A long page never fits in one screenshot. Pick the screenshots you already took, or record your screen while you scroll. Either way, Scroll Stitch joins them into one tall image, right on your iPhone. HOW IT WORKS — FROM SCREENSHOTS 1. Take screenshots as you scroll, or use ones you already have. 2. Pick them in the app, or share them to Scroll Stitch from Photos. 3. Check the order — they are joined in the order you picked them, and one tap re-sorts them by capture time. 4. Save the long image, share it, or keep it in the app. HOW IT WORKS — FROM A SCREEN RECORDING 1. Record your screen while scrolling about half a screen at a time, pausing for about half a second at each stop. Each screen needs to overlap the previous one a little. 2. Import the recording, or share it to Scroll Stitch from Photos — it will be waiting the next time you open the app. 3. Mark the scrolling area so fixed headers and toolbars do not repeat. 4. Review the detected frames — remove ones you do not want, or add a missed frame in between. 5. Save the long image or share it anywhere. BUILT FOR LONG CONTENT - Chat and message threads - Order histories and receipts - Articles, recipes, and long notes - App screens for bug reports and documentation - Settings screens and dashboards YOU STAY IN CONTROL Scroll Stitch finds the overlapping parts and joins them, but depending on the capture a seam can still come out wrong. So you are never stuck with what it produces. Any seam can be adjusted by hand, and a header or footer that repeats at a seam can be trimmed away, without starting the whole thing over. Very fast flicks and screens with video playing are the hardest to align, and that is exactly where hand-tuning a seam earns its keep. KEEP RESULTS IN THE APP A long capture often holds things you would not want anyone else to see, so results do not have to go into your photo library at all. Save one into a group you name, open it again anytime however long it is, and share it out when you need it. Keeping a result does not use up a free export — only sharing one does. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE Every step happens on your device. Your screenshots and recordings are never uploaded, and the app collects no data at all. There are no accounts and no sign-in. FREE TO TRY, ONE-TIME UNLOCK The first 5 exports are free, with every feature available. After that, a single purchase removes the limit forever. No subscription.
