Working from home or stepping away from your desk? Don't let your computer fall asleep, lock you out, or change your status to "Away" on work messaging apps like Teams, Slack, or Skype! This app transforms your iPhone into an automatic mouse jiggler. Simply open the app, choose your preferred movement pattern, and place your optical mouse directly on your phone's screen. The app generates customized visual patterns that trick your optical mouse into thinking it's moving, keeping your computer fully awake and active. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: No Software Required: Perfect for strict corporate laptops. Since this works physically through your optical mouse, you don't need to install any shady software or USB drivers on your computer.

Prevent Screen Locks: Stop typing in your password every 5 minutes. Keep your PC or Mac awake effortlessly. Remote Control (PRO): Pair a second iPhone and stop the jiggler on the other phone from anywhere. See whether your paired device is online and running, and end its session with one tap — ideal when someone else started the jiggler or you need to stop it without walking back to the desk. KEY FEATURES: 6 Advanced Movement Modes: Choose from Soft Drift, Corner Hop, Orbit, Scanner, Micro Jitter, and Random Chaos to simulate natural or specific mouse movements. Fully Customizable Timers: Set exactly how long the movement lasts and the intervals between movements. Remote Pairing & Stop: Connect two phones via Bluetooth or a pairing code. You approve every connection, and either device can stop the other's session remotely. Smarter Session Handling: When you lock your screen, the active session stops automatically so status stays accurate. Works with Optical Mice: Highly optimized contrasting patterns designed specifically to be picked up by standard optical mouse sensors. Sleek & Dark Interface: Battery-friendly dark design that won't drain your phone or hurt your eyes. Download now and take control of your computer's sleep schedule!
