Mouse Jiggler

While screensavers may be a nice addition to your desktop and have the role of protecting older monitors, the truth is that they can be a nuisance when you want to watch a movie or longer video. Nevertheless, the good news is that you can manage a stubborn screensaver that keeps launching at inopportune moments with a simple mouse click.

Mouse Jiggler is a tiny piece of software designed to simulate small movements of the mouse and hence, prevent screensavers from popping up, even when you are not in front of your computer.

The application does not require setup, so you can start using it as soon as you download it to your computer. It does not need configuration and all you need to do is activate the jiggle function and allow the app to do the rest.

The idea behind the application is to monitor the mouse movements and, as soon as it detects that it has not been used for a while, it moves the cursor back and forth. It is important to note that it does this without changing the window focus or rendering the mouse or keyboard obsolete. Consequentially, you can continue opening windows, typing or playing various games without any interruptions.

You will be happy to learn that after the program is activated, it gets minimized and can be accessed from the system tray. You do not have to worry about it appearing as a window or in the taskbar and hence, it constitutes less of a distraction.

Mouse Jiggler is a simple and straightforward application that has the role of emulating discreet mouse movements from time to time and hence, preventing screensavers from disrupting your activity.
