Changelog

Everything new in Safe Screen Share — features, improvements, and fixes shipped in every release.

  1. v2.1.0

    • Redesigned the in-page toolbar with a lighter, friendlier look: white pill container, circular icon buttons with labels beneath, and a prominent brand-blue "Done" button
    • New "Blur Text" mode — select any text on a page to blur just that range, without hiding the surrounding element
    • SmartBlur now detects common full-page overlay sites (like bank dashboards) and blurs the whole page, instead of trying to match individual elements
    • Added a "Before you share" checklist to the popup as a last-second reminder to hide bookmarks, notifications, and other things the extension can't blur
    • Improved meeting-site URL detection so Meeting Mode triggers more reliably across video-call providers
    • Clicking SmartBlur now gives a visible pulse on the toolbar so you know the scan ran
  2. v2.0.1

    • Inline confirmation dialog in the popup for smoother, less disruptive actions
    • Remove individual browsers from your license directly from the manage page
    • Small polish pass on the BrowserList component

    Major release
    • Complete Safe Screen Share 2.0 rewrite with a cleaner modular architecture for background, popup, shared logic, and content runtime
    • Faster and more reliable blur restore on reloads, including early restore, stronger element matching, and better support for dynamic pages

    • New blur profiles with quick switching, profile-specific saved rules, and profile deletion
    • New SmartBlur tool to automatically detect and blur common sensitive information on the current page
