Is a mouse jiggler safe to use at work?

It's the first question most people have: is this going to get me in trouble? Here's a straight answer.

What a good jiggler does — and doesn't — do

A well-built software jiggler moves your cursor. That's it. It doesn't record your screen, log keystrokes, read your files, or send anything about what you're doing to a server. Virtual Mouse Jiggler only checks, over an encrypted connection, whether your subscription is active — nothing else.

Check your own policies

Every workplace is different. Some have explicit policies about presence tools; most don't. It's your responsibility to use the tool in a way that's consistent with your employer's rules and your own judgement. We provide a convenience tool; how you use it is up to you.

Use it responsibly

The goal isn't to fake a day's work — it's to stop a coloured dot from misrepresenting you when you step away for a legitimate reason. Used that way, it simply keeps your status honest to how remote work actually happens.
