Stop your screen from sleeping in one click — no install, no admin rights. Or download a real randomized mouse mover for Windows.
Keeps your screen awake and this tab alive in the background (wake lock + silent audio + picture-in-picture). Like every browser tool, it can't move your system mouse — for real cursor movement that resets the idle timer, use the free download below.
Need it to actually move your mouse and reset the system idle timer — so apps like Teams and Slack stay active? That has to run locally. This free app uses randomized, human-like movement and an on/off control panel in your browser.
Because this is a new site and the app isn't code-signed yet, Chrome and Windows show a caution prompt the first time — it's a reputation check, not a sign anything's wrong. The jiggler runs entirely on your own PC, collects no data, and only moves your mouse.
Rather not run an .exe? The in-browser keep-awake tool at the top of this page needs no download at all.
Use the online keep-awake tool above to stop your screen sleeping, or download the app for real mouse movement.
One click. The browser tool holds a wake lock and a silent audio loop; the app jiggles the mouse with randomized motion.
Your machine stops dimming, sleeping, or going idle until you turn it off. Toggle it any time.
Keep your screen and chat status from flipping to "away" during a call, a break, or deep reading.
Big downloads, renders, backups, or installs that fail if the machine sleeps midway through.
Watching a training video, reading a long doc, or presenting — no more screensaver interruptions.
An honest breakdown — because the right choice depends on what you need.
