A ball hangs from your Mac menu bar on an elastic tether. Drag it, fling it, slingshot it. It bounces off your actual app windows, rolls along their edges and settles into the Dock. Cut the rope and it goes loose across the desktop. Real physics, not a canned animation, so it never does the same thing twice. One key hides it the instant somebody says your name. No account, no subscription, nothing leaves your Mac.

On long calls I end up peeling the label off whatever bottle is nearest. Does it stay quiet enough for a call with the mic on?

@yelyzaveta_kibets Completely silent, no audio anywhere in the app. Your bottle label never
stood a chance. :D
This instantly caught my attention for today's launch. I have ADHD, and I usually need something to tinker with while listening. haha I can also imagine my students using this.

@heyitsirenechan Thank you, that is exactly the case I built it for. Hands busy, ears free!

@avinashbussa The physical one might have better bounce, but mine has never rolled under the desk
mid-call. :D

Sooo interesting... I need a point system and a global leaderboard. It would be explosive.

@tizaolai886 Now THIS is a great idea. Let me look into this :)
Is there a way to download this on PC?

@alexander_knysh Not at the moment. Just Mac for now! Sorry.

@busmark_w_nika :D Sprint planning is the natural habitat for this thing, so consider Monday a field test.

@busmark_w_nika today's launch list feels like Sunday 🙈 but I love it, let's enjoy last calendar's summer day!
