Tznius View — Modest Browsing

Tznius View helps you browse the web modestly. With one click it hides — or blurs — the images, background images, and videos on the websites you visit, so you can read the news, shop, research, and get things done while guarding your eyes (shmiras einayim). Everything happens privately inside your own browser. Nothing you view is sent anywhere, there are no accounts, and there is no tracking. WHAT IT HIDES • Images on the page (photos, avatars, banners) • CSS background images — hero sections, headers, and banners that other tools miss • Overlay backgrounds drawn with ::before / ::after layers (common in page builders) • Videos What's new in 1.2.0 • Now also hides ads and embedded frames (iframes) — while keeping reCAPTCHA and payment forms working • Hides images inside shadow-DOM widgets that older versions couldn't reach • Click-to-reveal now toggles both ways — click a hidden image to show it, click again to hide it • New option: show a small text link beneath a hidden image that's a link (e.g. a PDF), so you can open it without revealing the image • Reliability and performance improvements HOW IT LOOKS — YOUR CHOICE • Neutral placeholder — keeps the page layout and shows a calm, blank tile • Blur — heavily blurs the image • Remove — collapses the image entirely MADE TO BE PRACTICAL • A floating on/off button sits quietly in the corner of the page (you can move it to any corner, or turn it off and use only the toolbar). • A toolbar popup gives you every setting in one place. • Turn it OFF for a specific site you trust, while keeping it ON everywhere else. • Keyboard shortcut: press Alt+Shift+M to hide or show anywhere. • Optional "click to reveal" lets you tap a single hidden item to see just that one. • The on-page button and placeholder wording are available in English, Hebrew, and Yiddish. • Starts hidden by default, so a slow-loading page never flashes images before they are hidden. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Tznius View does not collect any data. It makes no network requests, contains no analytics, and never transmits the pages you view or anything about them. Your settings are stored with Chrome's built-in preferences sync so they follow you across your signed-in Chrome — and nowhere else. GOOD TO KNOW • Tznius View hides ALL images rather than only "images of people." On the open web there is no way to mark images, and browsers cannot reliably analyze most images (for security, images loaded from other sites are locked). Hiding all images is the dependable, private way to browse modestly. • Small background images (icons and sprites) are left alone so site layouts and buttons keep working. • Some websites load background images only as you scroll; the extension re-checks on scroll and when the page finishes loading, so a background may appear for a brief moment before it is hidden. • Browser pages such as the Chrome Web Store and chrome:// pages do not allow extensions to run, so media there cannot be hidden (a browser restriction, not a bug). WHO IT'S FOR Anyone who wants a calmer, more modest web — built with the Jewish community in mind, and free for everyone to use. Questions or feedback? Visit https://eliyahna.com/
