Use a large, prominent cursor to ensure your audience follows exactly where you’re pointing and much more
Enlarged Cursor
Ensure everyone on the call sees exactly where you're pointing. The enlarged cursor feature makes navigation and highlights clearer for your audience. The cursor auto-follows as you navigate, so everyone stays in sync.

FAQ
What is CaptureDisplay?
How much does it cost? Is it subscription based?
Capture Display is in its beta phase and at this point is absolutely free to use as of now. We are looking for feedback from our early users. In the future we may add a one time purchase option but it will never require a subscription.
Unable to launch the app
Since CaptureDisplay is not distributed through the App Store, you may encounter a message the first time you launch the app saying it cannot be opened because it’s not from the App Store. This behavior was introduced by Apple in one of recent MacOS releases To resolve this, simply right-click on the app and select "Open." This will allow the app to launch and prompt you to grant the necessary permissions.
Permissions Required
Since this app monitors keyboard shortcuts for quick actions and is used for screen sharing, it requires the following permissions:
- Input Monitoring to allow keyboard shortcuts
- Screen Recording. This permission allows the app to function as intended by capturing and modifying what’s on your screen
- Folder Access to save your pdf note files
These permissions are necessary for the app to function properly.
