Handy Screenshot: Easy & Convenient Screenshot Chrome Extension

'Handy Screenshot' is a Chrome extension designed to simplify the process of capturing screenshots. With the capability to capture the full screen, visible part, or user-selected area of a webpage, it offers an easy user interface for screenshot editing. After capturing, users can easily copy the image with a single click. While it consistently updates with Chrome changes, users may experience slower captures with the full page screenshot feature due to a recent Chrome 92 change.

MUY BUENO Y RÁPIDO

By far the best snipping tool. I love you can create your own shortcut keys to have it available, or pin to your bookmarks.

Amazing tool, the only problem I have is that screenshots are low in quality (blurry), might be due to compression but I personally rather a more quality option.
