No More Print Screen! Capture Websites Easily With Canva’s Website Screenshot App

Ditch the clunky print screen method. Here's how to capture clean, high-quality website screenshots directly inside Canva.

Tired of Clunky Screenshots? There’s a Better Way

If you've ever captured a website using the Print Screen key or a browser extension, you know the drill — awkward cropping, poor resolution, switching between tools. It’s a time sink, especially if you’re trying to make content look polished.

Thankfully, there's a better option: the Website Screenshot app built into Canva. It’s a simple, integrated tool for capturing full-page website screenshots, no extra software required.

Why the Old-School Screenshot Method Falls Short

While "Print Screen" is quick, it's rarely clean:

• Limited control – You often grab too much or too little.
• Blurry or inconsistent output – Depends on your screen resolution.
• Extra editing – Cropping and enhancing take time.
• No scroll support – Can't easily capture long pages.
• No built-in annotations – You'll need another tool for that.

If you're a designer, content creator, or marketer, these drawbacks add friction to your workflow.

Enter Canva’s Website Screenshot App

Canva’s app simplifies the whole process. Here’s what it brings to the table:

• Capture from any URL – Just type or paste a web address.
• Instant insertion – The screenshot drops right into your Canva design.
• High-res output – Looks sharp across devices.
• Full editing – Add text, graphics, highlights, annotations, and more.
• No switching tabs or tools – Everything happens in Canva.

This saves time and gives you better visuals without the headaches.
