Screenshot a website as a tablet shows it

To see how a website looks on a tablet, paste its address into CurlShot and choose Tablet. CurlShot opens the page with a tablet-sized screen, the tablet's pixel density and a tablet browser identity, so the site serves the layout it gives to tablets, and returns a screenshot of it. The API has presets for the iPad, iPad mini, iPad Air, iPad Pro, Galaxy Tab S9 and Pixel Tablet.

How to screenshot a website as a tablet shows it in three steps

  1. 1

    Paste the address of the website into the box.

  2. 2

    Choose "Tablet".

  3. 3

    Press "Take the screenshot", then download the image.

Every tablet you can pick, upright and on its side

Tablets sit between phones and laptops, and many sites switch layout right there: a menu that collapses, a table that scrolls, two columns that become one. Each tablet preset sets the screen, the pixel density, touch support and the tablet browser identity in one option.

Add viewport_landscape=true to turn the tablet on its side. The screen sizes swap, as in the table.

  • The image is the screen size times the density: an iPad at density 2 gives a 1,640 × 2,360 image of its first screen.
  • Add full_page=true to capture the tablet layout down to the bottom.
  • For a width that no preset has, set viewport_width, viewport_height and viewport_mobile=true yourself.

Questions people ask

Paste the address into CurlShot and choose Tablet. The page is opened with the screen size and browser identity of a tablet, and you get a screenshot of what it shows.

With the API, yes. Add viewport_landscape=true and the tablet is turned on its side before the screenshot is taken.

Which tablets are available?

The API has presets for the iPad, iPad mini, iPad Air, iPad Pro 11 and 13 inch, Galaxy Tab S9 and Pixel Tablet, listed with their sizes on this page. You can also set any screen width and height yourself.
