How to Take a Screenshot with Helperbird

Learn how to quickly capture screenshots of any webpage using Helperbird's built-in screenshot tool. Save images instantly to your device.

What is the Screenshot Tool?

The Screenshot Tool captures an image of the current webpage. It takes a picture of exactly what you see on your screen and saves it as a file on your computer.

This is useful for saving information from websites, keeping a record of important pages, or sharing what you see with others.


Who is This For?

This feature is helpful for:

  • Students who need to save information for assignments
  • Anyone who wants to keep a record of webpage content
  • People who need to share what they see online with others
  • Researchers who want to document web sources
  • Anyone who needs to capture website content quickly

Step 1: Open Helperbird

Click the Helperbird icon in your browser toolbar. It looks like a small owl and is usually in the top-right corner of your browser.

This will open the Helperbird menu.


Step 2: Open the All Features Section

Scroll down to the bottom of the Helperbird menu. You will see a section called All Features.

Click the arrow next to All Features to expand it and show all available features.


Step 3: Find Screenshot

Look through the list of features until you see Screenshot.

It has a camera or lightning bolt icon next to it.


Step 4: Capture Screenshot

Click the Capture button next to Screenshot.

Helperbird will instantly capture the current webpage. You will see a notification saying "Taking a Screenshot" at the bottom of the page.

The screenshot will be saved automatically to your browser's downloads folder as a PNG file. The filename includes a timestamp so you can easily organize your captures.

Tip: Screenshots are saved directly to your default downloads folder. You can find them in your file manager or by clicking the downloads icon in your browser.

This chrome extension is absolutely amazing. I'm a Primary school teacher and it helps children with a broad range of needs. It's so easy to set up. I love the way it syncs across devices so set up is seamless across all the children's computers. The customizable features are a game changer for allowing children to enjoy reading and accessing the web in our school. The best application I have ever seen for school children. Looking forward to trying the iPad application soon.
