- For
- MacBook users who watch short-form video in browsers
- Worth noticing
- It says taps are detected by the motion sensor rather than the microphone, and non-reel pages are left alone.
Field notes
The page gives a three-step installation path using a DMG file and says the app runs from the menu bar without a Dock icon. It names Safari, Chrome, Arc, Brave, Edge, and Firefox as supported browsers, and says sensitivity and delay can be adjusted in a small panel. The site also states that tap detection uses the motion sensor and that nothing is recorded or sent.
