Description
Record your browser actions and instantly generate annotated step-by-step guides in PDF, Word, HTML, or ZIP. GuideSnap turns any browser workflow into a professional step-by-step guide — automatically. Just click "Add New", choose a guide type, give it a title, and start clicking. GuideSnap captures every action with annotated screenshots (highlighted element, step badge, click point) and generates a polished document you can share with your team. ────────────────────────────────────── KEY FEATURES ────────────────────────────────────── ▸ Three guide types • How to Tutorial — annotated screenshots with orange highlight box and step numbers • Employee Training Guide — same annotated flow, structured for onboarding • Capture Screens — clean screenshots with no annotations, for visual documentation ▸ Smart step capture • Clicks, form inputs, navigation, and scrolling are all captured automatically • Password fields are always skipped — your credentials are never recorded • Semantic target resolution finds the meaningful element (button, link, input) even when you click on a child icon or span ▸ Full editing suite • Drag-and-drop step reordering • Edit any step description inline • Delete steps you don't need • Add manual steps at any point ▸ Four export formats • PDF — landscape A4, branded header, one step per page • HTML — self-contained single file with sticky sidebar navigation • Word (DOCX) — professional document with headings and page breaks • ZIP — raw PNG screenshots + guide.json + README viewer ▸ 100% local — zero cloud • All data is stored in your browser (IndexedDB + chrome.storage) • No account required, no servers, no analytics, no tracking • Works completely offline ────────────────────────────────────── HOW TO USE ────────────────────────────────────── 1.

Export to PDF, Word, HTML, or ZIP ────────────────────────────────────── PRIVACY ────────────────────────────────────── GuideSnap is privacy-first by design: • All guide data stays in your browser — nothing is ever sent to a server • No analytics, no crash reporting, no telemetry • Password fields (type="password") are explicitly excluded from capture • The recording overlay is hidden before each screenshot so it never appears in your guides ────────────────────────────────────── PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED ────────────────────────────────────── • tabs / activeTab — required to capture a screenshot of the current tab when you click • scripting — required to inject the recording overlay into web pages • storage — required to save your guides and recording state locally in your browser • offscreen — required to annotate screenshots using the Canvas API (service workers cannot access Canvas directly) • alarms — required to keep the background service worker alive during long recordings • Access to all sites — required so you can record on any website you visit ────────────────────────────────────── SUPPORT ────────────────────────────────────── Found a bug or have a feature request?
