Free Online Screen Capture and Screenshot Tool
The DailyOnWeb screen capture tool takes a screenshot online without extensions or software. Share your screen, a window or a browser tab, and the tool turns the frame into an image you can download as PNG, JPG or WebP, or copy straight to your clipboard.
How to take a screenshot
- Choose a delay (none, 3, 5 or 10 seconds) and an image format.
- Click Capture screen and pick a screen, window or tab in the prompt.
- Check the result in the preview. Click Retake if you want to try again.
- Click Download to save the file, or Copy image to paste it elsewhere.
Choosing PNG, JPG or WebP
- PNG: lossless, ideal for text, user interfaces and diagrams.
- JPG: smaller files, good for photos and complex pictures.
- WebP: modern format that is often smaller than PNG or JPG at similar quality.
Capture menus and hover states
Use the delay timer to get a shot of dropdown menus, tooltips and hover effects. Start the capture, switch to the window you shared and open the menu. The picture is taken when the countdown ends.
Private and secure
Everything happens in your browser. The screenshot is shown locally and is only saved if you click Download. Browsers ask for permission every time, and you decide which screen, window or tab is shared.
