Meet-ready setup

Prepare overlays for the areas you share most often: sidebars, user records, notification panels, address bars, account menus, and internal metrics.

Works with tab sharing

Because blur runs in the browser, it is useful when presenting a Chrome tab in Meet or recording a meeting recap. Build the blur layout before joining, then keep the walkthrough moving.

How to prepare before sharing

When setting up Blur sensitive information in Google Meet (Hide Sensitive Info in Google Meet | Screen Privacy Blur), Screen Privacy Blur runs 100% locally in your Chromium browser so private records, credentials, and financial balances remain hidden or replaced with realistic demo data before any frame is shared.

  1. Open the browser tab or desktop context you plan to present.
  2. Place blur overlays over the private fields that can appear during the walkthrough.
  3. Review the visible area, then start the call or recording.
