### 4/5 — When it works, it’s amazing

*2025-01-21*

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.

### 4/5 — Doesn’t work. Waste of money

*2023-01-23*

Current review: After trying 3 different mouse devices, I’ve finally found one that works with the app. 1 out of 2 of my Bluetooth Red-LED devices was the one that worked. I do have to have the mouse on an angle for it to take effect.

Previous review: I adjusted the apps settings, my phone settings and my mouse settings and still couldn’t get it to work. Waste of time, do not buy this app

**Developer response:** I am happy you were able to get it to work. Thank you for the stars; it gets frustrated when people try the app and give up and  I know it works because I use it myself daily. 

Original Response: Please try an older wired mouse with a Red LED - most people have one in a drawer or basement from an old machine. I have found mice with the Red led's work best. Also try rotating mouse at 45degree angle. I have seen some Blue LED work, but many do not. Also wireless mice tend to have issues as they will go to sleep to save battery life. If this resolves your issue, please update the review.

Thanks for the stars! Please update your title.

### 1/5 — Would give no stars if possible

*2022-10-24*

Does not work, no way to get a refund, App Store, remove this developer

### 1/5 — What a load of s£!t

*2022-10-04*

What a load of s£!t

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2022-09-14*

Unfortunately it doesn’t work with optical mouse .

### 1/5 — Doesn‘t work

*2022-09-09, version 1.0*

Nothing more say.

### 1/5 — Unable to Disable

*2022-06-09*

My iPad is not useless at this point because not only did this app not work for me but I cannot make it stop.  When you click support, that is not helpful either.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2022-05-13*

Tested it with a variety of setting changes, cursor doesn’t move at all.

Bad app, just plainly does not work.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t not work at all

*2022-03-16*

Old wired red LED light mouse. Does not work on any setting at all waste of money and such a disappointment. The old Acreen Killer Saver worked great and it was free. They shut that down to make money. Fine. But at least make it as good as the old one. This is a scam.

### 4/5 — Works pretty well….

*2022-02-09*

It works pretty well with my red LED mouse, but I had to make the spot pattern finer than the default for consistent results.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2021-12-03, version 1.0*

Did adjust the settings several times and not working. Sorry but your app is scam

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-10-20, version 1.0*

I have a wired, red light mouse. Tried every pattern and a multitude of configurations. It does NOT WORK. I want a refund.

### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me - Updated in response to developer

*2021-10-15*

Tried every setting and numerous mouse positions and nothing worked. This should come with a free 1 hour trial. If confident in their product, they would offer. They don’t because this doesn’t work. Waste of money.

I do not in fact own a corded mouse. Do you advertise this product to only work with corded mice? Likewise your excuse makes no sense. A mouse in use does not “go to sleep”. If the mouse were being properly jiggled it would not go dormant.

**Developer response:** Please try an older wired mouse with a Red LED - most people have one in a drawer or basement from an old machine. I have found mice with the Red led's work best. I have seen some Blue LED work, but many do not. Also wireless mice tend to have issues as they will go to sleep to save battery life. If this resolves your issue, please update the review.

### 1/5 — Don’t Bother !!

*2023-01-03*

This is a scam. No matter what kind of mouse you gave, this doesn’t work. Just a rip off of $2 from those of us stupid enough to buy it without reading the reviews.

### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me, even with wired, red laser mouse.

*2022-12-11, version 1.0*

I tried this app exactly as they recommend, with a wired red laser mouse and it still did nothing. Not a good purchase.

### 1/5 — Straight up doesn’t work

*2022-12-03*

Doesn’t work, no matter what settings are tried. Seems like the creator is in the right track but it still needs work.

**Developer response:** Please try an older wired mouse with a Red LED - most people have one in a drawer or basement from an old machine. I have found mice with the Red led's work best. Also try rotating mouse at 45degree angle. I have seen some Blue LED work, but many do not. Also wireless mice tend to have issues as they will go to sleep to save battery life.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2023-01-16*

It moves the mouse as advertised.

### 5/5 — Works  Great with Red LED Mouse 11/10/22

*2022-11-12, version 1.0*

Almost passed on the purchase due to all the 1 star ratings. Had a red LED mouse available so, gave it a shot. Worked just as it should! 
Tried a corded mouse without the red LED. Could not get it to work. Fiddled with it a few minutes on different settings and nothing. 
Bottom line. Recommended to friends but, stressed the need for a red LED mouse.

### 5/5 — works on OLED display type

*2022-09-27*

### 5/5 — Working

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2021-11-26*

I use a corded red led mouse. Works perfectly with zero effort. Well done!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2021-02-25, version 1.0*

Just works! You might need to adjust the settings, but that‘s easy.

### 5/5 — Works Great

*2020-11-17*

If you hold your mouse slightly off your phone screen, (I used the ‘Mystify’ pattern) there is a sweet spot where the mouse pointer starts to move it works great. But then you have to find something that will hold the mouse in that position each time. In my case I used a small piece of plastic to hold it up off the screen.

### 5/5 — Worked will old dell wired led mouse

*2020-03-20*

Used the Mistify option on my Iphone.  Worked perfectly. Need to use LED mouse.

**Developer response:** I am glad you are find­ing this app use­ful, please tell your friends - I am gratified my app can help the country at his time.

### 5/5 — Worked great with Lenovo mouse

*2020-01-21*

Saw some people had issues with Logitech but my Lenovo mouse worked with it perfectly

**Developer response:** I am glad you are finding this app useful, please tell your friends.

### 5/5 — Works as described

*2020-01-14*

I got this to stop my work computer from logging off while I walk away for a few minutes 

Works fine without issues

**Developer response:** I am glad you are finding this app useful, please tell your friends.
