Description

TAKE BACK CONTROL OF YOUR WORKSTATION!!!
Mouse Mover is an app whose sole function is to "fake" mouse input to your computer. Useful for avoiding screen-savers/lock screens that are triggered by inactivity. This means you can stop entering your password 57 times per day!

DO NOT CONNECT your iPhone to your workstation. Just place your mouse over the app screen on your phone. The proprietary/patented imaging technology fools the mouse into thinking it is moving - deactivating the screen saver/lock screen. (You may need to experiment with the angle of the mouse.)

If you're giving a presentation, or just watching a movie, and you don't want your lock screen constantly popping up, the Mouse Mover is the perfect app.

Uses:
* Great for remote workers and telecommuters.
* Keep your chat software green during long lunches.
* Stop a screensaver/lock screen when you step away from your desk.
* Stop a screensaver/lock screen when attending a meeting.
* Great for presentations.
* Great for on-line training.
* Stop a screensaver/lock screen when watching a video.
* Keep your VPN up when inactive at your workstation.
* Keep workstation from going to sleep on long operations.
* Stop a screensaver/lock screen when your attention is on another console.
* Stop a screensaver/lock screen from activating during an installation or long operations.


Features:
* Optional deactivation timer - keep your screen up however long YOU want.
* Unlike USB devices, this app is not detectable by system admins.
* Includes settings page to customize the app for your mouse.
* Compatible with iOS-8, so you can use that old iPhone or iPod.

you must disable auto-lock when using this app.

Didn’t work for me - Updated in response to developer

Tried every setting and numerous mouse positions and nothing worked. This should come with a free 1 hour trial. If confident in their product, they would offer. They don’t because this doesn’t work. Waste of money.

I do not in fact own a corded mouse. Do you advertise this product to only work with corded mice? Likewise your excuse makes no sense. A mouse in use does not “go to sleep”. If the mouse were being properly jiggled it would not go dormant.

Developer Response ,

Please try an older wired mouse with a Red LED - most people have one in a drawer or basement from an old machine. I have found mice with the Red led's work best. I have seen some Blue LED work, but many do not. Also wireless mice tend to have issues as they will go to sleep to save battery life. If this resolves your issue, please update the review.

So easy, a mouse could use it!

I have an iPhone 6s with a large screen-covering case (its always smudged) and a Microsoft mouse. This app was so easy to use! I bought it, put it under the mouse and that was it. I worked immediately. I didn’t even have to change any settings. Five stars, whoever came up with this idea is brilliant! Best money I ever spent! And all my coworkers love it too! :)

Works Great

If you hold your mouse slightly off your phone screen, (I used the ‘Mystify’ pattern) there is a sweet spot where the mouse pointer starts to move it works great. But then you have to find something that will hold the mouse in that position each time. In my case I used a small piece of plastic to hold it up off the screen.
