Frequently Asked Questions
Is this online mouse jiggler really undetectable?
Yes. Because Move My Cursor is a standard webpage, it does not interact with your local file system or registry. To an IT department, this looks exactly the same as having a tab open that is playing a video.
Will my screen turn off while the tool is running?
No. When Background Mode is enabled, the tool utilizes your browser's power-management APIs to request a continuous wake state.
Does this work on Mac, Windows, and Chromebooks?
Absolutely. It works flawlessly on Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox across macOS, Windows, ChromeOS, and Linux.
Do I need to leave this tab open?
You must keep the browser tab open, but you do not need to stay on it. By activating 'Background Mode', you can switch to other tabs or minimize the browser.
Is it free to use?
Yes, Move My Cursor is a completely free utility designed to help remote workers maintain their privacy.
