The newly released app 'Cats Lock' aims to address a common issue faced by cat owners: accidental keyboard inputs caused by their pets. Priced at $3, this Mac application allows users to easily lock their keyboard to prevent unwanted typing when cats walk, sit, or sprawl on it. Users can activate the lock either through a menu bar click or a keyboard shortcut, making it convenient to use. Additionally, 'Cats Lock' offers a selection of deterrent sounds to alert users when their cat has stepped onto the keyboard, with the option to record custom sounds. For those who prefer a more discreet experience, the app features a Stealth Mode, which operates without visual overlays or sounds, ensuring it won't disrupt activities like watching videos or attending meetings. The app automatically unlocks when the screen goes to sleep, adding to its user-friendly design. Created by indie developer Todd Alexander, 'Cats Lock' is compatible with devices running macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) and later, making it a practical solution for cat owners looking to maintain productivity while keeping their furry friends happy.
