    Three capture options are now available, full page (recommended), legacy, and visible area only.
    Screenshots now correctly hide floating elements like chat widgets, cookie banners, and scroll-to-top buttons. 
    PDF added as an export format alongside PNG and JPEG.

    Pro users get additional editing tools: crop with draggable handles, highlight pen, blur and redact sensitive areas, pixel ruler, shape drawing (rectangle, circle, arrow, line), and text labels. 
  • Mockup Generator
    Device mockups now show a taller, richer screenshot of the website instead of just the visible area. 
    Drop shadow now works correctly on light backgrounds.

Case conversions (UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case, Sentence case, camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, kebab-case), 8 text transforms, and Find & Replace with regex support. Platform character limit bars for Twitter, Meta description, page title, and LinkedIn.

  • Color Palette and Typography in Inspector — Scan Page button inside the CSS Inspector extracts all colors used on the page as clickable swatches and lists all fonts with their size ranges and weights.
  • SEO Report PDF Export — Download PDF button in the SEO panel exports a formatted A4 report with all sections, score, and a DevToolkit header.

Improvements
