Pokey App
Pokey is a tiny macOS menu bar utility that transforms your cursor into an animated, attention-grabbing pointer during screen shares. It works with Zoom, Google Meet, Loom and any app that shares the full screen. Users can trigger different poke intensities via hotkeys or clicks. The effect is visible only to viewers while the user retains normal cursor functionality. It requires no setup and works across multiple displays.
