Tab Privacy while sharing screens
Hi everyone,
I am working on a solution, which will allow users to hide and show private tabs in one click. Private tabs are tabs that are expected to be hidden while the user is sharing a screen with someone. The user can make a complete domain as a private or specific URL.
Motivation: I have many times seen spending a good amount of time, to make sure that all my private tabs are closed before I start sharing my screen. As a developer, I have mistakenly shown a private tab while doing the screen share. which is not good. Every time I start screen share, I have to be more conscious.
And when the screen share is done, I also want to go back to my private stuff, I was working on.
This was the challenge I have been facing. So thought of solving it, by creating a solution
I usually open new browser window and stream that window.
Thanks every one, I think all the points are pretty valid. I will still go and finish it till the end for learning purposes.
Thanks community you are awesome
Wondering why you don't reduce the browser with all your private tabs into your dock and utilize a second "just for the presentation" browser instance?
If most things you can share just a window in place of a screen, so you open a new browser just for the share.
Thanks for the feedback. Yes you are right but as a developer i have to work on many things at the same time hence many tabs. Screen sharing with fellow team mates requires more than 1 tab to be shared e.g 4 tabs or more.
In that case , just opening a new browser with all those tabs open will take some effort.
Thanks
Opening 4 tabs vs
Finding a specialised app
Installing and trusting the app
Paying for an app?
Your trying to solve 4 sec of work with a 3rd party? I don't get it
Thanks I appreciate your feedback. And there will be no payments.its a browser extension.

As with a lot of folks these days, have some experience with remote calls for work so can share some thoughts. Happy to have a call to give feedback on this if it'll help. I'm trying out half-an-hour calls with IndieHackers to trade feedback. Give me a shout at [email protected] if you want to schedule a call.
