How to hide Emergent help bot
Works on every website · takes about 10 seconds · free
Emergent's in-app help bubble is handy when you want it — and squarely in the way when you don't. It floats over the bottom corner of the workspace on every screen, right where preview panes and status bars live.
Why it gets in the way
When you're reviewing an app preview or reading long output, the launcher overlaps exactly the content you're checking. There's no built-in setting to move or minimize it per page.
The 10-second fix
HideIt is a free browser extension that hides any element you point at — including widgets inside iframes that normally swallow your clicks and open instead of hiding.
- 1. Install HideIt — free for Chrome, Firefox and Safari (register below to get the link at launch).
- 2. Turn it on — click the HideIt icon on the page that's bugging you. Until you do, HideIt can't see the page at all.
- 3. Click the widget — hover Emergent bot until the red outline wraps it, click, choose Every visit. Gone — and it stays gone, even if the site re-injects it.
The manual way (if you like pain)
You can open DevTools, find the element (an iframe pinned to the bottom-right of the workspace), and write a custom CSS rule in an ad-blocker. It works until the site changes its markup — HideIt's self-healing selectors handle that for you, and re-hide the element if the site sneaks it back.
Does hiding it break the site?
No — HideIt only hides what you clicked, nothing else. If you ever want it back, open the HideIt popup and un-hide it in one click, per site, per element.
