An uncluttered distraction free workspace.
Focus Mode enables you to quickly hide all apps except the app you're currently working in. Once enabled, let Hides take care of business, so you can work. Focus mode helps you to target your attention on what is directly in front of you! It can be configured globally or for specific Apps, and is super easy to enable or disable.
It's not enough that Hides is super useful, it also has to be user friendly. It's a breeze to configure global keyboard shortcuts for all the main features. Once you've configured Hides just the way you like it, you'll never need to open it again!
Hides does one job, and does it well. There's no bloated features getting in the way. So it's never confusing, and it just works. Just the way all good software should be. It sits up in your menubar, waiting to get to work. But don't worry, it's not consuming resources.
What can it do, what do you need, and why is it useful.

Works as described.
Great app to clean up the screen view and help with focusing on the task at hand. Easy to switch on and off with a keyboard shortcut. I would like to see menu bar icon that will show what state Hides is in, for example Focus Mode Enabled / Didabled.
Create a distraction-free desktop/work environment to help you focus on your task; set keyboard short cuts to enable and disable the single-app mode or instantly hide the currently active app— it’s simple and fast, and has a small footprint. Highly recommended.
