## Why use this screenshot beautifier?

### Look good on social and in docs

A soft gradient and a little breathing room make a raw capture feel finished, whether it is headed for a tweet, a changelog or a slide.

### Full resolution out

The export keeps every pixel of your original screenshot, so text stays crisp on high-density displays.

### Paste straight from the clipboard

Take a screenshot, press Ctrl+V or ⌘V on this page, and it is ready to style. No saving files first.

### Private by design

Your screenshot is processed in your browser with the Canvas API. It is never uploaded, so internal dashboards and customer data stay on your device.

## How to use the screenshot beautifier

1. Drop, choose or paste a screenshot.
2. Pick a background and adjust padding, corner radius and shadow.
3. Turn on the browser frame if you want a window look.
4. Download the PNG or copy it to your clipboard.

## What is a screenshot beautifier?

A screenshot beautifier places your capture on a styled canvas with padding, a background and a shadow, so it reads as a deliberate image rather than a crop of your desktop. It is the quickest way to make product shots, bug reports and tutorials look consistent. Need the screenshot first? ScreenBadger captures the visible area, a region or a full scrolling page right in Chrome.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the screenshot beautifier free?

Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many images you make.

### Are my screenshots uploaded anywhere?

No. The image is drawn on a canvas in your browser and the PNG is created on your device. Nothing is sent to a server.

### What size is the exported image?

Your screenshot keeps its original resolution, plus the padding and frame you add around it. The exact size is shown before you download.

### Can I make the background transparent?

Yes. Choose Transparent in the background list to export a PNG with only the rounded, shadowed screenshot.

### Why does Copy to clipboard not work?

Some browsers limit copying images. If copying is blocked, use Download PNG instead.
