## What it is

Click Ripples draws a ring under the pointer on every click. It shows in screen recordings and screen sharing, so viewers always see where you clicked.

Pick a style (Ring, Double, Glow or Dot), a size and a colour for each mouse button. More options adds the line, opacity, speed and a release echo.

Ripples work on their own: keep them on with every sound off, for calls and quiet rooms.

## Questions

Do ripples show in Zoom, Meet or other screen sharing?

Yes. They show in screen recordings and screen sharing, so people watching see where you clicked.

Can I have ripples without sounds?

Yes. Ripples have their own switch, and they keep showing in apps where sounds are quiet.
