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.

Is the site down? Getting an SSL. I assume this might be the product hunt hug of death?
Love the simplicity here. One hotkey, no config, just works. That's the kind of Mac utility I respect. Does it play nicely with Stage Manager, or is it purely its own overlay approach?
finally. a product that understands that my desktop is a crime scene and a work environment at the same time
Simple premise, I could deffo see myelf using this even while recording a video.
Wish you had launched this earlier, would've saved me countless embarrassing times of having people see what I have in the background when sharing my screen 😅
Bruh, I need this hahah. Does it also blur other screens for example I am sharing with 2 or 3 monitors?

Hush was hunted by Oleksandr Kozlovskyi. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
