Keep a private reference window visible during a remote meeting without showing it to everyone else.

You can now keep Pocket Screen PiPs out of screenshots, screen recordings, and screen sharing.

For example, place notes or talking points near your camera and read them while maintaining better eye contact, while keeping the PiP visible only to you.

Thank you to everyone who supported the Pocket Screen launch and shared thoughtful comments and feature requests.

The feedback I received on Product Hunt was especially valuable. Based on those suggestions, I ve released Pocket Screen v1.4.0 today.

This update adds:

• Support for displaying up to two floating screens at the same time

• A keyboard shortcut to quickly switch a selected floating screen to the currently active window

• Improved window position restoration and behavior across multiple displays

Thank you again for all the thoughtful feedback on Pocket Screen.

Version 1.5.0 has now been approved and is available on the Mac App Store. Several improvements in this update were shaped directly by the feedback I received here, including requests for better performance control and more flexibility in how each floating window is displayed.

A user recently shared detailed feedback about how Pocket Screen behaved with Stage Manager.

That sent me down a much deeper technical path than I expected.

The straightforward implementation did not work: once the source window moved to the Stage Manager shelf, macOS returned only the small shelf preview instead of the original full-size window.
