Stops instantly upon any interaction.

Natural Inertia

Flick your cursor to send it gliding across large screens. Momentum feels natural and weightless.

Trackball Mode

Slide along screen edges like a virtual trackball. Stops naturally at corners.

Precision First

Zero interference with normal clicking or dragging. Your muscle memory stays intact.

A Tool, Not a Toy

GlideCursor is built with respect for your workflow. It runs quietly in the menu bar, uses negligible resources, and never changes behavior without your consent.

Requires Accessibility permissions to control the cursor.
No data is collected, stored, or transmitted.

Download for macOS

Requires macOS 14.0 or later. Free to use.

If GlideCursor fits your workflow, support is entirely optional.
Donations help keep the app compatible with future macOS versions.
