on summary

You can take a screenshot of a specific area, window, your whole screen, or even of a website – apply different effects to it, draw on it to highlight points, and then upload to an image hosting site, all within one window.

User reviews
It works but when I use it google workspace goes down.

Great screenshot tool with lots of editing options.
For some reason it breaks google sheets. google will show a message that you need to clear cache and cookies which won't help and the sheet will fail to load until this extension is disabled.

I wanted to use the step counter, but after installing it, Google Docs won't open anymore. I tried logging out of my account and back in, but the problem persists. Then, I attempted to disable the add-on, and that seems to be the issue.
