Screen sharing

The HUD is excluded from capture at the OS level — and here is how to prove it yourself.

The MiPrep window is marked non-capturable by the operating system. Screen-share and screen-recording tools ask the OS for the screen; the OS composites the frame without the HUD in it. This is not a trick played on any particular app — it is the same mechanism a password manager uses to keep itself out of screenshots.

Verify it yourself, before it matters

Do not take our word for this thirty seconds before an interview.

  1. Start a meeting with yourself in Zoom, Meet, or Teams.
  2. Open MiPrep and start a session.
  3. Share your entire screen.
  4. Look at what the participant view shows.

The HUD should be absent from the shared frame while still visible on your own display.

What this does not cover

  • A phone or a camera pointed at your screen. Nothing software does can address this.
  • Someone physically behind you.
  • A proctoring product that runs as its own application on your machine and inspects what is running rather than what is displayed.

The exclusion covers what is captured from the screen. It does not make the application itself unknowable to software running on the same machine, and we do not claim otherwise.
