# Long chat screenshot: a whole conversation in one image

To screenshot a whole conversation, take overlapping screenshots while you scroll through the chat, or screen-record the scroll, and open them in FullPage. It stitches the messages into one long image, ignores the status bar and the empty space between bubbles, and lets you cover names and numbers before you share.

- The whole conversation, in order, in one image
- Easy to keep as a record or send as proof
- Hide names and numbers before sharing

## How to save a whole chat conversation as one long screenshot
1. **Scroll to the start of the chat.** Open the conversation and scroll up to where you want the image to begin.
2. **Capture it.** Take overlapping screenshots as you scroll down, or start a screen recording and scroll once.
3. **Open in FullPage.** Select the screenshots in Photos and share them to FullPage, or tap Videos for a recording.
4. **Cover private details.** Use pen, arrow, mosaic or stickers to hide names, numbers or addresses.
5. **Save and share.** Export as PNG, JPG or PDF.

## Why do chat screenshots need a smarter stitcher?
Chat screenshots are hard to join: the background is mostly flat, and short messages like “ok” repeat. FullPage ignores flat rows when it looks for the overlap and requires real matching content, so a long empty stretch cannot fool it.

## How do I hide names and numbers?
Before you share a conversation, cover what should stay private. Mosaic is a Pro feature, and marks stay editable until you export.

- Pen and arrow to point at the message that matters.
- Mosaic to hide names, phone numbers and addresses.
- Stickers to cover a detail with an emoji.

## Which chat apps does it work with?
All of them. FullPage does not connect to your messaging accounts. It works with the screenshots and recordings you take yourself, so it supports Messages, WhatsApp and any other chat app.
