Hey Product Hunt 👋 CleanMode started with a fingerprint smudge and a 20-minute undo session. Every time I'd flip my laptop open to wipe the screen, my palm would hit the trackpad, the cloth would drag across the keys, and five seconds later I'd somehow opened Spotlight, triggered Siri, and changed my display resolution. I went looking for a fix. A few tools disable the keyboard — but the trackpad still fired, or the power button would sleep the machine mid-wipe. None of them blocked everything, and almost all were Mac-only. So I built CleanMode. One click blocks every input — keyboard, trackpad, mouse, Touch Bar, modifier keys, and the power button. Long-press anywhere to unlock. No config, no "almost works." It started on Mac and now runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux. There's a 7-day free trial (no credit card), then it's a one-time purchase from $4.99 — no subscription. I'd love your feedback, especially on the unlock gesture and anything you'd want blocked that isn't. Happy to answer anything in the comments! 🧼
