Blur your messy desktop to hide it during screen sharing
Hush is a tiny Mac menu bar app that instantly hides your desktop clutter when you're on a call or giving a presentation. One hotkey - and your desktop icons, dock, wallpaper, and widgets are covered with a blur overlay. Your app windows stay on top like normal. There are two modes: Desktop Mode - blurs your entire desktop background so nothing personal is visible while you share your screen. Focus Mode - pick which apps stay visible and everything else gets blurred out.
I built Hush because i share my screen a lot and there's always something behind my windows that shouldn't be there - personal chats, random notes, a messy desktop with a hundred icons. especially when switching between apps, for a second everything is visible.
Hush sits in your menu bar and with one hotkey blurs your entire desktop - icons, dock, wallpaper, all hidden. your windows stay on top like normal.
The feature i use most is Focus Mode - you pick which apps stay visible and the rest gets blurred out. So when you switch between windows there's nothing embarrassing flashing behind them.
