Safari doesn't have a simple full page screenshot feature like Firefox or Chrome. There's no keyboard shortcut, no right-click option. But there are two workarounds that get the job done.
Cmd+Option+I to open Web Inspector<html> tag at the topIt's not elegant, but it captures the full scrollable page.
If you don't need an image file:
This gives you a multi-page PDF instead of one long image. You can convert it to PNG later using Preview (File → Export) if needed.
Works on: Most standard websites and articles.
Can be unreliable: Some pages produce extra white space or corrupted files. Very long or complex pages may not capture correctly.
macOS screenshots won't help: The system shortcuts (Cmd+Shift+3, Cmd+Shift+4) only capture what's visible on screen — they can't scroll.
Safari is the weakest browser for full page screenshots. If you need this feature often, Firefox does it in two clicks.
Safari's full-page capture is cumbersome and sometimes unreliable. For consistent results, especially on complex pages, a dedicated screenshot API works better.
AllScreenshots captures full-page screenshots reliably:
curl -X POST 'https://api.allscreenshots.com/v1/screenshots' \
-H 'X-API-Key: your-api-key' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"url": "https://example.com", "fullPage": true}' \
-o screenshot.pngNo Web Inspector needed, no PDF conversion, no white space issues. The API handles lazy-loaded images, blocks ads, and produces clean PNG or JPEG output every time.
