v0.2.0

Copy and download any web table into Excel, Google Sheets, CSV or Markdown exactly as the page shows it — with real .xlsx downloads, reliable one-click copy and an interface in 11 languages.

Added

Excel .xlsx downloads

  • Download any table as a real .xlsx workbook with a bold, frozen and filterable header row, numbers and dates stored as values, and IDs with leading zeros kept as text. No row limit.

Open in Google Sheets

  • Copy a table and open a new Google Sheet in one step, from the popup or the preview, then paste with Ctrl/Cmd+V.

Feedback for every copy

  • Every copy from the page toolbar, the right-click menu, the keyboard shortcut or a manual pick now shows a short confirmation with the row and column count, or the reason it failed.

Interface in 11 languages

  • English, Ukrainian, Polish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Japanese and Russian are now complete, with correct plural forms. The store name and description are localized too.

Improved

Copies that paste straight into cells

  • CSV and TSV copies now also carry a table, so Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers and Notion paste into cells, while text editors still get plain CSV/TSV.

Cells exactly as the page shows them

  • Text hidden by the page, screen-reader duplicates and footnote markers like [1] are left out; icons keep their meaning ("Available"), checkboxes and inputs keep their values, and lists keep their line breaks.

Table structure on real sites

  • Multi-row headers are combined, repeated header rows and footnote rows are dropped, data grids are read in the right order, selection checkbox columns are removed, and partly loaded virtual grids say how many rows are loaded.

Smarter detection

  • Layout tables and card grids are no longer listed as tables, data tables nested inside layouts are found, and a table you pick by hand is always kept.

A preview you can trust

  • The preview no longer changes numbers, dates or yes/no values unless you choose a column type, cleaning options apply right away, edits survive when the source tab closes, and "Filtered" copies every matching row.

Works right after install and updates

  • Tabs that were open before installing or updating TableSnap work without a reload, and pages TableSnap cannot read (Chrome pages, the Web Store, PDFs, local files) explain why.

Faster and lighter

  • Scanning reads only each table's headers and first rows, pages without tables are not rescanned, the on-page script is about a third of its former size, and the package is less than half as large.

Accessibility

  • Visible focus everywhere, named grid cells, announced status messages and keyboard support across the popup, preview and settings.

Fixed

  • Copy as CSV, TSV and JSON failed in Chrome; it works again from every entry point.
  • Large numbers such as 8,336,817 or decimals like 1.080 could be rewritten on copy or download.
  • Spreadsheet formulas in a page could run in Excel after pasting; formula-like cells are now protected, while ordinary values stay unchanged.
  • Web pages could trigger TableSnap's toolbar actions; only your own clicks and keys count now.
  • "Auto-detect tables after page load" did not fully stop page scanning; turning it off now does.
  • "Capture + next" could press form or delete buttons; it now only follows real pagination.
  • "Load more" lists no longer duplicate rows in a collection.
  • Keyboard shortcuts no longer interfere with typing in text fields.

Privacy

  • The privacy policy and settings now say exactly what TableSnap reads and when. Everything still runs locally; nothing is sent anywhere.
  • TableSnap no longer requests the activeTab permission and no longer exposes its files to websites.

Notes

  • JSON keys from number-like headers now start with "_" (for example "_2024"), and duplicate headers get the next free suffix.
Released

v0.1.1

Focused this release on preview reliability, calmer editing UX, and a public-facing release site.

Added

Spreadsheet-like editing

  • Added multi-cell paste into preview grids with support for tabular clipboard blocks, automatic draft growth, and undo.

Local selection actions

  • Added a sheet-level selection action bar with quick copy, delete, and clear actions next to the table.

Public release site

  • Added the public marketing site, changelog page, support pages, legal pages, and blog foundation for SEO and GEO discoverability.

Improved

Preview workspace polish

  • Refined the full-window preview with a sheet-style canvas, quieter hover controls, collapsible secondary panels, inline row and column add actions, and clearer visual hierarchy.

Drag-and-drop editing

  • Reworked row, column, and collection reordering on top of dnd-kit with safer collision handling, better insertion markers, keyboard support, and more predictable drag states.

Editing feedback

  • Added toast feedback, undo actions, and spreadsheet-like keyboard navigation for row and column editing flows.

Fixed

Collection reliability

  • Fixed unstable collection item IDs and content-blind deduplication so merged tables no longer collide or silently drop distinct pages with the same shape.

Capture and shortcut behavior

  • Fixed site-specific format handling for shortcuts and context menu actions, tightened Capture + next pagination targeting, and added safer background messaging behavior on restricted or unready tabs.
