Invisiwind (short for Invisible Window) is an application that allows you to hide certain windows when sharing your full screen.
So .. what does it do exactly?
I think this is best explained with a couple of screenshots I took during a Zoom meeting:
The screenshot on the left is what I see. The one on the right is what everyone else sees.
Using this tool, firefox and slack have been hidden so anyone watching the screenshare is unable to see those windows. However, I can continue to use them as usual on my side.
Note: this tool works with any app (MS Teams, Discord, OBS, etc) and not just Zoom.
So .. what does it do exactly? (for technical people)
