Twitter / X FAQ

Does StreamBlur work with Twitter/X's built-in screenshot tool?

StreamBlur works at the browser level - it blurs secrets in the actual page content. Any screenshot tool (browser built-in, OS screenshot, Snipping Tool, ShareX, etc.) will capture the already-blurred content. The blur happens before the screenshot, not after.

What about screen recordings and video tweets?

Yes! Since StreamBlur operates in real-time on the page, screen recordings (OBS, Loom, native screen recorder) capture the blurred version. Perfect for quick demo clips on X.

I already posted a screenshot with a key exposed. Can StreamBlur help?

StreamBlur prevents future leaks - it can't retroactively blur an already-posted image. If you've leaked a key, rotate it immediately in your provider's dashboard. Then install StreamBlur to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Does it blur content on twitter.com itself?

StreamBlur scans all browser content for secret patterns. If someone posts a raw API key in a tweet, StreamBlur would blur it on your screen. But the main value is protecting your own dashboards and code before you screenshot them for posting.

Can I temporarily show a blurred value?

Yes. Toggle Stream Mode off with Alt+Shift+S to temporarily reveal all values. Just make sure you toggle it back on before taking any screenshots!
