ScreenShield — Blur Sensitive Info for Screen Sharing

Instantly blur any text, image or area on any webpage. Perfect for screen recording, live demos & presentations.

Protect your sensitive information during screen sharing, recordings, and presentations — without post-editing your videos. ScreenShield lets you instantly blur any element, text, image, or area on any webpage with a single click. Unlike other blur extensions, your blurs actually persist after page reload — no more losing your privacy setup every time you refresh. Whether you're doing a product demo, recording a tutorial, or sharing your screen on a call, ScreenShield ensures private data stays hidden before you hit record. CORE FEATURES ✦ One-Click Element Blur — Hover and click any element on the page (emails, names, balances, account numbers, API keys) to blur it instantly. ✦ Area Blur — Draw a rectangle anywhere on the page to blur an entire region. Perfect for hiding dashboard sections, sidebars, or notification panels. ✦ Persistent Blur (Keep Blur) — Your blurs are saved and automatically re-applied when you revisit the page or reload. No other free blur extension does this reliably. ✦ Adjustable Blur Intensity — Control how strong the blur effect is with a slider (1-20 levels). Light blur for presentations, heavy blur for full privacy. ✦ Hide Tab Title — Replace your tab's title and favicon with a generic icon so your browser tabs don't reveal sensitive information during screen sharing. ✦ Keyboard Shortcuts — Toggle blur mode without touching the mouse. Ctrl+Shift+B to start blurring, Ctrl+Shift+X to clear all blurs. ✦ Undo / Redo — Made a mistake? Easily step back without clearing everything. WHO IS THIS FOR? → Remote workers sharing screens on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or Webex → Content creators recording tutorials and walkthroughs on YouTube, Loom, or OBS → Developers doing live demos while protecting API keys, tokens, and test data → Sales teams presenting dashboards to prospects without exposing other client data → Educators and trainers running live classes with real examples → Support agents sharing screens with customers while keeping internal tools private → Anyone giving a presentation and wanting to hide personal bookmarks, emails, or notifications WHY SCREENSHIELD?

This is the feature users of other extensions have been begging for. ✦ No account required — Install and start blurring. No email signup, no license key activation, no API keys. Zero friction. ✦ 100% local & private — All blur data is stored locally in your browser using Chrome's built-in storage. No data is uploaded to any server. No analytics, no tracking, no cloud processing. ✦ Works everywhere — Compatible with every website, web app, and SaaS dashboard.
