Feature · In the next app update

Swap your pointer for something fun.

Turn the plain arrow in your videos into a cat paw, a magic wand or a rubber duck. Each pointer has its own click, its own sound, and draws its own kind of line while you hold the button down. Pick one here and it becomes your pointer on this page.

How it works in the app

Pick one before you record

Choose a pointer in Settings › Recording, or from the pointer button on the recording bar.

See it while you record

Your pointer follows your mouse, clicks and draws as you go. The recording itself stays clean, so you can still change your mind.

Change it for any video

Pick a different pointer in the editor’s Cursor settings, or go back to your normal pointer.

⌘P to switch

Tap ⌘P for the next pointer, in the editor or while you record from any app. Hold ⌘P for your normal pointer.

Draw to point things out

Hold the button and move to draw. Each pointer draws its own kind of line, which fades away. You choose how long drawings stay.

Its own click sound

From a boop to a quack. Turn the sounds off if you’d rather have quiet clicks.

Any size

Make the pointer smaller, or up to three times bigger.

In the video you save

The pointer, its clicks and its drawings are in the preview and in your finished video.

Pro

Two are free

Squish Hand and Cat Paw come with the free plan. The other eight come with Pro.

Why a playful pointer?

In a video, the pointer is how people follow what you’re doing. A plain arrow is easy to lose on a busy screen. A big, bright pointer that bounces when you click is hard to miss, and drawing a quick circle round a button says “this one” faster than words.

For more ways to help people see what you’re doing, like zooms and showing the keys you press, see Cursor, clicks and zooms.

Questions

Does it change the pointer on my Mac?

No. Your Mac’s own pointer stays as it is. The playful pointer is added to your video, so you can change it or turn it off later.

Which pointers are free?

Squish Hand and Cat Paw are free. The other eight (Magic Wand, Boxing Glove, Pixel Pal, Alien Tentacle, Dino Claw, Robo Finger, Happy Brush and Rubber Duck) come with Pro.

Can I use one on a video I’ve already recorded?

Yes. Pick a pointer for the video in the editor and its clicks play straight away. Drawings need a recording made with this version or later, because older recordings didn’t save how long you held the button.

Can I turn the sounds off?

Yes. Each pointer’s click sound can be switched off.

Is the demo on this page the real thing?

It’s a web version made with the app’s own pictures and sounds, so you can try them. The app’s clicks and drawings are smoother, and they’re saved into your video.
