TidyShare is a lightweight macOS menu bar app built to help you get screen-share ready in seconds. Instead of making you manually clean up your desktop before every call, it gives you a single place to prepare your Mac and reduce the chance of exposing something private by accident.
At its core,
TidyShare turns a messy, real-world workspace into a safer presentation mode. With one click or a keyboard shortcut, it can hide desktop icons, enable Do Not Disturb, clean up browser chrome, hide selected private apps, blank your wallpaper, hide desktop widgets, and tuck away the Dock so your screen feels more intentional and less distracting.
What makes it especially useful is that it is designed around temporary protection, not permanent lockdown. TidyShare tracks the changes it makes during a session and restores your normal setup when you are finished, so the app fits naturally into everyday work instead of forcing you into a separate “meeting environment.” If a permission is missing or a step needs attention, it surfaces that clearly instead of pretending everything is covered.
The experience also feels practical rather than technical. There is a polished menu bar control surface, a broader overview window for reviewing protections, a settings area for tailoring behavior, optional countdown before protection starts, and customizable app lists for what should be hidden. The result is an app that helps you share with more confidence, move faster before meetings, and keep control over what other people see.
