# HushNotes for Mac

> Floating sticky notes that stay out of screen shares.

HushNotes keeps notes above every app, full-screen ones included, while hiding them from screen sharing, recordings and screenshots. A shortcut captures selected text from any app, and another hides every note at once. Notes are local, with optional iCloud.
