What Phantom does

Phantom is LowLighter's capture-protection mode for the LowLighter app and its overlays. It gives the protected answer surface a dedicated presentation and connects that surface to GhostKeys, StealthType, and the Phantom system controls.

Phantom is available from its own workspace in the desktop sidebar. The page changes to the Phantom presentation so you can enable the mode and configure the controls that belong to it.

Enable or disable Phantom

  1. 1

    Open Phantom

    Choose Phantom from the LowLighter sidebar.

  2. 2

    Enable the mode

    Select Enable Phantom to activate the protected presentation.

  3. 3

    Configure the related controls

    Open Phantom Appearance or System settings when you want to change the protected surface or desktop behavior.

  4. 4

    Turn it off when finished

    Select Disable Phantom from the same workspace to return to the standard presentation.

Use the Phantom trial or Pro access

Signed-in users can try Phantom for 15 minutes without a credit card. The trial can be paused and resumed across sessions. Pro provides the full Phantom experience without the trial timer.

When Phantom is unavailable to the current account, the desktop explains the required account action in the Phantom upgrade flow.

Start with Phantom Appearance. It gives the protected answer surface its own border, opacity, text color, and text opacity settings.
