How to Combine Screenshots Into One Long Image
2026-05-26
Some things are simply too tall for one screen: a full chat conversation, a step-by-step tutorial, a long article, a receipt thread. Sending a dozen separate screenshots is messy and easy to get out of order. Stitching them into one long image solves it — the recipient just scrolls through it in the exact sequence you arranged. Here's how to make a clean one.
Capture consistently
The cleanest stitches start with consistent screenshots. When capturing a scrolling conversation or page, keep the same width every time (same device, same zoom) and try to avoid overlapping the same content twice. A little planning here saves a lot of cleanup later — mismatched widths are the main reason stitched images end up with gaps or misaligned edges.
Stitch them in order
Upload your screenshots to the stitch images tool in the order you want them, then choose vertical (for chats and pages) or horizontal (for timelines or wide panoramas). Each image is joined edge to edge into a single file. For a seamless vertical result, make sure all the images share the same width; the tool joins them top to bottom exactly as you provide them.
Trim and shrink before sharing
Before or after stitching, crop away repeated headers, status bars or empty margins so the long image reads cleanly. A tall stitched image can become a large file, so compress the final result before you send or post it. Posting to a platform that re-compresses images, like a WeChat article? Stitch first, then optimize the single result. Everything is processed locally — your screenshots never leave your device.
