From clipboard to file in one step

Keyboard shortcuts like Win + Shift + S on Windows or ⌘ + Ctrl + Shift + 4 on a Mac copy the screenshot to your clipboard instead of saving a file. Paste it on this page with Ctrl + V and download it straight away as PNG, JPG or WebP.

Want it to look polished for a presentation, tweet or tutorial? Switch to Beautify to place it on a gradient background with padding, rounded corners, a soft shadow and an optional browser-style window frame.

Frequently asked questions

How do I save a copied screenshot as a file?

Paste it on this page with Ctrl + V and click Download. The file is saved with the date and time in its name.

Which format is best for screenshots?

PNG keeps text and interface edges perfectly sharp. WebP is also sharp and smaller. JPG is smallest but can blur text slightly.

Yes. Choose Beautify and pick a light or dark window frame, with optional address-bar text.
