## About

smush animates your Mac’s cursor as it changes shape. The arrow eases into a hand over a link, or into a text cursor when you move over a paragraph. It’s a small customization for people who enjoy the little animations in macOS.

Set how long transitions take, or turn on Dynamic speed to shorten them when you move the mouse quickly. You can pause animations from the menu bar or with a keyboard shortcut.

Try it free for 14 days with no card required. A $4.99 USD one-time purchase covers up to three Macs.
