Start typing
PointerPause notices only that a key was pressed—not what you typed.
Type without accidental pointer interruptions.
PointerPause briefly suppresses trackpad and mouse input while you type, preventing stray clicks, cursor movement, and scrolling.
Stay in the flow. We’ll handle the pointer.
