Ghost Input: Record and Play

Description

Ghost Input records your keyboard and mouse, then replays it whenever you need. Fill in forms, test software, automate games or repeat the same steps every day: record them once and let Ghost Input do the clicking and typing. NEW IN 1.3 • A redesigned editor that turns raw input into readable steps: typed text, shortcuts, clicks, drags, mouse paths and scrolls. • Filters for keys, clicks, movement, scrolling and delays. • Undo for edits and deletions. • A countdown before playback, and a stop hotkey that works out of the box. RECORD WHAT YOU DO • Capture keystrokes, clicks, drags, mouse movement and scrolling, including trackpad and horizontal scrolling. • Start and stop with one button or a global hotkey (Control-Option-Command-R by default). • Recordings are named automatically, and you can rename them right in the list. EDIT WITH CONFIDENCE • See every step with its timing, and expand any group to fine-tune individual events. • Turn steps on or off, delete them, or insert delays. • Undo any change. PLAY IT BACK YOUR WAY • Replay at 0.5x to 10x speed, as many times as you like. • A short countdown gives you time to switch to the right window. • Position the mouse relative to your screen size, or relative to where the cursor starts. • Open an app automatically before playback, with an optional delay. STAY IN CONTROL • A floating overlay shows what is playing and how to stop it. • Stop instantly with a global hotkey (Control-Option-Command-period by default), from the menu bar, or, if you like, just by moving your mouse. • Keys and mouse buttons are released when playback stops, so nothing stays stuck. WORKS THE WAY YOU DO • Give every recording its own global shortcut. • Run recordings from the menu bar without opening the window. • Use them in Apple Shortcuts as part of larger workflows. • Export and import recordings, or drag exported files onto the window. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Everything stays on your Mac. No accounts, no analytics, no cloud. • One-time purchase. No subscription. HOW PEOPLE USE GHOST INPUT • Fill out forms: type it once, replay it next time. • Speed up testing: automate repeated steps in apps and websites. • Gaming: trigger complex sequences with a single key. • Set up your workspace: open apps and arrange windows with one shortcut. • Accessibility: make long or tricky actions easier. Ghost Input needs Accessibility permission to record and replay input. The app shows you exactly where to turn it on.

A big update focused on reliability and a much clearer editor. • Redesigned editor: recordings now read as steps (typed text, shortcuts, clicks, drags, mouse paths and scrolls) with timing and filters. Expand any step to edit single events. • New toolbar with clear Record and Play buttons. • Undo for edits and deletions, and the Delete key works in the lists. • Recordings are named automatically, and you can rename them right in the list. • Playback countdown, so you can switch to the right window first. • Built-in hotkeys: Control-Option-Command-R starts and stops recording, Control-Option-Command-period stops playback. Stop Playback is also in the menu bar. • Optional: stop playback just by moving your mouse. • No more stuck keys or mouse buttons when you stop playback. • More accurate replay of right-drags, Shift- and Command-clicks, and trackpad and horizontal scrolling. • Smoother recording and more precise timing. • Recordings are stored more safely, and edits save faster in large libraries. • Drag exported recordings onto the window to import them. • Clearer Accessibility setup, plus redesigned Settings and About. • New app icon and menu bar icon. The menu bar icon now adapts to light and dark menu bars.
