Jiggler Mouse — Free Download. Simulates cursor movement

Jiggler Mouse is a desktop application for macOS and Windows that performs scheduled cursor movements to prevent the activation of the screen saver, system lock, and the switch to an Away status in communication applications like Microsoft Teams and Slack. The software offers four configurable movement patterns and operates in the background through a one-time payment license of $5.99 USD, requiring no user account and collecting no personal data.

Prevents system sleep. The main function prevents the operating system from activating the screensaver or entering sleep mode, keeping the computer awake through cursor movements that simulate user activity. This is particularly useful during long process executions, downloads, or presentations where the screen needs to remain active without direct human interaction.
Maintains active status in Microsoft Teams. The program executes tiny cursor movements that the Microsoft Teams application interprets as active user presence, preventing the automatic switch to the Away status during phone calls, meetings without direct keyboard interaction, or brief pauses away from the computer.
Prevents Away status in Slack. Similar to its function with Teams, the application generates subtle pointer shifts that Slack detects as continuous activity, keeping the user's status as "Active" even during long periods of reading or working on documents where the mouse isn't used constantly.
Natural Drift movement pattern. This mode simulates a natural, almost imperceptible drift of the cursor, mimicking involuntary hand movements on the mouse. It is designed for environments where maximum discretion is required and one does not want the cursor movement to be noticeable to others.
Small Jiggle movement pattern. Performs small vibrations or shakes of the cursor at regular intervals. This pattern is more visually detectable than Natural Drift and is effective on systems where extremely subtle movements are not enough to prevent the screen saver from activating.
Circular movement pattern. The cursor traces circular paths with a configurable diameter. This movement is clearly visible and useful for visually verifying that the application is working, or in setups where a more defined movement is needed to trick more sensitive inactivity detection systems.
Quiet Move movement pattern. This mode executes background movements with the least possible visual interference, prioritizing that the cursor movement does not interrupt the user's work or move active windows or interface elements they are interacting with.
Configurable time intervals. The user can define the frequency of the cursor movements, adjusting the wait time between each shift to adapt to the operating system's sleep policies or the specific absence detection settings of installed applications.
Activation and deactivation via keys. The application allows starting the movement simulation with a single click and stopping it immediately by pressing the ESC key, providing quick and direct control over its operation without needing to access the main application interface.
Quiet background operation. Jiggler Mouse is designed to run without interfering with other applications, using minimal system resources and without showing windows or pop-up notifications during its normal operation, once configured and activated.
Cross-platform perpetual license. The one-time payment of $5.99 USD grants a lifetime license that includes both the macOS and Windows versions, with rights to all future updates at no additional cost and no periodic renewals.
Key activation without user account. After purchase through the LemonSqueezy platform, a license key is sent via email, which the user enters into the application for permanent activation, without requiring account creation, personal data registration, or mandatory internet connection.
Compatibility with remote desktop environments and VPN. The application maintains its functionality regardless of the connection to virtual private networks or its simultaneous use with remote access tools, as the activity simulation occurs locally on the computer's operating system where it is installed.
Complete absence of data collection. The software operates entirely locally without collecting usage statistics, system information, movement habits, or any other user data, guaranteeing privacy by not transmitting information to external servers or incorporating telemetry systems.

The development of Jiggler Mouse began around the year 2020. The application's creators, a team of independent developers with experience in productivity applications for corporate environments, programmed the software using the Python programming language for the core logic and Electron for the cross-platform graphical interface, allowing native compilation for both macOS and Windows operating systems. The choice of Python was due to its ability to efficiently interact with the low-level APIs of operating systems responsible for cursor control, while Electron facilitated the development of a unified user interface.
