Mouspose not working with M1 chip and Big Sur ?!?

Mouseposé
1

I got a new Macbook with an M1 chip and Big Sur a couple of months ago. I just installed “Mousepose-4.2b3-Boinx-(10268).app” but it still doesn’t work like it used to.
Meaning: all I get is a red dot around my cursor when I click, together with an anouncement “Powered by Mouseposé” in the top left corner? - But I can’t see the program anywhere? The Option+CMD+ESC
Combination also doesn’t show the application?
Where can I find the mousepose preferences-window so that I can enter my license number and configurate the program?
I was hoping I could use Mousepose also in MS Teams - Sessions if I want to point out things while sharing my screen - I hope this is possible once I have managed to install the program properly?

Eagerly awaiting your feedback,
Kind regards,
Frank

I just found out, but I can hardly believe it: is the mousepose-icon really supposed to look like this?:

And where can I enter my license number?

Phew, things are getting better after all, now there suddenly is an Icon visible in the top menu bar:

mousepose-icon2

And I also managed to configurate the program and enter the license number.

So the only questions left are:

  • Will there be a non-beta version available soon?
  • Will mousepose also work with different online meeting software when sharing your screen?

This might be a bug?

  1. Mouse click-sound
  • I activated a short-cut for the “Mouse clicks”-function including the “Click Sound”-Feature
  • I deactivated the function via the keyboard shortcut
  • the red dot is not shown any more but the click-sound can still be heard - which shouldn’t be case, I guess?

Hi @newsfranklin66 Thanks for giving the beta version a good shakedown and for reporting your findings.

The new version will be out as soon as we have fixed the issues you (and others) reported.

  • Will mousepose also work with different online meeting software when sharing your screen?

It should. But let me know if you find any that doesn’t work.
