Start typing
PointerPause notices only that a key was pressed—not what you typed.
Type without accidental pointer interruptions.
PointerPause is a motor-accessibility utility that briefly suppresses accidental clicks, dragging, and scrolling while you type.
Stay in the flow. We’ll handle the pointer.
Accidental actions pause
Clicks, dragging, and scrolling are briefly suppressed while the pointer remains free to move.
Pick up where you left off
After your recovery delay, your trackpad and mouse respond normally.

Private by design.
Quiet by default.
PointerPause runs entirely on your Mac. It notices when typing begins, but never reads, stores, or sends what you type.

PointerPause gives your trackpad and mouse a moment to wait while you type.
