Add sparks and lights to your cursor

If you are into customizing your desktop and want something a little out of the ordinary then you will probably like iCursor.

This mini application adds 20 different effects to your cursor, from circus lights to smoke, soap or snow. The majority of the effects are colored explosions that trail your cursor at different speeds and with different movements, like HyperSpace, Comet or SloQuantum.

iCursor includes five different custom tracks, however it's not very clear as to how you can create your own effect. It would nice to have a little guide to help users out here.

Once iCursor is installed, all you need to do is launch the program and select the desired effect from the drop down list in your menu bar. I advise you to test them all out and see the one you prefer. Be aware though that you might get a little tired, or dizzy after a while. That's why I don't recommend leaving iCursor on for too much.

iCursor provides 20 different effects to add pop to your cursor.

  • Pros

    • 20 different effects
  • Cons

    • Will make you dizzy after a while

User reviews about iCursor

by Ryan S

I use 4k monitor and native Retina 15 Pro display. After trying Mouse Locator, I find this is still very useful so I can glance at the desktop to see where my pointer is, decorated by the "Lighter" effect.Suggested improvements: work on secondary displays (it works on the 4k display when that is the only one), and adjust transparency so I can read underneath the effects.Thanks again after all these years!

Lacks any serious features. This is strictly a novelty for kids and pets. It lacks any real utility for the average user. I would use it if it could replicate Windows Mouse Trails. That's really what I've been searching for. I would pay good money for that app. Pros: Mezmerizes my kids and cat for 5 minutes. Cons: No user preferences or adjustments settingsWould like to see actual mouse trails like Windows.

Thank you. Thank you for this. This is very (maybe not useful) decorative. It is a very good decoration. However, how do I add an effect? Pros: -Clear to customize Cons: -Makes you dizzy after a while

not useful at all. I needed a tool to make my mouse cursor more visible. but this does not deliver. all we see is some bubbly disturbance of your desktop. the presets are neither use- nor beautyful and the effects are not working on secondary (external) monitors. Pros: - none Cons: - useless customization- useless presets- doesn't work on secondary monitors
