- Worth noticing
- The site says Miso reads window bounds, not titles or contents, and does not require Screen Recording permission.
Field notes
The page says the app reads window bounds rather than window titles or contents, and claims zero permission prompts, accounts, or analytics; these are site statements, not independently verified here. Its listed system requirement is macOS 14 or later, for both Apple silicon and Intel. The page also describes moods that steer cat behavior and optional reminders for water, stretching, and eye breaks.
