Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m the maker of VibeCursor — a small macOS app that makes your cursor feel a bit more… alive. The idea came from a simple frustration: I spend most of my day on my Mac, but the cursor — something I look at constantly — always felt static and lifeless. I started experimenting with subtle motion and trailing effects, just for fun. But then I noticed something interesting — when recording demos or quick videos, the cursor suddenly felt much more expressive and easier to follow. That’s when it clicked: this isn’t just about aesthetics. For creators and developers, especially those making tutorials, walkthroughs, or YouTube videos, small cursor details can make a big difference in clarity and overall feel. VibeCursor is my attempt to turn that into a polished, lightweight tool — something that adds personality and delight to everyday work, while also making screen recordings more engaging. ✨ Smooth cursor trails 🎥 Great for demos, tutorials, and vlogging ⚡ Native, lightweight, and distraction-free I’d really love to hear what you think — does it feel helpful or distracting in your workflow? I’ll be around all day answering questions 🙌

Hello everyone!

Quick update: To celebrate Mother's Day, VibeCursor will be FREE ($0.00) this weekend starting Friday! I’ve decided to make my entire Mac tool suite (including DropToDo & PixelColor) free for everyone.
