Use the Mac App Store for easy installation without Accessibility permission, or choose Direct for optional active-window movement and layout controls.
Choose how you install
Install and update through Apple. This edition does not request Accessibility and guides window movement through native macOS App Shortcuts.
Sandboxed / StoreKit 2 / App Store updates / No Accessibility requestInstall from NgSense and grant Accessibility only when direct active-window movement, focus, or layout controls are needed.
Developer ID + notarization / On-demand Accessibility / Website updatesCursorHop has one product identity inside each installation channel. Free and Pro are not separate installers, and choosing App Store or Direct does not create four products.
Both public channels are available now. Choose the Mac App Store when you prefer Apple-managed installation and no Accessibility request. Choose Direct when you want optional Accessibility-powered active-window movement and layout controls.
App Finder and channel-specific window controls are included in Free. Pro changes only the maximum managed display count.
All functionality available in the selected installation channel, forever free and unlimited in use.
Includes a one-month free trial. The feature set remains the same as Free.
Free and Pro use the same feature set. Upgrade only when you need CursorHop to manage more than two displays.
CursorHop supports both Mac architectures, but the window setup depends on the chosen distribution channel.
Both public editions support Apple Silicon and Intel Macs running macOS 14+.
If macOS reports no more than two displays for CursorHop to manage, Free already includes the complete channel feature set.
Pointer jumps do not need Accessibility. Direct asks for it only when active-window move or focus commands require it.
The sandboxed App Store build does not request Accessibility. Follow its guide to configure macOS App Shortcuts for window commands.
The installation path is deliberately short and keeps plan choice separate from package choice.
Use macOS 14 or later on an Apple Silicon or Intel Mac.
Select App Store for sandboxed distribution and StoreKit billing, or Direct for Developer ID distribution and on-demand Accessibility window control.
Free and Pro are plans inside the selected channel. Do not install separate Free and Pro packages.
Use the complete feature set with up to two managed displays. Upgrade only if the Mac needs to manage more displays.
Cursor jumping and App Finder are available in both editions. The main setup difference is how window movement is authorized.
The App Store edition does not request Accessibility. Follow CursorHop's guide to configure native macOS App Shortcuts for window movement.
CursorHop Direct can move and focus the active window after you explicitly grant Accessibility permission. Pointer jumps remain available without it.
Start with Free for up to two managed displays. Pro raises the limit to eight after a one-month trial without changing the edition's feature set.
Use these answers to choose a channel without turning Free and Pro into separate downloads.
CursorHop follows the displays and physical arrangement currently reported by macOS. Number shortcuts target the connected Screen 1-N, while direction shortcuts choose a display to the left, right, above, or below. This supports side-by-side, stacked, and mixed layouts without requiring a fixed monitor count.
Yes. Find Cursor, App Finder, Launch at Login, and supported window-layout actions remain useful on one display. A screen jump has nowhere else to go, but Find Cursor still pulses at the current pointer position so the command provides clear orientation instead of failing silently.
CursorHop dynamically follows the displays macOS currently reports rather than assigning permanent numbers to disconnected hardware. Docking, reconnecting, or changing a DisplayLink topology can therefore change Screen 1-N. Use Screen Overlay after the desk setup changes to confirm the current numbers.
No permission is required for pointer jumps, Screen Overlay, Find Cursor, or App Finder. The App Store edition never requests Accessibility. The Direct edition shows an explanation and Grant Permission action only when direct active-window movement, layout, or focus controls need it; those controls do not upload window content.
Repeat the initial or use the Up and Down arrow keys to cycle matching running apps and windows. Recently used targets come first, CursorHop remembers the latest choice for that initial, and it can restore a minimized main window when that app is selected.
Yes. App Finder can match a Chinese application name by its pinyin initial. If several running apps or windows share that initial, repeat it or use the Up and Down arrow keys to cycle the candidates.
They are two ways to install one product. Both include pointer navigation, Overlay, Find Cursor, and the full App Finder. The App Store edition does not request Accessibility and does not directly control other apps’ windows; its guide helps you configure native macOS App Shortcuts. Direct can request Accessibility for direct active-window movement and layouts. Free or Pro remains the plan inside either edition.
Free is permanently available, includes every feature in the selected installation channel, and manages up to two displays. Pro has the same features, includes a one-month free trial, and manages up to eight displays.
In the App Store edition, follow CursorHop’s setup guide to create native macOS App Shortcuts for the relevant window menu commands; CursorHop does not directly control those windows. In the Direct edition, choose Grant Permission when prompted, then use the configured direct window shortcut. Accessibility is required only for that Direct control path.
Yes. Modifier layers are configurable in Settings while the number, direction, Overlay, and Find Cursor patterns stay consistent. Current defaults include Control + Command for cursor actions and Control + Option + Command for App Finder. A yellow warning identifies combinations already owned by macOS or another app.
CursorHop supports macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It works with displays recognized by macOS, including common DisplayLink setups, but it does not install display drivers or create virtual displays.
Install from the Mac App Store, download Direct, or read the setup guide before choosing a window-control path.
