Screen sharing
Can the interviewer see Ghost when I share my screen?
- No. Ghost's window is excluded from screen capture on macOS and Windows, so it doesn't appear in Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams screen shares.
Is Ghost hidden when I share my entire screen?
- Yes. Ghost stays hidden whether you share one window or your entire screen, on both Mac and Windows.
Does Ghost show up in screen recordings?
- No. Screen recordings skip Ghost's window for the same reason screen shares do.

- No. It's included on every pack, including the free 20 credits.
Is it allowed to use Ghost in an interview?
