macOS app that locks your keyboard in one click so cats can sit on it without typing; $2.99 one-time purchase on the Mac App Store.
Key Takeaways
Single-purpose macOS utility: one-click keyboard lock, no subscription, $2.99 flat.
Targets cat owners directly; branding is tight around the cat-on-keyboard use case.
No mention of auto-detection, hotkeys, or unlock flow in the source text.
Hacker News Comment Review
Commenters quickly noted that macOS already has a built-in lock shortcut, putting pressure on the $2.99 price to justify itself beyond convenience.
The top request is smarter behavior: automatic detection of keyboard mashing rather than manual lock/unlock, which the app does not appear to offer.
General consensus splits between “just use the OS shortcut” skeptics and pragmatists who see clear impulse-buy potential at $3 with the right pet-owner audience.
Notable Comments
@pdxandi: wants auto-detection of keyboard mashing to remove the manual lock/unlock step entirely.
