When it works, it’s amazing

Every once in a while, the screen automatically goes to setting screen which makes the times out the app and the laptop. It’s been happening more often lately but when it does work as it’s supposed to, it’s amazing.

Does NOT work at all!!

I tried all the app settings and used it on an iPhone and an iPad, and this doesn’t move the cursor at all. 100% waste of money!!

FAQ

What does the Mouse Mover app do?

The Mouse Mover app "fakes" mouse input to your computer, preventing screen-savers and lock screens that are triggered by inactivity. This means you won't have to re-enter your password as often when you step away from your workstation.

How does Mouse Mover work?

You place your mouse over the app screen on your phone. The app uses imaging technology to trick the mouse into thinking it's moving, which deactivates the screen saver or lock screen. You may need to adjust the angle of your mouse for optimal performance.

Is Mouse Mover free to use?

Based on the provided information, Mouse Mover is a paid application. It does not have in-app purchases or advertisements, indicating a one-time purchase model.

What are the use cases for Mouse Mover?

This app is useful for remote workers, telecommuters, and anyone who needs to step away from their desk without their computer locking. It's also great for presentations, online training, watching videos, or when performing long operations that might otherwise cause the workstation to sleep.

What devices is Mouse Mover compatible with?

The app is compatible with iOS-8, meaning it can be used on older iPhones and iPods. Users are advised to disable auto-lock on their device when using this application.
