Why Drops

Not just a cursor effect. A living Mac.

Three Ripple Styles

Ink, Water, or Soft set a different style for left and right clicks. Each has its own feel, from a precise ink-drop to a spreading water wave.

Seven Colors

White, Sage, Slate, Sand, Rose, Sky, and Midnight. The ripple adapts automatically for light and dark backgrounds so it always looks right.

Presenter Mode

Speaking or recording? Switch on Presenter Mode for a 1.6× larger ripple at full intensity, so every click is impossible to miss on screen.

Modifier Key Display

A floating HUD shows ⌘ ⇧ ⌥ ⌃ whenever you hold a modifier key. It fades after 1.5 seconds perfect for walkthroughs and tutorial recordings.

Intensity Control

A single slider dials the ripple from a whisper to bold. Use it subtly during daily work or turn it up when you need every click to register on camera.

Multi-Monitor Ready

Drops follows your cursor across every connected display. Plug in as many monitors as you want ripples appear on all of them, every time.

Three styles. Infinite personality.

Ink drops a solid circle that blooms outward. Water sends concentric rings across the screen. Soft wraps the click in a gentle glow. Mix and match for left and right clicks.

Each style is tuned to feel natural at any speed quick clicks or deliberate ones.

Water ripple style on macOS

Your audience knows exactly what you pressed.

The floating HUD appears the moment you hold Command, Shift, Option, or Control. It sits unobtrusively in the corner, then fades on its own no clutter between keystrokes.

Pairs perfectly with Presenter Mode for full click-and-key visibility.

Modifier key display HUD

Lives in the menu bar. Out of the way.

Drops has no dock icon and no windows. Everything lives in a compact menu bar popover style, color, intensity, and toggles for Presenter Mode and modifier display.

Changes take effect immediately. No restart, no settings window.
