Scrolling Screenshot

Capture an entire web page as a single PNG, even if it scrolls past one screen. Stealth Browse stitches multiple viewport captures together as the page auto-scrolls.

Taking a Scrolling Screenshot

  1. Open the page you want to capture.
  2. Open the browser menu and tap Screenshot.
  3. A floating capture widget overlays the WebView. The browser hides toolbars and overlays during capture so they don't appear in the result.
  4. The page auto-scrolls in steps (about 80% of the viewport per step) and a frame is captured after each scroll.
  5. Tap the widget again to stop, or let it run to the bottom of the page.

How Stitching Works

  • On Android 8+ the capture uses PixelCopy from the window for a true pixel-perfect snapshot.
  • On older versions the WebView is drawn to a software-layered bitmap.
  • Each captured frame is offset by the page's scroll Y delta - overlapping pixels are removed during stitching so the final PNG has no duplicate sections.

Tips & Limits

  • Very long pages produce very large PNGs - free memory before capturing if the page is huge.
  • Pages with fixed-position elements (sticky headers, floating chat) may show those elements multiple times in the stitch.
  • Some heavily virtualised pages (infinite scrolls that recycle DOM nodes) won't capture cleanly. Capture in chunks instead.
