About

Shake It On lives in your Mac's menu bar and keeps your computer awake by generating subtle, organic mouse movements that reset the system idle timer.

Unlike terminal commands or simple blockers, Shake It On uses intelligent conditions.

You can activate it only when CPU is above a threshold, specific apps are running, you're on certain Wi-Fi networks, external displays are connected, or audio is playing.

Smart pause triggers stop automatically when on battery, your camera is in use, a Focus mode is active, or the screen is locked.

It works everywhere: including corporate MDM-managed Macs, remote desktop sessions, and keeps Slack and Teams showing you as active. One-time purchase of $9.99 with free updates forever. No subscription. macOS 14 Sonoma or later required.

Lifetime Deal

$9.99 one-time. No subscription.
