Free and open source for macOS 14+

Share your screen, not your surprises.

Privfox Screen helps you prepare your Mac for a presentation—and gives you a fast, deliberate Privacy Curtain when something unexpected appears.

No account. No analytics. No cloud sync. No network calls.

Built for the moment before you share

A calmer way to present.

Privfox keeps the important parts close: a short preparation checklist, a trusted-app reminder, and a full-display cover you can trigger in a second.

Presentation Mode

Take a quick, intentional pass through the things that commonly get missed before a meeting begins.

Safe Apps

Optionally get a local warning when an app outside your own trusted list becomes frontmost.

Privacy Curtain

Cover every connected display with an opaque curtain, then dismiss it with a button or your shortcut.

No silent monitoring

Private by design. Honest by design.

Privfox Screen is a deliberate presentation companion, not surveillance software. It never reads your notifications, screen contents, files, or typed text.

Read the privacy approach

A useful boundary

It helps you react. It does not promise the impossible.

macOS does not let an app reliably identify every active share in every meeting app, or block all screenshots and recordings. Privfox says that plainly.

What it is

A checklist, local Safe Apps warning, and emergency curtain for your connected displays.

What it is not

It is not a universal screen-share detector, a capture blocker, antivirus, or a guarantee against exposure.

First release in preparation

Privfox Screen will be available as a signed, notarized download.

The first public build is being prepared for GitHub Releases. Before downloading, you will be able to see the version, release notes, checksum, and source code in one place.
