Cursor Sparkles

Adds sparkles to your cursor

What is Cursor Sparkles?

"Cursor Sparkles" is a Chrome extension that transforms your regular cursor into a trail of appealing sparkles. With constant updates to improve performance, it offers options to select animations, adjust the quantity of sparkles and toggle the sparkle effect on or off. It also provides two modes: Trailing mode, where sparkles leave trails, and the old Follow mode, where sparkles follow your cursor.
