Extension summary

Analyze keywords

This extension hides your mouse when idle over videos. YouTube™ and HBO Max and others have this built-in already.

Supported Websites: ✔ Hulu ✔ Vimeo ✔ Dailymotion ✔ and many more

You can also set a keyboard shortcut to manually hide the cursor (hovering over video or fullscreen not required).

Contact me if there's a specific website you'd like me to add specific timeout settings for. By default the idle time is set to 2 seconds after the last mouse movement. YouTube, for example, has a 4 second idle time so that the mouse hides when for the player interface gets hidden too.

⚠️ Troubleshooting and Notes: ▸ It appears that Chrome extensions that hide the mouse cursor require the mouse to be moved after the pages loads. I haven't found a way around this. ▸ Some website video players resist cursor hiding. I found a work-around for fullscreen videos but I'm not aware of a solution when videos are not fullscreen.
