### 4/5 — Good but... please help me.

*2019-10-15, version 2.3.2*

How can I remove small thumbnail window view after shot? It is distracting during reading and covers some text at left bottom.
Please help me.

### 2/5 — Poor quality capture

*2018-01-12*

Capturing is pretty straight forward and fast, but the result image has poor quality and low resolution. I can’t use it. Requesting a refund with Apple.

### 3/5 — Good but needs improvement

*2017-08-30*

In general, it works fine. However, I feel it requires few improvements. There were few problems I faced using this app: First, it doesn't allow me to save pages as PDF. I've tried to use this feature on multiple occasions but to no avail. Second, when the pages are too long, it doesn't save the screenshot page into my photo album. Third, this is just a minor inconvenience- when I use bookmark feature to open the app, it brings me to the home page instead of the page I opened the app with. I wish the developers would consider these points for next update. Other than above-mentioned problems, the quality of the screenshot pages is good.

**Developer response:** Hi solarthrottle 

Firstly thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts of Page Grab with us, as you can learn just as much from a negative review as a positive one but let me see if I can help you get the most out of page grab as possible so lets start with your first concern which is convert to PDF

PDF Conversion: 
So when you click convert to PDF an alert pops up telling you the name of the file for example "google.pdf" it takes the name from the title of the page you captured and stored it in the apps "documents folder" now depending on device to get to the document folder: 

On iPad
There should be a button that looks like a folder in the bottom toolbar.
On iPhone/iPod
The share button which looks like a square with an arrow pointing upward which is also in the bottom toolbar, this opens a menu with a few options and select "Document Folder" then you should see a list of all the PDF's or other images you have saved there.

Large images and camera roll:
I have just tested this on the latest version of page grab with the longest page i could find and it saved ok to the camera roll, however I did notice that a few iOS updates ago some strange behaviour with the photos app crashing and I eventually figured out that it was due to having very long and very large (100MB+) images in there that I had captured with Page Grab and I had to delete them all on my Mac to make the photos app work again but I believe Apple have now fixed this bug. So I would try this feature again on version 2.3 to see if the issue is still there and if so please let me know and I'll check it out further (contact info should be on this page).

Bookmarklet:
Yes this is a little bug, but as with all bugs there is always a workaround, Page Grab needs to be open and running in the background for this feature to work so you could either tap the Bookmarklet once which will open page grab then go back to your browser and tap it again to bring the page or open Page Grab then tap the bookmarklet. This seems to be because if PG app is closed it doesn't receive the page URL correctly but I will add this to the list of things to look in to fixing and if now I'll add it to the bookmarklet instructions in the help section so it is clear for our users.

Sorry for the rambling reply, I just thought is you took the time to write an honest review, then the least I could do was reply in kind.

Thanks again for the review and I hope you continue to enjoy using our apps 😀. GC

### 4/5 — Great capture app

*2015-11-09*

This is the best I've seen and I use it 20-30 times a day. Takes a snapshot without scrolling and captures in jpg saving space, especially for large sites where png might be too large.

Love it!

### 3/5 — Better, but lots of trial and error

*2015-06-17*

Can "grab," save, and email photos on web sites, but instructions are vague, so lots of trial and error.

### 2/5 — Great -- when it works

*2014-08-10, version 2.2.0*

More often than not, this app crashes when I try to capture a long web page -- very frustrating! When it does save the image, though, it does a good job of preserving a good-quality shot of it.

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2014-03-05*

It worked perfectly..

### 5/5 — Good Apps

*2013-07-24*

Bought this to screen capture maps from web. Did the job exactly as I wanted. Very satisfied with purchase. So far no negatives.

### 4/5 — Seems to work as described

*2013-07-11*

Just started to use it on my iPad.
Creating a pdf and then mailing it is nice feature.

### 5/5 — Great App Defiantly 5 Stars

*2013-05-04, version 1.0*

This is great for me to save web pages of interesting stories recipes, Maps or just nice pictures and been able to share them from with in the App is just a bonus, 

The great feature is if you need to save something then need to see it on your iPad when your not at home with no Internet this App makes it possible as every web page is stored in your Camera Roll as an Image.

So Yes I would defiantly recommend you try this App after all its only 69p

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2019-10-18*

I completed all steps and created bookmark but did not work or do anything to copy a page from digital newspaper as a PDF

**Developer response:** Hi. 

This should be possible but you have to capture as an image first and then convert to PDF format, if you hit the send feedback button in the app and email me I will help you to achieve your aim.

### 1/5 — Piece of sh**

*2017-09-29, version 2.2.1*

Snipping tool, how hard is it to replicate.......

### 1/5 — Freezes like the Arctic in August

*2017-08-09*

Constantly closes requiring the user to restart the application and again search for the lost program and specific page.   It is also very inflexible during the short periods that it is actually working.  It is a great idea and it will be a great app if they can get work properly  in iOS.

