CleanPause
Pause your Mac keyboard and trackpad while you clean
CleanPause pauses keyboard input and trackpad gestures and darkens your Mac displays while you clean. No countdown: return with a corner hold, by typing done, or with a keyboard shortcut. Free for macOS 13+. Accessibility permission required.
Hi, I'm Ming, the maker of CleanPause. It gives the physical task of cleaning a Mac a simple pause. Start a cleaning session, wipe the keyboard and trackpad, then return when you're ready.
There is no countdown. Hold the corner ring for three seconds, type done, or use Control–Option–Command–Esc to end the session. The current Mac release is free, supports Apple Silicon and Intel, and requires macOS 13 or later and Accessibility permission.
I'd like to hear how the exit controls work for you and whether the permission setup is clear on first use.
CleanPause is an independent work on SideCourt, where people share what they make and others can try it and help it move forward.
