Review Summary

Users appreciate Fast Screenshot for its simplicity, speed, and automatic saving of visible screen captures with minimal effort. However, many have recently experienced a frustrating change where the extension prompts for a save location each time instead of auto-saving, which disrupts workflow. Users also request keyboard shortcuts to improve usability and desire features such as full-page capture and better handling of dropdown menus. Additionally, some note the need to avoid capturing scrollbars and to improve default file naming.

Pros

  • Very simple and easy to use with one-button operation
  • Fast and lightweight, providing instant screenshot and download
  • Automatically saves screenshots as image files without extra editing
  • Minimalist design suitable for quick tasks
  • Effective for capturing visible parts of the screen

Cons

  • Recently changed behavior to ask for 'Save As' location on every screenshot instead of auto-saving to Downloads
  • Lack of keyboard shortcuts, making it difficult to use especially in fullscreen mode
  • No option to capture full webpage or to capture dropdown menus as they close when interacting with the extension
  • Sometimes downloads screenshots with undesired file names requiring manual renaming
  • Captures scrollbar as well, which some users find undesirable
