Gaze Guard: Your Personal Privacy Shield Secure your workflow with advanced face tracking technology. Gaze Guard is a menu bar utility designed to protect your on-screen data from shoulder surfers and wandering eyes. KEY FEATURES: • Smart Gaze Detection: The moment you look away from your screen, Gaze Guard blurs your content instantly. • Shoulder Surfing Protection: Detects if someone else is looking at your screen over your shoulder and activates privacy mode immediately. • Selective Blur: Choose specific apps to protect (e.g., Mail, Notes) while keeping others visible, or blur the entire screen. • Battery Efficient: Optimized with an Eco Mode to ensure minimal CPU usage while running in the background. • Privacy First: All face detection is processed on-device using Apple's Vision Framework. No camera data ever leaves your Mac. PERFECT FOR: • Working in coffee shops or coworking spaces. • Handling sensitive documents in open offices. • Anyone who values digital privacy. Note: Gaze Guard requires camera access to detect face orientation. No images are stored or transmitted.

What's New in Gaze Guard 1.0.4 Smarter App-Specific Protection When you select specific apps to protect, the blur overlay now respects your window layout. Other windows sitting in front of your protected app will naturally appear on top of the overlay — so the blur feels surgical rather than covering everything on screen. Improved Stability Various fixes to improve overall reliability and overlay behavior.
