Circle Screenshot — Circu
View on Chrome Web StoreChrome will indicate if you already have this installed.
Overview
Every screenshot tool gives you a rectangle. This one gives you a circle.
Circle Screenshot is a free Chrome extension that captures circular screenshots directly from any webpage — or crops any uploaded image into a perfect circle. Drag to select, adjust your circle, and save as a transparent PNG with no background. A better snipping tool alternative for round screen captures, and a circle image cropper built right into your browser.
⭕ CAPTURE MODE — Take a Circular Screenshot from Any Webpage
How to take a circular screenshot: right-click any webpage and select "Capture a circle screenshot." Drag to draw your circle on the page, resize with 8 handles, and download or copy to clipboard. The page dims around your selection so you see exactly what you're capturing. A circular screen capture tool built into Chrome — screenshot any part of the screen as a perfect circle instead of a rectangle.
Works on any website. Grab a round screenshot from any page you can see.
⭕ CROP MODE — Crop Any Image into a Circle
How to crop an image into a circle: open the built-in circle image cropper, upload, paste from clipboard, or drag any image in. Position your circle over the area you want, adjust the size, and click Download or Copy. Your circular image exports at full resolution with a transparent background — a round photo maker and profile picture cropper in one tool.
Crop a photo into a circle. Crop a picture into a circle shape. Make any image round — JPG, PNG, or WEBP. No Photoshop needed, no separate circle crop website — just drag, position, and save.

Circle Screenshot handles both — capture circles from live webpages and crop uploaded photos into circles — without leaving Chrome. No account needed. No sign-up. Free.
