Hints
Labels every clickable element of the focused window. Type a label to click it. Hold ⇧ to right-click, ⌘ to double-click or ⌥ to only move the pointer, or pick other modifiers in Settings.
⌘⇧J
Scroll
Scrolls the window with h j k l, half a page with d u, to either end with gg G. Tab moves to the next scrollable area.
⌘⇧F
Text search
Finds any text visible in the window, ignoring case and accents. Tab moves between matches and Return puts the cursor there.
Made to stay out of your way.
Gone when you move on
Switch apps with the mouse, ⌘-Tab or a window manager like AeroSpace and the labels disappear on their own.
Reads text you can't select
For terminals, PDFs and images, text search can recognize what is on screen. It's off until you turn it on, and nothing leaves your Mac.
Yours to adjust
Change the shortcuts or turn them off in the apps you choose, the modifier for each click action, the letters labels use, five label themes, sizes from 7 to 20 pt, Liquid Glass and scroll speed.
