Quick update since launch: We’ve started releasing the first dynamic cursor packs for Cursor Craft.
This is something v2 was designed to support. Instead of only using a static cursor image, a dynamic pack can update over time or react to changing information.
It’s still early, but this opens the door to cursor packs that feel more alive - useful, playful, or contextual.

I’d love feedback: Would you use dynamic cursors on your Mac?
And what kind of dynamic cursor would actually be useful instead of distracting?

Every demo GIF I record, the cursor is the one thing that looks wrong in the final frame. Does a custom one show up in screen recordings?

@yelyzaveta_kibets Thanks for pointing this out! I’d love to look into it and see what might be causing the issue. Which tool are you using to record your screen?
Some screen recording tools handle the OS cursor differently, which can affect how the custom cursor appears in the final recording. For example, I just tested this with QuickTime and the cursor works as expected.

If you let me know which tool you’re using, I’d be happy to dig into it and see what’s happening.

@mbirang Appreciate you recording that, it looks right. So it's my export step, not your app. I'll rerun mine against your clip and come back with specifics.
The animated packs are the part I'd be most careful with. A cursor is the one element on screen that's meant to disappear into your hand, and motion pulls attention back onto it, so a pack that looks great in a store preview can be exhausting an hour into real work. If you can let a pack animate on click and sit still while idle, that's probably where the good ones end up.
yeah @asadmalik901 this is the bit i keep coming back to. the cursor is the one thing you track without ever looking straight at it, so the second it starts moving on its own youre watching your own pointer instead of the work and it drives me nutsss.