**Developer response:** Hi. 

I know it’s been an ice age since your review but developers couldn’t reply back then. We did have issues with an iOS version that caused a memory leak and as a result crashed the app..... Since then the issue was fixed but I whilst we waited on that I added a second capture method you can use by a long-press on the grab button, I did make the fix but I failed to let users know it was there. I hope it’s thawed out and working well now. Thanks :)

### 1/5 — Doesn't Work!

*2017-04-03*

This app keeps crashing. Does not work as it should. Good idea if it would work.

### 1/5 — Reste à l'amélioration !

*2015-03-13, version 2.2.0*

Quand on coupe l'image que la page internet a donné on perd la qualité l'image devient alors brouillé illisible donc c'est de la marde cette application.

### 1/5 — Urgent need for improvement

*2014-07-11, version 2.2.0*

Good idea but

1-) When you save a long web page, the fonction crop is ridiculous (really too small) to see what you do. 

2-) I dont understand how apple accept an application on the store with so many crash?

### 1/5 — Be aware

*2014-01-11, version 2.1.4*

When you crop or edit the captured screen the image quality is so bad you just barely can read the text. You can try different zoom levels but it doesn't do anything. With such a bad quality all the fancy features are useless. Save your money.

### 1/5 — Simply doesn't work

*2013-12-19*

Grabs don't make it to the camera roll. Save your $0.99!

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2013-12-18*

Eternal

### 1/5 — Low resolution

*2013-06-30, version 2.0*

Captures entire pages fine, but resolution for larger web pages is accordingly lower, so that for very long pages it is virtually useless. Wouldn't mind my money back.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2024-03-15*

Exactly what I thought it would be, and wanted. Allows you to save a page or image on a page. I think the quality of the saved image exceeds that of a regular screen capture. Allows basic editing of the image, also. Not an expensive app, and pay once only. I simply won’t pay for subscription apps, so was happy to give it a try, and wasn’t disappointed. Nice capture app.

### 5/5 — Top App!

*2020-02-18*

One of the most useful apps I have purchased. Very elegant and easy to use. Excellent!

**Developer response:** WOW thank you for the awesome review. I’m so grateful and I’ve just submitted a new update with UI and functionality tweaks, so keep an eye out for that. Happy Grabbing :)

### 5/5 — Best for hard to grab pages

*2017-10-14*

I use this a lot to grab a page I'm viewing in Google books, which is a projection that otherwise can't be recorded.  You have to paste and copy the URL into the app though.

**Developer response:** Hi Lukunor, thank you for taking the time to review, it means a lot to me that people take the time to share their thoughts and concerns, either positive or negative as they show us which way we need to go, there is an easier way than copy n paste the URL. If you go to the help pages and follow the instructions for "Install in Safari" once you have completed the instruction tutorial you will have a Bookmark in safari (or other browsers like Chrome) called Capture with Page Grab when you tap this bookmark it opens Page Grab app and imports the page you were viewing ready to be grabbed. But please remember Page Grab app needs to be open and running in the background for this to work or your could just do it twice if the app was closed the first time. 

Thanks Again for the review and and being a loyal customer, I hope you enjoy our recent update as much as the previous one.

All the best from GC-Development Team

### 5/5 — Great Photo Capture App

*2017-05-06*

Allows you grab a photo or the entire screen and edit or save to edit later. Works wonderfully!

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the kind reply, it means the world to us that people like yourself are using our apps, loving them and taking time out of their busy lives to to let us and other know. So I just wanted to say thank you! for that and I hope you enjoy our latest update just as much 🙂 

Best regards GC

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-03-04*

This app does exactly what it says, simply and easily. It captures the page. You would think there would be many apps in the App Store that would offer this relatively straightforward functionality but I had a tough time finding one until I stumbled across this one. 
I forget whether or not I paid for it, but I would pay $10-15 dollars for it. It worked for me when I really needed it by capturing the contents of the page so that I could send it to support staff for a company to resolve an issue I was having. They needed to see the screen and I used this app, and it worked. I also use it to study by capturing charts and tables I have to memorize. It's quicker, in some cases, than using an index card program. A great app!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-01-26*

Very easy to use 
Can keep all your pics saved in full resolution and easy to capture web pages

### 5/5 — My top choice

*2014-04-25, version 2.2.0*

Good looking, reliable and packed with features  - Page Grab is a winner

I particularly love the"crop view" feature and use it all the time

### 5/5 — Great update five stars again

*2014-04-24, version 2.2.0*

This is a great update, I love the new crop window and I'm sure it is better quality after the crop. Again this is my must have app

Defiantly Five Stars, Thank You!!

### 5/5 — Love It

*2014-04-07*

This app does exactly what I have been needing for my studies.  Thank You!!

**Developer response:** Hi FreakinSweeet No Thank You!! for taking the time to review our app and it really fills us with joy to see people love to use what we made and take the time to let us know and other. So Thank You and good luck with your studies 📒😊. GC

### 5/5 — Great app
