## What is URL to Photo?

URL to Photo takes full-page snapshots of web pages. 

Use the built in mini web browser to enter the URL of the web page for which you want to take a full page snapshot. The  browser supports navigation and search.

The photo of the web page includes even those parts of the page that may not be displayed in the browser because it is too wide or long. 

To snapshot the page tap the camera button or select ‘Snapshot’ from the main menu.

After the picture is taken you have the option to save, share, tile and preview it.

Web pages that are very long will have snapshot images that are very long also. In this case you can tile the photo from the main menu 'Photo Actions' submenu. 

Choose 'Tile Photo' and the snapshot image will be cropped into image segments that will then be arranged in a rectangular array.

Note: This app works best on web pages that fully load. Web pages that are dynamic or continue to update while being viewed may not yield the expected image.

### 3/5 — The whole image please

*2022-06-14*

I love URL to Photo- when it works. I love the camera sound. It’s frustrating if I preview the photo and it’s correct I can’t just save that one. If it’s right I don’t want to have to take it again.

That’s trivial though, compared to the bigger issue. It’s great when the app grabs the entire image but it doesn’t always do that. I don’t know how to fix it. I spent a good deal of time reloading a page from different browsers, re-centering the browser image in the app… It didn’t work. All I got was the left-hand side of the page and half of the middle. The same thing happened with a US map; with the high resolution image I was able to get only the West coast to Georgia and south of Colorado Springs. 

What’s the fix? I hope there’s one because I take a lot of screenshots to illustrate my point when I forward a page to somebody. Not having dozens of screenshots that Tailor may not manage to stitch correctly and with Long Picture’s fairly recent update means I can’t do it manually, has been a timesaver, … when it works.

### 5/5 — Huge snapshot

*2020-01-13*

So if you only want a small part of the webpage edit it by croping, other than that use the offline app to pdf it.

### 4/5 — Love It!

*2018-07-28, version 1.0.5*

If I could have an option to pay to remove the ads, I’d give this app five stars. That’s the only thing I don’t like. Otherwise it’s brilliant!

### 1/5 — Meh

*2013-11-01, version 1.0.1*

Doesn't capture the full web page. The content are trunked.

Low image quality. The words get blurry and hard to read.

### 3/5 — Ok

*2013-10-13*

Ok

### 1/5 — No good 😔.

*2013-02-25*

What can I say? I was hoping this app would work but it doesn't really. It does not work because bad resolution and cuts a part (side) is the screenshot. Not worth getting it.
