René Stout (ID: 00000047667936c4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/05/2024 Erg handige tool. Ik gebruik hem vooral om handleidingen te maken. Hij biedt veel functies voor een mooie prijs.

s f (ID: 000000b0e88aedb7) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/13/2024 (2017) Used to be good and stable with decent amount of options, now aside stability issues hasn't got any new features in years... (2024) Ok for screenshot captures. Rubbish for video capture which you can't do unless you log into the plarform. Ridiculous limitation. Will look for alternatives including screenshot/video recording apps.

Carrie Lewis (ID: 000000fdfc137b5f) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/09/2024 Yep I still use this extension on Chrome and it's still as useful as the day I first tried it. - 2024 I use it for everything from work to personal. It's an awesome add on. Thanks for making it. -- 2019

Birgit Jensen (ID: 000000cfe24acc49) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/08/2024 Still my favorite extension for screenshots since 2016. You can save only parts you select, the entire page or the part visible on screen. You can preview, rename and download your screenshots in several formats in just a few painless steps. Love it!!!! (I wonder why some users have such a poor experience -- this is as simple as it gets.) I have recommended this app countless times to others. Every time I have a new laptop, the device-specific screen shot setting is different, but it doesn't matter to me as I use Awesome Screenshot which comes with me on my browsers.

Kurrupted Khaos (ID: 0000004c1a48bf91) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/26/2024 So easy and convenient to use. So many more options than your regular old Win+PS screenshot! Update: The ASR extension over a year later still has his going on!
