Great app by a great developer

I was looking for something to aid my YouTube video and here it is, after trying out several apps, this came in as a definite best and I instantly went on to purchase the Pro version. The best thing about it are the hotkeys, which work just perfectly for me to live adjust the size/alpha and also the type of cursor ! It is almost amazing.
I checked out the other apps this developer has on the appstore and they're quite impressive. I just installed 5 out of the 15 tools he has put out there. What's great about these apps he has out there is that they're really concise and does only what is needed to be done. I almost would like to "follow" him on the appstore if there is a way to do so.
This is my second ever review on the app store. I'm a big fan, Hikitsuzuki Gambatte Kudasai !
Great for remote presentations.

Great app. Free version does a nice job with the "spotlight" effect.
Great for displaying spreadsheets, project management and data apps where you need to draw attention to a screen area.
I paid for the full version to support a great product although I typically only use the spotlight.
Indispensable

I regret not reviewing sooner, but have been overwhelmed with pandemic. A colleague prepared instructions for recording vidoes from PowerPoint, but it relies on features that don't work or work poorly on macOS. I use instead QuickTime screen recording and ScreenPointer for pointing. It works flawlessles. Absolutely indispensable for my online teaching. Thanks!

Doesn't seem to work. Even after purchasing the pro edition, I can only use spotlight which can't be unselected. I can select green laser but it does not show up. It's possible the issue is that this app isn't fully compatible with the latest Mac OS.
Horrible

Does not work whatsoever. Does not come with instructions. This is an utter waste of your time.
Nice pointers, bad implementation

I used to like this tool until I realized that the app will overtake my arrow keys, meaning that pressing arrow keys would simply change the type of pointer instead of performing the original functions of these keys. How am I supposed to change slides while presenting?? (I don't remember running into this problem when I tried this app a few weeks ago. Wonder if this is a poorly implemented new feature introduced in a recent update?)
Great idea however ...

I used the trial version which only has a spotlight (which is fine). I couldnt get it to work with Zoom when I share screen a Power point presentation. The spotlight pointer appears on my screen butis not broadcast to my class online. The other bug is that my mouse cursor ocassionally disappears when I switch back from the Screen Pointer. This makes it unreliable for presentations.
Great app

The spotlight tool is awesome as is the ability to change the size of the circle by scrolling. I lead discussions of artworks and the ability to direct the viewers attention on the screen is critical. Affordably priced compared to some of the others out there.
The free pointer doesn't really give an idea of your product

Simple to use. I bought the pro version which gives me more choices. I teach an online class and this really helps.
