Stealth Mode

Understand the shared view, local window visibility, mouse passthrough, and shortcuts.

Stealth Mode

Keep the assistant out of screen sharing while you can still read answers, follow transcripts, and use it locally.

Get started

  1. Enable Stealth Mode and choose the screen or window to share in your meeting app.
  2. Keep using voice, screenshots, and answers in your local assistant.
  3. Join from another device to confirm the shared view.

Sharing behavior depends on the operating system, meeting app, and sharing mode. Check the remote view again after changing them. See Platform Guidance.

Transparency, stealth, and click-through

  • Transparent overlay: reduce the assistant's background opacity to see the meeting or question beneath it. Use Advanced Settings or Cmd/Ctrl + [ / ]. This changes your local view.
  • Stealth Mode: keeps the assistant out of supported shared captures while you still see it.
  • Click-through: sends clicks to the app behind the assistant. The client manages passthrough; interactive areas for capture, submission, and settings still support mouse input. There is no need to look for the old passthrough shortcut.

Choose a theme and opacity for your workspace

Window management and the taskbar

Use Cmd/Ctrl + Arrow to move, Cmd/Ctrl + = / - to zoom, and Cmd/Ctrl + R to reset the layout. With multiple monitors, choose Settings โ†’ Display before moving or capturing.

The Windows assistant stays out of the taskbar by default. Use Ctrl + B to restore the local window. On macOS, Dock visibility is managed by the client's window behavior; Settings currently has no separate Dock-hide switch.

Protecting shortcut events

The client protects its own shortcuts to reduce their transmission to other apps. Current Windows builds include this protection and normally need no legacy extension. It is separate from screen-sharing protection and does not hide every ordinary key you type.

If the system or another app captures a shortcut, use the toolbar's mouse controls or change the combination in Advanced Settings. See Shortcuts & Mouse Controls.

For input issues, see Shortcuts and Conflicts. On Windows, see Keyboard Protection.

Troubleshooting

  • You cannot see the assistant either: press Cmd/Ctrl + B to restore it. Local hiding is separate from Stealth Mode.
  • The assistant appears remotely: confirm Stealth Mode is on and check your sharing setup in Platform Guidance.
  • The window is misplaced after changing displays: press Cmd/Ctrl + R to reset the layout, then reposition it.
