What you get

Keep your audience and yourself focused on the window that matters.

You get a clearer screen without rearranging your desktop or closing other apps. Hush blurs or dims the area around your active window, leaving your work visible and usable. You can hide desktop icons and widgets behind a tint, blur, or your own image while leaving your files untouched.

When you share your screen, you can have Hush apply your preferred setup automatically and switch off afterward. For tutorials and live demos, a spotlight follows your cursor so viewers can track what you’re pointing at. You can adjust its size or freeze it in place when you need to explain something.

Between calls, you can keep background windows dimmed as you move between apps, choose exceptions that stay visible, and briefly reveal everything by holding Fn. On multiple displays, you choose which screens get covered.

  • Share without desktop clutter

    You can hide icons and widgets without moving files or closing the apps you need.

  • Guide viewers through demos

    You can draw attention to your cursor with a spotlight that follows your movements or stays fixed while you explain.

  • Keep background distractions subdued

    You keep your active window clear while surrounding windows dim or blur, even as you switch apps.

  • Reuse your call setup

    You can save your preferred sharing setup and have Hush turn on and off with screen sharing.

Best for

  • You regularly share a cluttered desktop on calls
  • You create tutorials or give live software demos

Skip it if

You don’t need it if your desktop already stays uncluttered and surrounding windows don’t distract you or your viewers.
