About

Take control of your online identity with MaskIt!

Ever wanted to browse social media, take a screenshot, or share your screen during a presentation without exposing your name and personal details? MaskIt is the ultimate privacy tool that lets you selectively blur or completely replace your identity on Instagram, Twitter/X, and LinkedIn.

With just a few clicks, you can instantly obscure your username, full name, and even a custom list of sensitive words (like your company or project names). Our goal is to give you peace of mind, allowing you to use the web on your own terms.

Key Features:
✨ Dual Masking Modes: Choose between a subtle Blur effect (which reveals on hover) or a complete Replace function that swaps text with a placeholder like [username].
🎯 Platform-Specific Control: Set different rules for Instagram, Twitter/X, and LinkedIn. What you hide on one platform doesn't have to affect the others.
🌐 Global Word List: Create a list of custom words to be masked everywhere, ensuring consistent privacy across all supported sites.
⌨️ Powerful Keyboard Shortcuts: Use Ctrl+Shift+X to instantly toggle all masks on or off for the current site, and Ctrl+Shift+H to force a re-scan of the page.
🔒 100% Private and Secure: MaskIt operates entirely on your computer. We do not track, collect, or store any of your data. Your privacy is our priority.

Perfect For:
Professionals who need to share their screen during demos without revealing personal profile info.
Content Creators making tutorials or live-streaming.
Privacy-conscious users who want an extra layer of anonymity while browsing.

Install MaskIt today and take the first step towards a more private and secure social media experience
