What is HideNow?

HideNow

So, you know how sometimes when you're working hard, a quick break can actually help you focus better later? But the last thing you want is for your boss or your parents to catch you slacking off when you're supposed to be on an important project or hitting the books. That’s where HideNow comes into play!

A Handy Tool for Hiding Windows

HideNow is a cool little program that does some neat tricks. It can minimize or shut down a window whenever it spots movement from your webcam. Imagine being able to quickly hide whatever you’re working on just in time!

Versatile Features

This tool isn't just about hiding stuff. It can also switch windows around, open new applications, and even rename windows you've got open! That makes it pretty handy for multitaskers.

Sensitivity of the Motion Detector

One thing to keep in mind is that you can't really adjust the motion detector settings. During our tests, it seemed a bit too sensitive at times. The type of camera and lighting in your space definitely play a part in how well it works.

Caution with Opening Applications

If you decide to use the “Open Application” feature, be careful! Sometimes HideNow might open multiple instances of the same program if it’s designed that way.

No Profiles or Settings Saving

Right now, there's no way to save your settings or set up profiles for different situations. So every time you close the app, all those custom actions disappear! It's something to think about if you're counting on it for regular use.

A Simple but Limited Utility

Overall, HideNow is pretty straightforward and can definitely be useful in certain situations. However, its reliability might not be top-notch since the motion detector can't be adjusted and some key features are missing. If you're interested in giving it a try, check out this link here!
