Why not use something like @Amphetamine or @Lungo ?
Mouse Jiggler for Mac
Great question, Chris, thank you!
Amphetamine and Lungo prevent sleep by tweaking macOS settings, but Mouse Jiggler works differently - it simulates real cursor movement, just like a physical mouse jiggler device that many users already trust.
Since hardware jigglers are widely used and proven to work, people naturally feel confident that Mouse Jiggler will function the same way - without relying on system settings that some apps or remote sessions might ignore.
It’s built specifically for this purpose, with only the features users need:
Silent Mode – Prevent sleep without visible movement.
Click Simulation – Optionally mimic real user interaction.
Smart Deactivation – Stop automatically at a set time or battery level.
Unlike system-based solutions, Mouse Jiggler ensures activity is detected everywhere, making it a reliable and familiar choice for keeping your Mac awake.
Thank you again for your question, and let me know your thoughts!

@bohdanbilous like, is it to evade certain kinds of detectors? I understand that mouse jigging keeps a computer from going to sleep, but jiggling the mouse seems unnecessary if you can just set a system setting to prevent sleep.
There must be some value in the jiggling itself? e.g. a user can't toggle system settings but can install an app to jiggle the mouse to make it seem like they're working?

@chrismessina Unlike standard sleep prevention apps, Mouse Jiggler works in any scenario. There are a lot of apps and services (like below) don’t just check if the system is awake, they look for actual activity. That’s where Mouse Jiggler comes in.
Remote Desktop & Virtual Machines - Some apps like Citrix, VMware, and Microsoft RDP detect inactivity only through user input, not just system settings. Mouse Jiggler ensures the session stays active by providing subtle movement or silent mode to keep things running smoothly.
Cloud-based & Web Applications - Some time-sensitive platforms (e.g., security portals, auto-logoff dashboards, certain browser-based corporate tools) log users out if they don’t detect activity. Keeping the cursor moving bypasses these idle restrictions in a legitimate way.
Software Testing & Automation - Developers, QA testers, or IT professionals running automated tasks, scripts, or UI testing may need a non-intrusive way to simulate an active user.
Live Monitoring Dashboards - Some monitoring software (like stock trading apps, server dashboards, or real-time analytics tools) require occasional cursor interaction to remain fully functional.
Hope that answers your question and clarifies the distinct value Mouse Jiggler offers. Let me know if you have any thoughts - happy to discuss further.
