Doesn’t work…
I tried various combinations of settings but never got the app to move my cursor at all. System still went to sleep.
Also lowers screen brightness during use and doesn’t reset the level after exiting the app.
Great concept but fails in execution.
Works for me!
I have a wired optical mouse with a red laser and this worked perfectly the second I put my mouse on it! No complaints.
It works!
It’s hard to see but it is moving my wireless mouse.
Does NOTHING!
Adjusted settings and it does nothing. My laptop still times out and the screensaver comes on. Worthless
