DeskBlur

Less distraction. More room to focus.

A busy desktop can pull your attention in every direction. DeskBlur blurs and dims the background while keeping your active window clear. Your apps stay open. Your workspace stays yours.

FOCUS THAT FOLLOWS YOU Switch windows naturally. DeskBlur follows your active window, with smooth transitions that keep the background out of the way.

A GLANCE WHEN YOU NEED IT Move your pointer outside the active window to reveal the background. Move it back to restore the blur. You can turn this feature on or off at any time.

YOUR COMFORT, YOUR SETTINGS Use blur, dimming, or both. Adjust the dimming intensity and fade duration to suit your workspace, with a separate intensity for Dark Mode if you prefer.

CONTROL FOR EACH APP Choose a custom dimming intensity for individual apps, or pause DeskBlur automatically when you use them.

ONE SCREEN OR SEVERAL Choose how DeskBlur treats your secondary displays, so your workspace feels right across your setup.

ALWAYS WITHIN REACH Make quick adjustments from the menu bar, use keyboard shortcuts, and choose whether DeskBlur starts when you log in.
