Build a note you can read at a glance
- Put the opening line and the three main points at the top.
- Use a checklist for the demo steps, including the step people usually forget.
- Increase the text size enough to read it without leaning toward the screen.
- Keep sensitive client details out of a note you might accidentally show.
Put the note near the app you’re showing
Float the main panel beside the meeting window, or attach a sticky note to the app or window. Resize it so it doesn’t cover the buttons you need during the demo.
Turn on Ghost Privacy and test the preview
- Enable Ghost Privacy in NotchPad.
- Start the screen share or recording in the app you’ll actually use.
- Inspect the audience or recording preview, or make a short test recording.
- Confirm NotchPad is excluded before opening any private material.
Ghost Privacy requests capture exclusion through macOS. Different capture methods can behave differently, so the preview check is part of the setup. If the tool still captures the note, share a specific app window that does not contain it, or keep your note on an unshared display.
Visibility and locking solve different problems
Ghost Privacy does not encrypt the note, lock the screen, or hide text from someone next to you. Lock a sensitive note when you finish. Use a password manager for credentials rather than putting them in a presentation script.
Keep the preparation for next time
Save the script in a project folder. Turn repeated instructions into snippets. If you use an AI app to draft the script, ask it to save the result in NotchPad, then edit it into your own words.
